 Abstract

6G mobile technology represents the cutting-edge frontier in wireless communication, poised to

transcend the capabilities of it’s predecessors. Envisioned as a transformative leap beyond 5G,6G aims
to provide mind-blogging data speeds, almost instantaneous response times, and the capacity to connect
an unprecedented number of devices simultaneously. Anticipated to operate in the terahertz frequency
range,6G holds the potential to enable revolutionary applications such as real-time holographic
communication, seamless integration of AI-driven services, and the realization of fully autonomous
systems. As researchers and engineers work to unravel its complexities,6G emerges as the catalyst for a
new era of connectivity that could redefine industries and reshape the way we interact with technology
and each other.
