LG successfully demos 6G data transmission using terahertz spectrum

LG Electronics Inc. on Thursday said it has successfully demonstrated 6G data transmission using the terahertz spectrum as the South Korean tech giant tries to move ahead in the next-generation communication technology.

LG succeeded in sending 6G terahertz wireless communication signals 100 meters in an outdoor environment in collaboration with Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft, Europe's leading application-oriented research organization, in Berlin last week.

LG said it developed a new power amplifier with Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft in order to deliver stable communication signals at the 6G terahertz spectrum.

LG said its new amplifier can deliver a maximum output signal of 15 decibel-milliwatts for stable communication in the 155-175 gigahertz band.

LG added it also developed adaptive beamforming and high-gain antenna switching technologies for the 6G terahertz wireless communication demonstration.

LG expects 6G communication to be commercialized in 2029, with talks for standardization beginning in 2025.
