Introduction to 6G
5G may be the star of wireless communications now, but 3GPP and researchers have already turned their attention to 6G.
And that’s not really too surprising, even though 6G may be as much as eight years away. That’s because a future with 6G technology provides amazing possibilities despite sketchy details now.
Experts in this field are excited over the revolutionary technologies associated with 6G. But they warn that global collaboration among stakeholders is essential for 6G to manifest as anticipated.
In other words, the integration of vertical associations such as 5GACIA and 5GAA with 3GPP standardization development organizations is an absolute must.
Public and private entities must also step up to ensure that all assets forming 6G systems are interoperable.
Public and private players will also be required to comply with standardized security evaluation criteria as well as the smallest asset in the end-to-end supply chain in support of the minimal set of approved security requirements.
Despite 6G’s somewhat long trip before it arrives, 6G initiatives underway globally and corresponding investments paint a very encouraging future for this innovative architecture.
The thing about 6G that peaks interest is how it will bridge the physical and cyber worlds, or as one analyst puts it:
“6G will shift from connected people and things to connected intelligence.”
Current projections call for 6G to hit a maximum speed of one terabit per second (Tbps), which is 100-times faster than 5G. In terms of frequency, 6G looks to elevate from 5G’s frequency of 60 kilobits and reach 95 kilobits.
6G will use more advanced radio equipment and a greater volume and diversity of airwaves than 5G, including an extremely high frequency (EHF) spectrum that delivers ultra-high speeds and huge capacity over short distances.
All 6G networks will have integrated mobile edge computing technology, not an add-on like current 5G, providing benefits such as improved access to AI capabilities and support for sophisticated mobile devices and systems.
It’s also predicted that 6G wireless sensing solutions will impact government and industry approaches to public safety and critical asset protection, such as threat detection, health monitoring, and air quality measurements.
That means organizations can anticipate greater decision-making capabilities using real-time information, improving the responsiveness of law enforcement officials and first responders.
Autonomous driving is one of the main use cases in which 6G is expected to play a critical role by enabling greater accuracy and reliability. The now released IEEE 2846, a new standard for autonomous vehicle (AV) safety, provides an important step in advancing the mass testing of AVs in the U.S. Looking further ahead, 6G and future networks will be needed to drive an AV society.
