A Japanese consortium has unveiled a 6G prototype that can transfer data at 100 Gbps, which is 20 times faster than the current 5G technology. The device is capable of covering distances over 300 feet.
The 6G prototype utilizes different frequency bands for varying environments—100 GHz bands for indoor speeds and 300 GHz bands for outdoor speeds.
Despite the high speeds, the use of higher frequency bands may limit the signal’s ability to penetrate through obstacles such as walls and rain, potentially affecting performance in certain conditions.
