NVIDIA Sionna Research Kit: Democratizing AI-Native 6G Research with Real-Time, Accelerated Wireless Development Platform

NVIDIA Sionna Research Kit is an open-source platform for 6G research that uses GPU acceleration and real-time testing. It runs on the NVIDIA DGX Spark and is built on the OpenAirInterface (OAI), providing a complete base station using software-defined radio and 5G core network. The platform enables researchers to accelerate AI, ML, signal processing algorithms, and ray tracing on a unified memory architecture, and is open for experimentation across layers. With over 540 scientific publications referencing Sionna, it has been successful in making rapid prototyping accessible to researchers and developers.
