Researchers offer future 6G network concept:
With commercial 5G rapidly deploying, researchers have begun to look at 6G. Its key technologies for mobile communication networks are expected to become available as early as 2023, with 6G networks emerging in 2030, according to Saad et al. Compared to 5G, the 6G network will increase data rates by over 100 times, to one terabyte per second or more, enabling the inclusion of edge intelligent devices and computing. To move large amounts of data to where and when it is needed, 6G networks will need to customize services to meet demands, transmit valued data, and interact with users.
To meet these requirements, the paper offers a "mailbox theory" that envisions a 6G network characterized as a:
- Distributed Intelligent Network [...]
- Proactive Interactive Network [...]
- Cognitive Information Transmission [...]

Meh. Wake me up when ISPs start offering residential connectivity that warrants higher frequency and more bandwidth and more antennas than ac. Hell, 2.4Ghz 802.11n is good enough in most cases.

Before now, the "next generation" is higher and higher frequencies, since with digital the higher the frequency, the higher the bandwidth. But they're pretty much tapped out; they changed OTA TV frequencies (TV no longer needs the analog bandwidth) and now the weather forecasters and airports are bitching about the noise.
What's next? How do they do 6G?
