Ready, 6G Needs Global Cooperation

6G Cannot be Developed in Isolation

6G is widely predicted to be commercially available around 2030. China, the U.S., Japan, and European countries have already released their 6G development plans in quick succession. Meanwhile, experts in the field of communication agree that cooperation and sharing are vital for the development of 6G.

Spurring Ahead with 6G Networks Places China in Driver's Seat

The Chinese government has announced bold plans to forge ahead as a global leader in the research and development (R&D) of 6G mobile networks, which is expected to be five times faster than peak 5G networks and dramatically upgrade key technologies integrated with the next generation of wireless internet. The Chinese Academy of Information and Commercial Technology (CAICT) hosted a press conference in the capital city to introduce its recently published White Paper on June 5.

China is already recognized as the world leader in 5G and that status will likely stay the same for 6G in the decade to come. The nation aims to commercialize 6G by 2030, according to the Global Times. China’s Mobile companies – China Mobile, China Unicom, as well as China’s largest telecom equipment manufacturer ZTE have invested into 6G R&D starting in 2019. Washington hopes to surpass Beijing here, but they are a year behind schedule jumping into 6G research in 2020. China Unicom and ZTE have signed a cooperation agreement to boost R&D for 6G.

6G: The Next Horizon

6G is the next-generation advanced mobile communications system, but it will go far beyond communications. 6G will serve as a distributed neural network that provides communication links to fuse the physical, cyber, and biological worlds, truly ushering in an era in which everything will be sensed, connected, and intelligent. This in turn will lay a solid foundation for Intelligence of Everything in the future.

HUAWEI AND ZTE HELP CHINA TAKE THE LEAD IN 6G TECHNOLOGY

In the field of 5G, China has become a leader. It is not only the first country in the world to commercialize 5G in 2019, but also has a 70% share of the global 5G connection network in 2020. However, for China, this was a hard win. And it naturally cannot lose this hard-won advantage. So what is China doing now in terms of 6G development?
