– 6G (6G) R&D policy and industry demand reflected, International Telecommunication Union Future Technology Trend (trend) report development completed –

□ The Ministry of Science and ICT at the 2022st International Telecommunication Union Mobile Telecommunications Working Group (ITU-R WP6D) Meeting* held in Geneva, Switzerland from June 13. (Mon) to June 6 (Fri), 24. It announced that it has completed the development of a 41th generation (5G) future technology trend report** on the 6th generation (6G) vision and future technology research.
* The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) presents the 6th generation (6G) vision (June 6), which corresponds to the standardization blueprint containing the 6th generation (23.6G) target service, key performance indicators and standardization schedule, Accordingly, the development of the 6th generation (6G) international standard (June 30.6) is promoted.
** Future technology trends of terrestrial IMT systems towards 2030 and beyond

□ Korea is a co-chair of a working group researching 6G (6G) future technology trends (Professor Oh Seong-Jun, Korea University).

○ Through this report, innovative future technology trends are presented to reflect advances in artificial intelligence technology, improvement of system reliability and sustainability, reinforcement of security, and the emergence of various convergence services.

□ In particular, while various 6th generation (6G) service scenarios such as artificial intelligence-based services and sensing-communication cooperation-based services are being discussed,

○ Evolved wireless access technologies (artificial intelligence convergence communication, sensing convergence communication, full-duplex communication, etc.) and wireless network technologies (digital twin support, coverage expansion, communication-computing convergence, etc.) included in the report will be ) is expected to be reflected in the 6th generation (6G) vision that defines target services and required performance.

□ Also, during the meeting, Korea held a workshop to promote the development of the 6th generation (6G) vision as the chair country of the 6th generation (6G) vision group to introduce the progress of the 6th generation (6G) vision work of the International Telecommunication Union, The 193G (6G) vision development and research directions were presented to member countries of the International Telecommunication Union (6 countries) and external organizations, and international cooperation was encouraged.

□ MSIT Information Security Network Policy Director Kim Jeong-sam said, “Korea is taking the lead in the discussion of future technologies and 6G visions of the International Telecommunication Union to secure global leadership in the 6th generation (6G).”

○ As the 6th generation (6G) vision provides guidance on global 6th generation (6G) R&D, frequency acquisition, standardization, and commercialization, “the 6th generation (6G) vision leadership is We will spare no effort to support international standardization so that it can lead to the preoccupation of generation (6G) standards.”
