6G technology is the forthcoming advancement in wireless communication, set to build on the

capabilities of 5G. It aims to deliver significantly higher data speeds, ultra-low latency, and increased
reliability. Key innovations in 6G include integration with satellite networks for global coverage,
utilization of terahertz frequencies for enhanced performance, and the incorporation of artificial
intelligence and advanced computing to create intelligent, self-optimizing networks. The vision for 6G
is to establish an "Intelligent Network of Everything," where diverse devices, systems, and
applications are seamlessly interconnected and adaptive. This evolution is expected to revolutionize
sectors such as healthcare, transportation, and urban planning, fostering an era of unprecedented
connectivity and smart environments.
 INTRODUCTION

6G (sixth-generation) technology represents the next frontier in wireless communication, building

upon the advancements of 5G.

It aims to deliver unprecedented performance in terms of speed, latency, connectivity, and

reliability, enabling revolutionary applications and industries. 6G is expected to achieve data rates
of up to 1 Tbps and ultra-low latency in the range of microseconds, leveraging technologies such
as terahertz (THz) communication, advanced AI integration, and intelligent network management.
seamless connectivity for billions of devices, holographic communication, extended reality (XR),
and support for massive Internet of Things (IoT) ecosystems.

It also focuses on energy efficiency, spectrum optimization, and security enhancements. The
technology will likely drive innovations in sectors like healthcare, autonomous transportation,
smart cities, and Industry 5.0.

Although 6G is still in its research and development phase, with expected deployment around
2030, its transformative potential could redefine global communication networks and societal
progress
The first ever 6G wireless cellular mobile communications symposium took place in March 2019 and
can be framed into one big vision statement of ubiquitous wireless intelligenceSouth Korea was the
foremost nation to adopt substantial 5G deployment on a large scale for approximately 85 cities with
86,000 5G base stations as of April 2019. However, 85% of the 5G base stations were located in six
cities, including Seoul, Busan, and Daegu, where a 3.5 GHz (sub-6) spectrum in distributed
architecture with deployed data rate speed tested speeds in the range of 193 to 430 Mbit/s. In general,
close to 65% of the world’s population are estimated to gain access to 5G superfast 5G Internet
coverage by the end of 2025.
