6G in India: How Sensor-Driven Shells Will Transform Connectivity in Urban and Rural Areas
6G in India: How Sensor-Driven Shells Will Transform Connectivity in Urban and Rural Areas
At IIT-BHU, Rajesh Kumar Pathak, the Director General of 6G in India, mentioned that large towers won’t be constructed in villages or cities for 6G. Instead, shells will be placed on existing electricity poles, extending from urban areas to rural ones.
These shells will function entirely based on sensors and will weigh about 8 kilograms. Pathak also indicated that India aims to launch 6G by 2030, positioning the country among the leaders in the global rollout of this technology.
Experts in information technology are actively discussing the upcoming 6G technology. They assure that the signals from this network will not pose any health risks. Rajesh Kumar Pathak, the Director General, highlighted that satellite networks will also play a role in the 6G framework.
Thanks to advancements in artificial intelligence, communication among individuals will become more efficient. The 6G network aims to enhance mobile phone battery life by being entirely sensor-driven; devices will only be active when needed and will enter sleep mode when not in use.
While some people worry that 5G phones will become obsolete with the introduction of 6G, reports indicate that 5G devices will still work and will receive updates to remain functional even after 6G is launched.
