Integrated photonic ultrawideband real-time spectrum sensing for 6G wireless networks.
Article in Nature communications, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 1 paper.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Real-time spectrum sensing (RT-SS) is an essential technology for the upcoming sixth-generation (6G) networks, enabling dynamic spectrum management to support emerging integrated sensing and communication (ISAC) applications. However, conventional electronic and photonic RT-SS solutions face challenges in achieving ultrawide measurement range, compact size, and low latency, simultaneously. Here, we demonstrate an integrated photonic RT-SS system covering microwave to sub-terahertz bands on a thin-film lithium niobate (TFLN) platform. The TFLN chip integrates a broadband electro-optic (EO) modulator for signal loading, an EO microring filter bank for high-speed parallel frequency-to-time mapping, and an EO comb for channel referencing. The system achieves an analysis bandwidth of 57.5 GHz and measurable frequency up to 120 GHz, at a low latency of < 110 ns. The RT-SS system is further validated through a proof-of-concept ISAC demonstration, where a radar adaptively accesses underutilized spectral regions for high-quality ranging under dynamic communication interferences. Our work provides a compact solution for high-efficiency spectrum management in 6G ISAC networks.
