The two companies' 30 years of relationship in New Zealand are being commemorated by a collaborative arrangement that will accelerate the potential of Vodafone's enormous 4G/5G and 5G networks. In the future, businesses want to investigate the capabilities of 5G advanced and 6G networks.

6G Market Communication Infrastructure Insights

The 6G Market, in this report, has been segmented on the basis of Communication Infrastructure into Wireless, and Fixed. The 6G system is expected to provide simultaneous wireless connectivity that is 1000 times higher than 5G. The upcoming 5G wireless networks will build a foundation of intelligent networks that provide AI operations. It is estimated that by 2030, the capacity of 5G will reach its limit. Then, only 6G networks will be capable of completely intelligent network adaptation and management in order to provide sophisticated services. A fixed communications network is one that permits the transmission of signals via wireline or wireless facilities between points at fixed locations on a network. Rising use of fixed communication infrastructure in industries WILL help 6G to held the largest share in the market.

6G Market Application Insights

The 6G Market, in this report, has been segmented on the basis of Application into Multisensory XR Applications, Connected Robotics and Autonomous Systems (CRAS), Wireless Brain-Computer Interactions (BCI), Digital Twins, Smart Cities, Internet of Everything (IoE), and Others. XR will produce numerous game-changing applications for 6G throughout the AR/MR/VR spectrum. Due to their inability to achieve very low latencies for data-rate intensive XR applications, upcoming 5G systems will still fall short of providing a fully immersive XR experience that captures all sensory inputs. A fully immersive AR/MR/VR experience necessitates a collaborative design that incorporates not just engineering (wireless, processing, storage) but also perceptual needs derived from human senses, cognition, and physiology. It is clear that these 5G use cases cannot meet the technological criteria of 6G applications. As a result, several related research studied possible 6G utilization by expanding the scope of existing usage situations. Three new scenarios are expected to meet the needs of 6G use cases, covering the overlapping areas of 5G scenarios to form an integral set. To allow high-quality onboard communications and worldwide ubiquitous connections in the 6G era, MBB must be available across the whole Earth's surface, also known as ubiquitous MBB or ultra-mobile broadband.
