Field trials including Japan’s national space agency JAXA and communications in an urban traffic context leverage the power of the supercomputer Fugaku

TOKYO, July 21, 2022 (Fujitsu PR) — Fujitsu today announced that it conducted successful large-scale electromagnetic wave simulations for a series of use cases in different industries using a cloud-based application for the supercomputer Fugaku⁽¹⁾.

Fujitsu envisions that this new analysis solution will help address issues related to electromagnetic interference between electronic components and communications equipment for customers in the space and urban transportation fields. To demonstrate its capabilities, Fujitsu conducted simulations for use cases in these two fields from January to March 2022 and confirmed the effectiveness of the analysis solution as a cloud service between April and July 2022.

TOKYO (JAXA PR) — Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (President: Hiroshi Yamakawa, JAXA) and Hitachi Shipbuilding Co., Ltd.
