According to the report, the remaining satellites have been sent for commercial purposes, while a special satellite has also been sent into space for testing on 6G.
The latest 6G communications system will operate on a high frequency called Terahertz, which will be many times faster than 5G.
According to the report, Dr. Mahiar, a professor at the University of Sydney, has said that the speed of 6G technology will be one terabyte per sec. He said that the telecom industry has not yet taken any steps to use this technology.
The next-generation mobile access technology, which won’t have formal specifications worked out for a number of years, has started to gain momentum as major industry players back a launch as early as 2030.
