Chinese Lab Makes Magnificent Strides in 6G Development With 100Gbps Wireless Data Speed
It took a while for 5G technology to make its way to the public and it has not taken over the world just yet. With that said, 6G technology has already made impressive progress. According to the latest, enormous strides were made by an institution in China where the lab succeeded in 100Gbps 6G wireless data transfer speeds. Scroll down to read more details on the subject.
The latest tests were conducted by the 25th Institute of the Secondary Academy of China Aerospace Science and Industry. The breakthrough was achieved on a terahertz level which is classified as one of the most essential elements of the standard. If you are unfamiliar, terahertz or THz caters to a wider bandwidth which would translate to enhanced speeds and performance as far as wireless transmission is concerned.
Take note that 6G might take a while before it is publicly released. In terms of values, the test successfully completed 100Gbps wireless data transfer in 10GHz transmission bandwidth using the wireless backhaul technology. The technology is expected to deliver latency lower than optical fiber networks. Currently, users would prefer wired fiber cables over wireless transmission due to the lack of faster speeds. Using THz bands, 6G will easily be able to better compete against fiber networks. Ultimately, the concept of wired networks would be obsolete. However, it is too early to make assumptions as it requires a lot of time and funding for the technology to finally see daylight.
As for what we expect, 6G would finally open doors for 1Tbps data transfer speeds but this alone would not be enough as current spectrums must be improved to support the standard. With that said mobile communication frequency bands are also being updated to mmWave and
