From 5G to 6G: the unstoppable progress of generations

,
Through a series of articles, this I'MTech collection offers various insights to better understand the technical challenges, as well as the issues of optimization and energy efficiency, that accompany the transition from 5G to 6G. Between the explosion of the IoT, the emergence of the metaverse, and the imperative of energy efficiency, we take a look at the future of telecommunications.

5G & 6G: the antennas that shape networks

,
In a context of constantly growing needs for data transmission, 5G and 6G networks must comply with increasingly strict technical obligations in terms of flexibility, miniaturization, and energy optimization. Solutions explored by researchers include optimal management of radiation patterns and the development of concrete applications for millimeter wave frequencies. Two projects, YACARI and PIIEC ME/CT, are tackling the technical obstacles to these approaches by combining different antenna technologies.
