As FCC allocating higher frequency bands for 5G, it is expected that 6G will be sub Terahertz frequency bands starting at 125GHz.
At these frequencies the wavelength is so small and Ohmic losses are so high per unit length that it makes sense to integrate Antenna in Package, AiP, or even Antenna integrated with Front End Module silicon.
Therefore, 6G Technology will be about radio front end which is integrated within semiconductor technology. Semiconductor technology and its capabilities will be centered and complete communication systems will be in order of 2”x2” at the most if not smaller.
This Forum will be posting related contents and welcome technologist, engineers, scientists for introducing relating materials.

Emerging 6G Technologies
There are many articles about what 6G brings and enable for Terrestrial communications.
Here are some of obvious changes which you should expect.
- mmW frequencies reduce the component size
- hence, mmW frequencies enable more integrations
- off chip passive components can be integrated onto the chip or at least onto the package
- Passive components, e.g., Antenna, Filter, Transmission Line, Stub, Coupler, etc.
- Active components would be much more sophisticated
- Active components, e.g., ADC and DAC
- ADC and DAC would be broadband using interleaving technology
- Broadband ADC and DAC would enable SDR architecture
Businesses which plan according with vision for the future market, end up winning new market.

Cellular Architecture will be Replaced with Cell Free Architecture in 6G
Wireless Cellular Network has expanded over the past two decades exponentially and enabled global populations in all contents with access to online access to internet and more importantly to each other.
The impact is significant by any measured metrics from technical to social and economic evolution.
You could post a picture online for your loved ones across the glob and they can enjoy that picture in only seconds from the moment you took that picture.
You even can share movie of your birthday, wedding, and anything that is important to you to virtually share that moment with the same wireless cellular network.
All that technical infrastructure built over the past two decades are about to go through another major technical wireless evolution.
To better understand the need for another major shift in the wireless infrastructure, we need to understand the existing wireless cellular network based on providing some minimum quality of service and throughput for anyone in the network.
Although that was significant major improvement compared to legacy wired infrastructure, that would not be competitive for future markets.
6G market would require much better datarate and quality of service to address AI, XR, and interpersonal connectivity.
