GreenBoys Posted August 26, 2024 Posted August 26, 2024 From 1G to 5G, and then to the emerging 6G, each iteration is not just about digital “+1”, but also a comprehensive transformation from technology to application. The standard latency of 5G is in the millisecond range, while the transmission latency of 6G is expected to reach the microsecond level. Why is 6G not just faster than 5G From 1G to 5G, and then to the emerging 6G, each iteration is not just about digital “+1”, but also a comprehensive transformation from technology to application. The most intuitive upgrade to 6G is probably a qualitative leap in data transmission speed. In theory, 6G can increase data transmission rates to over 100 times that of 5G, reaching tens of gigabytes or even terabytes per second, “said Liu Guangyi, chief expert of China Mobile Research Institute. Downloading a 1GB movie in a 5G network environment takes at least 3 seconds. In the 6G era, this time will be compressed to less than 1 second or even 0.03 seconds. Lower network latency is also one of the key advancements in 6G. The standard latency of 5G is in the millisecond range, while the transmission latency of 6G networks is expected to reach the microsecond level, which is one thousandth of the time it takes to blink an eye, “said Liu Guangyi. The leapfrog improvement in latency will greatly enhance the performance of many real-time applications. What is even more exciting is probably the incredible fusion power of 6G. 6G will provide three types of fusion: the fusion of communication and perception, the fusion of communication and artificial intelligence, and the fusion of heaven and earth. Compared to 5G, the number of connected nodes in 6G networks has greatly expanded, and the number of connected terminal devices will also increase exponentially. In the future, the objects connected by 6G will not only be humans, but also ubiquitous intelligent agents, robots, etc. “Liu Guangyi further explained that 6G networks, with their ultra-high connection density, can connect hundreds of devices per square meter, thus achieving deep interaction between the physical world and the virtual world. https://btw.media/it-infrastructure/6g-and-the-plan-to-connect-the-world-intelligently/
