Which New Spectrum For 6G? A Practical Review

Currently, no spectrum is assigned to 6G. However, researchers and industry experts worldwide are convinced that additional frequency layers for the next generation of wireless communication will be essential.

Sub-terahertz frequencies from 100 to 300 GHz are of interest to enhance performance as wider signal bandwidths beyond 10 GHz are available, enabling new applications such as short-range sensing of the environment. This video explains the background of candidate frequency bands in the D-Band (110 to 170 GHz) and G-Band (140 to 220 GHz).
