New world record for wireless data is 9000 times faster than 5G

Posted by in categories: innovation, mobile phones

Researchers have set a new world record for wireless data transmission, achieving speeds of 938 gigabits per second – roughly 9,000 times faster than current 5G phone networks in the UK.

The breakthrough offers a glimpse at a new era of communications through next-generation 6G technology, which is expected to be deployed commercially within the next decade.

A team from University College London (UCL) achieved the breakthrough by combining both radio and optical technologies for the first time in order to overcome the bottleneck caused by frequency congestion.
