Samsung Electronics is taking the lead in standardization of sixth-generation (6G) network technology, as the company proposed to start a global study on securing frequencies for the future network technology, which is expected to be commercialized as early as 2028, the company said Sunday.

With the study on the network technology, the Korean tech giant aims to take the lead in the global standardization and establishment of the 6G network.

Samsung released the white paper, "6G Spectrum: Expanding the Frontier," that lays out its vision to secure global frequency bands for 6G.

"We have started on our journey long ago to understand, develop and standardize the 6G communications technology," Choi Sung-hyun, executive vice president and head of the Advanced Communications Research Center at Samsung Research, a R&D hub of Samsung Electronics, said.

"We are committed to taking the lead and sharing our findings to spread our vision to bring the next hyper-connected experience to every corner of life," Choi added.

In the white paper, Samsung suggested that discussions on 6G frequencies and related research should be conducted at a global level from now on to commercialize 6G. Given that next-generation technologies ― such as holograms and extended reality (XR) technologies, which require faster speeds with large data capacities ― are expected hit the market, Samsung sees it is important preemptively to prepare for it.

The company suggested that 6G technology would require a transmission spectrum with ultra-wideband contiguous bandwidth, ranging from hundreds of megahertz to gigahertz to enable these new services.

Samsung also highlighted the importance of securing new bands for commercial deployments of 6G, because 5G network will still be active at the time when 6G deployment starts.

The white paper showed Samsung's recent findings, which can be candidate technologies for 6G networks, such as sub-terahertz, which is expected to support data rates of up to 1 terabit per second, 50 times faster than the 20-gigabit per second speed of 5G networks.
