Samsung to implement AI in 6G to improve network quality

Samsung published its first white paper on 6G back in 2020, and today, the company has more to say about where it is on the road to the future in communications.

The new white paper stated the company aims to integrate the latest AI technology throughout the telecommunication system and improve network quality for a future-oriented and sustainable user experience.

A white paper generally is an informative document, laying out future plans in simple terms, and in this case, Samsung explained how 6G will enhance and accelerate connectivity. There will be five services expected to profit from the sixth-gen wireless networks:

• Immersive XR for entertainment, healthcare and science;
• Digital Twin for virtual replicas of physical entities (imagine holograms) for security reasons;
• Massive Communication that allows constant connectivity between multiple sensors, machines, and terminals;
• Ubiquitous Connectivity, expanding service areas and interoperating between terrestrial and non-terrestrial (satellite) networks;
• Fixed Wireless Access (FWA), which is just like wired connectivity but without the wire.

This will all be enhanced by AI technologies, which is said to not only make the user experience future-proof but will also help reduce costs, enhance energy efficiency and expand service coverage.

This all sounds great on paper, but the question of when it would happen remains. Samsung revealed it expects the 6G technology standards to be finalized in 2030, with momentum in research and development to intensify soon.
