China's 6G patent applications lead the world, leading a new track for future communications
Ever heard of 5G? That is the hottest communication technology in recent years, making our mobile phone network speed "soaring". But did you know that when 5G technology is not yet fully popularized, scientists have begun to lay out the 6G era!
Recently, the latest data on the number of 6G patent applications was released, and one of the staggering figures has caught the attention of the global tech community - China accounts for 40.3% of the world's 6G patent applications, far ahead of the United States and other countries.
This figure is like a slap in the face, waking up those who have doubts about China's scientific and technological strength. Yes, in the field of 5G, Chinese companies once lagged behind foreign rivals. But while everyone is still complaining about the lack of "sense of gain" in the 5G network experience, Chinese technology workers have silently paved the way for 6G.
This ranking of 6G patent applications fully demonstrates China's hard power in the field of future communication technology. Not only that, but it is more like a beautiful business card of China's scientific and technological strength, showing the world that China is rising and overtaking on this track!
Huawei ZTE leads 6G R&D, and China's scientific and technological strength has been internationally recognized
This ranking of 6G patent applications reflects China's hard power in the field of future communication technology. Behind this ranking, it is inseparable from the unremitting efforts and innovative breakthroughs of Chinese technology companies.
The well-deserved leaders are Huawei and ZTE, two Chinese communications giants. Data shows that Huawei and ZTE account for nearly half of the global 6G patent applications. They are the "biggest contributors" to China's 6G patent applications.
As leaders in the 5G era, Huawei and ZTE have made great efforts in 6G research and development. For example, Huawei has invested a lot of money to set up a 6G pre-research project team to start researching 6G core technologies. ZTE set up a 6G laboratory last year to lay out the research and development of 6G key technologies.
The 6G R&D focus of these two companies is mainly focused on cutting-edge technologies such as artificial intelligence, large-scale antenna arrays, and reconfigurable smart surfaces. These breakthroughs will bring higher transmission rates, lower latency, and greater connection density to 6G networks.
In addition to Huawei and ZTE, there are many other enterprises and scientific research institutions in China that have also made great achievements in 6G research and development. For example, UNISOC has announced 6G chip solutions, and operators such as China Mobile and China Telecom are also actively deploying 6G trial networks.
How will 6G change? China is leading the communications revolution
China's leading position in the number of 6G patent applications not only demonstrates the improvement of China's scientific and technological strength, but also indicates that the arrival of the 6G era will bring great changes to the world.
What kind of changes will 6G bring to us? According to industry predictions, 6G networks will be faster than 5G networks by more than 10 times, the latency will be reduced to microseconds, and the connection density will be doubled. With these performance leaps, 6G will be able to support intelligent applications at scale.
For example, in the industrial field, 6G will bring the "intelligence" of factories to a new level. In the future smart factory, robots and sensors will be interconnected through 6G networks to achieve automated operations and refined management.
In terms of transportation, 6G will make it possible to apply driverless cars. Relying on the high speed and low latency characteristics of the 6G network, unmanned vehicles can share road condition information in real time and communicate with roadside facilities in real time, thereby greatly improving driving safety.
6G will also enable emerging applications such as augmented reality/virtual reality to be widely used in various industries. Through the 6G network, people can immerse themselves in the virtual world anytime and anywhere, and experience the real feeling of being there.
