'Never too early to start'

Sunghyun Choi, Head of Advanced Communications Research Center, said in a statement that it’s never too early to start preparing for 6G since it typically takes around 10 years from start of research to commercialisation of a new generation of communications techlogy. Sunghyun said that company has already launched research and development of 6G techlogies by building upon experience and ability accumulated from working on multiple generations of communications techlogy, including 5G.

“Going forward, we are committed to leading standardisation of 6G in collaboration with various stakeholders across industry, academia and government fields,” he added.

white paper highlighted architectural requirements of 6G to resolve issues arising from limited computation capability of mobile devices and implementation of AI right from initial phase of techlogy development. candidate techlogies that could be essential to satisfy requirements for 6G include use of terahertz (THz) frequency band, vel antenna techlogies, advanced duplex techlogies, and evolution of network topology.
