Expected Features and Benefits of the 6G Technology
As the world continues to embrace the benefits of 5G, researchers and engineers are already looking ahead to the next generation of cellular networks.
High Speed Network
With the growing demand for internet data and the increasing use of multiple devices in everyday life, wireless companies are rushing to provide robust and flexible cellular networks that can compete with traditional broadband internet providers. The 6G technology promises to deliver even faster data transfer speeds and lower latency.
One of the primary features of the sixth-generation wireless network will be the use of untapped radio frequencies. Researchers are exploring ways to transmit data across waves in the hundreds of gigahertz or terahertz ranges, which could allow for astonishing data transfer speeds.
Although no frequency over 39GHz is currently utilized in 5G, engineers are hoping to leverage the massive quantity of unused spectrum to enable faster and more efficient communication.

Freer Spectrum Efficiency
Spectrum frequency refers to the range of radio frequencies used to transmit data over wireless networks. It is measured in hertz (Hz) and determines how much data can be transmitted over a given distance. Different frequency ranges are used for different types of wireless communication, such as cellular networks or Wi-Fi.
