- Researchers in Japan have achieved data transfer speeds of 100 gigabits per second, up to 500 times faster than the average 5G speed.
- The new test used high frequency wavebands to transmit data over 100 meters.
- The technology is expected to enable new applications such as holographic communication and enhanced VR experiences.
A new record for 6G
In Japan, a consortium of companies has developed the world’s first wireless high-speed 6G device, which can transfer data at speeds of 100 gigabits per second. In tests, the device was able to transmit data not only indoors, but also outdoors at distances of more than 100 meters.
While 5G remains at the forefront of wireless communications and is found in nearly every new smartphone, researchers are already working on building the next generation, 6G, which will involve a move to even higher frequency bands in the electromagnetic spectrum, offering significantly faster speeds. These higher frequency bands, from 100 GHz to 300 GHz, offer faster transfer speeds but also bring challenges, such as increased interference from the environment.
The potential of 6G technology
This technology has the potential to revolutionize how we use mobile devices and experience virtual reality (VR) and mixed reality (MR). The increased speeds could enable new technologies such as holographic communication and much smoother VR experiences. However, this will require an entirely new infrastructure for transmitting and amplifying signals, requiring new antennas on smartphones and VR devices.
