A year ago, NVIDIA open sourced its Aerial wireless software, joining Sionna and a broader suite of open source tools for accelerating next-generation 6G network development. Together, they give researchers a foundation for testing ideas, comparing results and building on each other’s work — connecting simulation and AI training with experiments on real over-the-air wireless systems.
Today, researchers and developers are using these tools to build 6G-ready networks that do more than just transmit data — receiving signals more effectively, keeping robots and autonomous systems connected when it matters most, and adapting in real time as devices move through the world.
Over the past year, global developer adoption of NVIDIA AI Aerial and NVIDIA Sionna software has grown 10x, while NVIDIA’s open source 5G/6G tools have surpassed 1 million downloads. More than 8,000 research and academic institutions worldwide are using these platforms.
The projects emerging today offer a view of how future networks could look. Each addresses a different challenge, but together point toward a broader ambition for building AI-native 6G networks that deliver connectivity, computing and sensing over a converged software-defined platform for billions of people, machines and agents.
