On November 6, 2020, China successfully launched an experimental test satellite with candidates for 6G technology into orbit, along with 12 other satellites, using a Long March 6 launch vehicle rocket.
Read moreWhat is the difference between 5G and 6G technology?
While 5G promises download speeds many times faster than current 4G LTE networks and significantly lower latency times, 6G is set to raise the bar even higher, with speeds estimated at 100x faster than 5G and upped bandwidth to keep consumers more connected than ever before.
Read moreWhat is the future of 6G technology?
6G will operate on terahertz (THz) bands from 100GHz to 10THz, delivering a peak data rate of 1000 gigabits/second with air latency lower than 100 microseconds . 6G will be 50 times faster than 5G, 100 times more reliable, offer wider coverage, and support 10 times more devices per square kilometer.
Read moreDoes 6G technology exists?
Technically, 6G doesn’t exist yet . But theoretically speaking, it could end up being a lot of things, building on current network and technology trends to help make a completely new type of internet.
Read moreHas 6G network been launched?
China has successfully launched what has been described as “the world’s first 6G satellite” into space to test the technology . It went into orbit along with 12 other satellites from the Taiyuan Satellite Launch Center in the Shanxi Province.
Read moreWhat technology does 6G use?
6G internet is expected to launch commercially in 2030. The technology makes greater use of the distributed radio access network (RAN) and the terahertz (THz) spectrum to increase capacity, lower latency and improve spectrum sharing.
Read moreWho is leading in 6G technology?
Chinese researchers say they have achieved a record data streaming speed using a revolutionary technology that could help China take the lead in the global race for next-gen wireless communication, or 6G.
