The IEEE Xplore Innovation Spotlight features articles on cutting-edge topics handpicked from the IEEE Xplore Digital Library of more than 6 million technical documents.
The ever-increasing demands for mobile broadband and expansion to vertical industries (automotive, satellite, internet of things) continue driving the development of wireless technology. The next major step in the evolution of 5G towards the sixth generation (6G) mobile networks is called 5G-Advanced.
As the global demand for mobile communication services increases and new application scenarios arise, higher-level requirements for mobile communication capabilities will drive the development of the sixth generation (6G) of the mobile communication system.
If we solve forecasted computing challenges, 6G can transform how we do business, manage and operate infrastructures, and live. 6G technology, combined with intelligent surfaces, can deliver low latency and multi-gigabit connectivity.
Top industry players are already gearing up for mobile networking’s sixth generation as a new industry survey finds that 6G will raise the bar even higher, delivering what prior generations could not.
