High-Frequency and Low-Cost: The Future of 6G Filters on Silicon

The race toward 6G wireless connectivity is intensifying, driving demand for faster, smaller, and more efficient components. A research team has now unveiled a breakthrough: a new class of radio frequency (RF) filters based on shear vertical surface acoustic waves (SV-SAW) fabricated on a cost-effective silicon-based platform. These filters operate in the centimeter-wave (cmWave) spectrum above 6 GHz--an essential frequency range for 6G--and del…

NGMN calls for harmonized 6G – without total hardware refresh

The transition to future 6G technology should be evolutionary and should not force a complete hardware refresh, says NGMN In sum – what to know: Evolution, not revolution – NGMN emphasizes that 6G should evolve from 5G, with most upgrades happening via software to avoid costly hardware overhauls. Unified global standards – The alliance calls […]
