SIXTH GENERATION (6G) WIRELESS COMMUNICATION: A COMPREHENSIVE REVIEW

Abstract

The standardisation activates of communications of the fifth (5) generation are clearly over and worldwide rollout has begun. Industrial as well as the academic synergies have begun to conceptualise the next generation of wireless communication systems (such as, sixth generation, (6G)) to preserve the competitive advantage of wireless networks, aimed at laying the groundwork for stratifying the communication needs of the 2030s. This review article highlights the most promising lines of research from the latest literature on common directions for the 6G project in support of this vision. Its core contribution includes exploring 6G communications' crucial problems and key potential features, including: vision and key features; (ii) threats and possible solutions; and lastly (iii) research activities. In relation to the motivation of their different sub-domains to achieve a specific, concrete, and succinct conclusion, these contentious research topics were thoroughly explored. This review article would also make a huge contribution to expand new horizons for future research directions.
