New Delhi: Global 6G connections are expected to reach 290 million in the first two years of service, but carriers will need to resolve network interference problems arising from the use of high-frequency spectrum, a report said on Tuesday. .
The use of this high-frequency spectrum in 6G will be a key technology to deliver throughput speeds 100 times faster than current 5G networks.
But cellular technology has never used spectrum bands in this range before, and the most pressing concern for carriers is minimizing this network interference, or ensuring reliability, according to a new report from Juniper Research. The goal is to minimize the risk of creating a weak 6G network.
“Initial 6G coverage will be in the most geographically populated areas to serve as many users as possible. Therefore, RIS (Reconfigurable Intelligent Surface) technology will will be key to delivering valuable 6G services to both consumer and business customers in the coming years,” said study author Alex Webb.
RIS is a technology that reduces the impact of interference to network services from large obstacles such as buildings.
This is achieved by intentionally reflecting and refracting 6G mobile signals, allowing data packets to navigate around physical obstacles.
“With the 6G standard becoming more clear in 2025, RIS technology needs to be an immediate priority for development,” the report said.
However, due to the geographical spread of some 6G networks, operators will need to implement AI to monitor and adjust RIS configurations in real-time to take full advantage of the technology, the report said. I’m warning you.
