CCTV News: On March 12, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology held a meeting and stated that it will expand the large-scale application of 5G and accelerate the 6G R&D process. What new experience will 6G bring to us?
6G: Faster speed and supports more emerging application scenarios
6G is the sixth-generation mobile communication technology. Simply put, 6G is a more powerful communication technology, and its goal is to provide faster speeds, lower latency, higher reliability, and support more emerging application scenarios.
Ding Haiyu, deputy director of China Mobile Research Institute, said: "In the future, for example, in remote meeting scenarios, it can provide a holographic image, which can allow everyone to feel an immersive experience. For example, in robots, 6G can combine it with artificial intelligence-related technologies through its high speed and low latency to provide better services."
In the 6G era, signals will cover deserts, oceans, and air
In the 6G era, land mobile communications and high, medium and low-orbit satellites are organically integrated. For places like deserts, oceans, and air, where ground signals are difficult to cover, 6G networks can cover them, achieving seamless connection across the entire domain.
"AI+6G" will reshape multiple industries
The deep integration of 6G and artificial intelligence will reshape multiple industries, bringing us unprecedented opportunities and changes.
6G supports quantum-level data transmission, and doctors can complete precision surgical operations through tactile gloves thousands of miles away. Digital twin cities supported by 6G can map the operating status of all transportation and energy systems within a radius of 500 kilometers in real time, and the prediction accuracy is increased to 99.7%. The dynamic energy network supported by 6G can achieve 0.01-second power scheduling, which can make the renewable energy utilization rate exceed 92%.
From the market size, the cloud network integration market driven by "AI+6G" has broad prospects. In addition, the commercial use of 6G technology will drive the rapid development of related industrial chains, including communication equipment manufacturing, chip research and development, application development, etc., forming a trillion-level new market ecosystem.
At present, countries are accelerating their layout around the commercial targets in 2030, and China is also accelerating the development of the 6G industry.
Ding Haiyu, deputy director of China Mobile Research Institute, said: "This year's standardization work of 6G will be fully carried out to promote more in-depth research on key 6G technologies and some scenarios related to the future."
