After 5G, 6G technology is already discussed and may be closer

The number of Brazilian cities that have started to receive 5G technology in Brazil is growing, something that had only been considered for years. However, even though this Implementation Although it is very recent, discussions about 5G have already begun to give way to the debate about the arrival of 6G in the country.

How does 6G work?

This technology, still unknown by most Brazilians, follows the line of improving the internet network. In this case, the main objective is to make the network faster and, consequently, able to deal with new demands. In other words, it is the expansion of wireless communication between chips for meetings and public services.

Unlike 5G, this version will work with technology aimed at consumers and regular internet use. That's because the 5G structure was completely designed so that large corporations could use it.

In this way, 6G will be more accessible and will have benefits beyond the futuristic that will certainly excite users. Among them are the new tactile applications and even holography!

Without forgetting the speed that will be almost unimaginable, since the 6G has a speed potential that is up to one hundred times greater than the 5G. On the other hand, this novelty implies the use of more resources for the installation of antennas and satellites.

When will 6G arrive in Brazil?

Discussions regarding the challenges of installing and using 6G networks in Brazil, for the time being, are centered on the Brazil 6G Project. This is an initiative by Intel and the National Research and Education Network, in addition to representatives from the Ministries of Economy, Education and Communications.

However, we cannot forget that 5G technology is still recent here in Brazil and is present in a small number of cities. That is why the expectation is that 6G will only reach the final consumer in the next few years. Taking the evolution of internet use up to now as a reference, we know that this can happen even sooner than we imagine.
