Detailed explanation-1: -6G (sixth-generation wireless) is the successor to 5G cellular technology. 6G networks will be able to use higher frequencies than 5G networks and provide substantially higher capacity and much lower latency. One of the goals of the 6G internet is to support one microsecond latency communications.

Detailed explanation-2: -5G is the next generation of wireless cellular technology. It will provide speeds faster than any previous generation - up to 3000 Mbps (3 Gbps) in the real world, depending on the conditions and the tech being used - competing even with those delivered via fiber-optic cables.

Detailed explanation-3: -5G wireless technology is meant to deliver higher multi-Gbps peak data speeds, ultra low latency, more reliability, massive network capacity, increased availability, and a more uniform user experience to more users. Higher performance and improved efficiency empower new user experiences and connects new industries.

Detailed explanation-4: -5G services are also expected to play a major role to achieve the economic goal of making India a $5-trillion economy by 2024-25. According to experts, 5G will have a cumulative economic impact of $1 trillion by 2035 and can deliver an additional GDP of $150 billion for the country, between 2025-40.
