From Vision to Validation: Ericsson Unveils the “Superbrain” of 6G with First Live OTA Trials at MWC 2026

Ericsson showcased the world's first pre-standard 6G OTA trial at MWC 2026, demonstrating a software-defined, cloud-native architecture that delivers ultra-low latency, very high uplink capacity, and AI-native capabilities. The company announced strategic collaborations with Qualcomm (validating 400 MHz carrier bandwidth, 30 kHz subcarrier spacing, and cmWave spectrum tests) and Intel (integrating cloud/compute for AI-driven Cloud RAN and core), and unveiled ISAC technology enabling base stations to sense and track unconnected UAVs for smart-city, airspace security, and drone logistics applications.
