NEW DELHI: The Army has established the Signals Technology Evaluation and Adaptation Group (STEAG), a specialized technology unit dedicated to researching and assessing advanced communication technologies such as AI, 5G, 6Gmachine learning, quantum technologiesand more for defense purposes.
STEAG will focus on developing customized technologies across wired and wireless systems, including electronic exchanges, mobile communications, Software Defined Radios (SDR), Electronic Warfare (EW) systems, 5G and 6G networks, Quantum Technologies, Artificial Intelligenceand Machine Learning.
The pioneering unit aims to leverage cutting-edge solutions and collaborate with academia and industry to identify suitable defense applications.
STEAG will conduct technical scouting, evaluation, and development of core ICT solutions, while providing user interface support through the maintenance and upgrade of contemporary technologies.
Eye on China
The Chinese military is anticipated to prioritize the gradual integration of 6G technology, foreseeing its pivotal role in adapting to upcoming military transformations.
With 6G, operators stand to gain enhanced command over unmanned military assets, which are projected to assume a central role in future conflicts.
Notably, in fields like drone technology and medical sciences, the advent of 6G is poised to revolutionize critical networks, heralding significant transformations.
Importance of 6G
Recognizing the effectiveness of network-centric warfare, there is a pressing need to introduce crucial technologies to bolster overall operational efficiency.
The Indian Armed Forces are crafting advanced military software, incorporating Artificial Intelligence-driven decision-making tools and predictive analytics.
While this technological advancement builds upon the foundation of 5G, the imminent arrival of 6G promises to further elevate intelligence and operational capabilities, both in scale and precision, for future battlegrounds.
