The Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) has today handed out \u00a328m to three universities (York, Bristol and Surrey) to help them team-up with major telecoms companies, including Nokia, Ericsson and Samsung, to both design and build future 6G based mobile broadband networks.<\/p>\n

The 6G standard is currently still in the early R&D phase, thus we don’t expect to see the first commercial builds until around 2030. But it is widely expected to be aiming for theoretical peak data rates of up to 1Tbps<\/strong> (Terabits per second) – or 1000Gbps if you prefer – and may be able to harness radio spectrum up to the TeraHertz<\/strong> (THz) bands, while also using AI optimisations and other changes to improve network efficiency.<\/p>\n

NOTE:<\/strong> Terahertz (THz) radiation is more widely defined as the region of the electromagnetic spectrum (EM) in the range of 100GHz (3 mm) to 10THz (30 \u03bcm) – between the millimetre and infrared frequencies. By comparison, 5G<\/a> was designed to work between 450MHz and up to 52GHz, with top theoretical speeds of up to 20Gbps.<\/div>\n

However, hitting such speeds in the real-world is a different ball game, due to various reasons, such as the highly variable mobile environment (weather, buildings and device choice etc. can all impact signal quality), the economic cost of needing to deploy a denser and more complex network (mobile operators end up preferring lower frequencies for better coverage) and other obstacles (building lots of new masts tends to upset some people).<\/p>\n

Nevertheless, the development of future mobile technologies rarely waits for regulators and governments to decide their fate, which means that countries need to prepare well ahead of time. This is why today’s allocation of \u00a328m – part of a wider \u00a3110m investment programme – to help fuel new 6G research centres is so important. In addition, it will also support the roll-out of 5G<\/a> by making it easier for more firms to enter the market (e.g. supporting vendor neutral OpenRAN networks etc.).<\/p>\n

The \u00a3110m programme also includes \u00a380m for a new UK Telecoms Lab<\/strong>, which is to be built in Solihull (West Midlands). Under a new contract the government has signed with the National Physical Laboratory, the lab will act as a secure research facility for mobile network operators, suppliers and academics to research and test the security, resilience and performance of their 5G<\/a> and, in the future, 6G network technology.<\/p>\n

On top of that, a new R&D partnership with the Republic of Korea (South Korea) has also kicked off, which aims to accelerate the deployment of OpenRAN and associated technologies. The joint project, which will receive more than \u00a33m (including \u00a31.2 million from the UK Government), will focus on the power efficiency of emerging technical equipment – one of the obstacles slowing the deployment of such technologies.<\/p>\n

At this point it’s worth remembering that the government and UK mobile operators hold a joint ambition for 35% of mobile network traffic to pass through OpenRAN kit by the end of the decade.<\/span><\/p>\n

Michelle Donelan, Digital Secretary, said:<\/strong><\/p>\n

“The technology powering our phone and internet networks is evolving rapidly and with 6G on the horizon we must stay ahead of the curve.<\/p>\n

This government investment will see top UK universities join forces with industry to develop the nuts and bolts underpinning new networks, create skilled jobs testing the security of the latest telecoms tech, and ensure our plan for a more diverse and innovative 5G market is sustained in the future.<\/p>\n

The funding will also turbocharge our work to strengthen telecoms supply chains so we are no longer reliant on a handful of companies to develop and maintain our 5G networks.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

All of this is a necessary part of further developing both 5G and future 6G networks, although it’s worth keeping in mind that the 5G roll-out hasn’t gone as well as operators would have liked, due to many of the aforementioned issues and the Huawei ban. The big risk with 6G is that it might not do enough to overcome the challenges created by 5G and may instead simply move the technological goal posts further out, thus compounding existing challenges.<\/p>\n

Not that this will stop the inevitable hype train that tends to precede the release of any new mobile generation, which in the case of 6G may sound awfully similar to the original promise of 5G. On the other hand, 6G is still a good few years away, so there’s plenty of time for network operators to catch-up and hopefully realise some of the other benefits that 5G can deliver. The government could aid this by setting a more ambitious coverage target.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
