DOCOMO, NTT, NEC and Fujitsu Develop Top-level Sub-terahertz 6G Device Capable of Ultra-high-speed 100 Gbps Transmission
The four companies have been jointly conducting R&D on sub-terahertz devices since 2021 in anticipation of the coming 6G era.
- The four companies have been jointly conducting R&D on sub-terahertz devices since 2021 in anticipation of the coming 6G era.
- To date, tests of a jointly developed wireless device have achieved ultra-high-speed 100 Gbps transmissions in the 100 GHz and 300 GHz bands at distances of up to 100 meters.
- (2) By comparison, 100 Gbps is approximately 20 times faster than the maximum 4.9 Gbps (3) data rate of current 5G networks.
- After analyzing the wireless system configuration and performance required for 100 GHz telecommunications applications, DOCOMO developed wireless transmission equipment capable of transmitting data rates equivalent to 100 Gbps at a distance of 100 meters.
