Japan unveils world’s first 6G device that’s extremely faster than 5G
Technology has progressed significantly as internet connectivity improved worldwide.
It enables our devices and apps to become more efficient for practical use.
If we want to take digitalization to the next level, we must elevate global connectivity first. Nowadays, we have 5G internet speeds, but we need something more.
Fortunately, Japanese firms have developed the world’s first 6G device, bringing this future of unprecedented internet connectivity closer to reality.
How did Japanese firms make this 6G device?
Online connectivity developer DOCOMO’s official press release shares more details about the 6G project.
It explains that DOCOMO, NTT Corporation, NEC Corporation, and Fujitsu have been working on this device since 2021. Each firm handled the following research and development parts.
DOCOMO analyzed wireless system configurations for 100 GHz telecommunications applications. Also, it created wireless transmission equipment with data delivery rates of up to 100 Gbps across a 100-meter range.
NTT Corporation, Japan’s premier telecom provider, developed high-end 300 Ghz devices that can channel 100 Gbps per channel over 100 meters.
NEC, a Japanese IT firm, produced a multi-element active phased array antenna (APAA) with more than 100 antenna elements.
Fujitsu, a Japan-based electronics company, created semiconductors that can amplify signals in the 100 GHz and 300 GHz bans with high output and efficiency.
As a result, they created the world’s first 6G device. Interesting Engineering explains its capacity lets one stream five HD films simultaneously every second.
