New Report Pins 6G Success on Novel Benchmarks Extending Beyond Speed, Latency, and Mobility - Seite 2

Native AI, or ubiquitous intelligence, represents a holistic, foundational, and harmonized AI framework that spans all network layers and domains to foster more comprehensive optimizations and new services, like distributed computing and adaptive trust.

Ubiquitous Connectivity reflects seamless, uninterrupted connectivity throughout urban and rural environments, enabled by 6G architecture of combining access technologies like satellite, cellular, and Wi-Fi to create a consistent fabric of connectivity.

“6G presents a unique opportunity to introduce new innovative features in the cellular network, with sensing, native AI and ubiquitous connectivity opening new frontiers for redefining the role of the mobile operator in the broader technology space,” said Dimitris Mavrakis, Senior Research Director at ABI Research. “The ITU has set ambitious goals with its IMT-2030 vision, and the telecoms market is now aligning to ensure that 6G builds on the success of 5G and creates these new opportunities.”

“At InterDigital, we work with world renowned universities to advance 6G-related research. Our engineers hold leadership positions in both pre-standards and standards bodies and play an important role in guiding the development of critical technologies to ensure the potential for 6G builds upon a robust and well-realized 5G-Advanced foundation,” added VP and Head of Wireless Labs Milind Kulkarni.

Outlining important milestones on the 6G roadmap, the report highlights that 6G concepts like ISAC, native AI, and ubiquitous connectivity will be available to consumers and enterprise by 2030. Until then, preliminary 6G studies have begun with 3GPP Release 19 and will continue in 3GPP Rel 20 between 2025-2027. Release 21, between 2027 – 2029, will likely represent the first phase of 6G standardization, to be followed by early deployment of 6G capabilities as early as 2029.
