6G, the sixth generation mobile communication standard, is one of the focuses of global attention today. How far is China’s 6G technology advanced? How far is it from us ordinary people? The reporter recently learned from the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology that China will accelerate the development and innovation of 6G technology and realize commercial use around 2030. The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology guided the establishment of the 6G Promotion Group to provide policy guarantees for the innovative development of 6G and promote the formation of a unified global standard for 6G.

Wang Zhiqin, leader of 6G Promotion Group:

6G technology is actually a new technology that is updated in the 5G generation, and mobile communication is a generation every ten years, so for 6G, its commercial time is basically around 2030, and its standardization time will be in 2025.

For ordinary people, when it comes to 6G, the most basic feeling is that it will be faster than 5G, but Wang Zhiqin told reporters that 6G is not just a “fast” word.

Wang Zhiqin, leader of 6G Promotion Group:

After 5G, if we talk about speed improvement now, in fact, we will feel that it is not necessary. In the future, the objects of 6G service are more social management and social governance, and more biased agents.

It is understood that the 6G network will be a fully connected world with integrated terrestrial wireless and satellite communications. The future 6G network will not only be faster and more reliable than 5G, but also need to promote the integration of mobile communication with artificial intelligence, perception, computing and other cross-field development.

China began to carry out 6G technology test work last year, and this year has carried out research on 6G system architecture and technical solutions. On December 5, China’s 6G promotion group released relevant technical plans, which will provide a technical path for 6G from the Internet of everything to the Internet of everything.
