6G: The Next Horizon
6G will serve as a distributed neural network that provides communication links to fuse the physical and cyber worlds.
By Huawei 6G Research Team
6G is the next-generation advanced mobile communications system, but it will go far beyond communications. 6G will serve as a distributed neural network that provides communication links to fuse the physical, cyber, and biological worlds, truly ushering in an era in which everything will be sensed, connected, and intelligent. This in turn will lay a solid foundation for Intelligence of Everything in the future.

6G: From Connected People and Things to Connected Intelligence
There is a tendency to overestimate what can be done in two years but underestimate what can be done in ten years. For the year 2030 and beyond, many aspects of our daily lives will be augmented by ultra-high speed and ultra-reliable wireless connections, native AI, and advanced sensing technologies. Five major categories of usage scenarios are defined, among which, eMBB+, URLLC+, and mMTC+ are extensions and combinations of the usage scenarios defined in 5G, while sensing and AI are two new usage scenarios that will flourish in the era of 6G.
eMBB+
6G is going to bring together physical and cyber worlds and create paradigm shifting living style in Metaverse. eMBB+ is the continuous evolution of enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB) for human-centric communication use cases. It will enable extremely immersive experience and multi-sensory interactions in XR applications — including augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and mixed reality (MR) — and telepresence. eMBB+ will pose much higher requirements on the peak data rate, user-experienced data rate, low E2E latency, and large system capacity (i.e., high throughput and massive connections). Furthermore, it will enable a range of use cases in entertainment, education, manufacturing, and navigation, transforming the way we live, learn, work, and travel. Both indoor and outdoor cases are needed, where seamless user experience in the target activity areas must be guaranteed along the E2E routes of activities, regardless of the high mobility in extreme cases. The user experienced data rate in remote areas and on planes and ships must be maintained to support ubiquitous high-quality connections.
URLLC+
6G will accelerate full-scale digital transformation of vertical industries. URLLC+ is the continuous evolution of ultra-reliable low-latency communications (URLLC) for critical machine-type communication in Industry 4.0 and beyond. It also applies to new applications enabled by the ubiquitous utilization of robots, UAVs, and new human-machine interfaces (HMIs) in manufacturing, public service, autonomous driving, and household management. To be more closely adapted to all kinds of vertical applications, the requirements on low latency and high reliability may be strict in first-order statistics (e.g., mean number of errors in a period) but controllable in the distribution or higher-order statistics (e.g., distribution of errors in a period). In future automated and flexible manufacturing, precise localization and deterministic communication will be provided to support real-time interaction between collaborative robots. A rethinking of network architecture is also considered necessary to enable massive machine learning and knowledge sharing among robots.
mMTC+
6G will continue the journey started by 5G to connect everything, but it will do so with a broader variety of devices, new HMIs, higher density of connections, and native trustworthiness. mMTC+ is the continuous evolution of massive machine type of communication (mMTC), which is characterized by the massive number of lightly connected devices with sporadic traffic in smart cities, healthcare, buildings, transportation, manufacturing, and agriculture. The required data rate could range from very low to medium, and the packet arrival time interval could range from a day to a few milliseconds. A key requirement is for sensors to have a long lifetime, but this may differ significantly depending on their energy harvesting capabilities. In some cases, zero-power backscattering-based passive IoT devices would also be applied as an option for extremely low-cost connections.
Sensing
6G will integrate sensing with communication in a single system, exploiting radio waves to “see” the physical world and make digital twins in the cyber world. Networked sensing creates a new type of usage scenario beyond communication. It covers a range of use cases such as localization for device-based or even device-free targets, imaging, environment reconstruction and monitoring, and gesture and activity recognition. The sensing usage scenario ...
