A group of companies from Japan tested the world's first high-speed wireless device for sixth generation (6G) cellular networks.
At an altitude of 100 meters, they were able to achieve a data transfer rate of 100 Gbit/s to a distance of over 90 meters. This is 10 times more than the maximum for the fifth generation of mobile communications (5G). This speed, for example, allows to simultaneously stream five HD movies in a second.
Test results show that the 6G wireless device transmits data at 100 Gbps indoors using the 100 GHz band and outdoors using the 300 GHz band.
Currently, the 5G standard is the most relevant wireless communication standard, and its support is implemented in most modern smartphones.
The main difference between 5G and 6G is the different frequency ranges of the electromagnetic spectrum used by devices of different standards. Operating in higher ranges provides higher speeds.
