ZTE has announced that it launched 6G key technology research in pursuit of monster network speeds of 1 million Gigabits. The astounding potential of such monster speeds is quite remarkable, but we could be several away from such technology. ZTE says that it is committed to technological innovation and R&D investment in order to maintain its market advantage in network improvement.

6G

ZTE spent up to 16 billion yuan on research in 2022, which is about 17% of its operating income within the period. It says 6G is the next big thing in mobile communication but is in its early stage of development. ZTE will carry key defining research in 6G technologies that could set the template for future development in the area. The company will draw from its rich resource of R&D staff to deliver the innovation needed to drive 6G evolution. The 6G research has an extensive technical layout and will be in-depth. ZTE says it will actively explore industry alliances, open-source communities, and other creative engagements to drive the research.

ZTE sees an active R&D strategy as an important fulcrum in enterprise development. It has active R&D units at different places around the world with some core competencies. Its core areas include 5G wireless network, bearer, access, chips, and more. It has consistently devoted up to 10% of its operating income annually to this cause. It says it will continue to put in the needed effort to fast-track key developments in 6G technology. It is noted that the 6G network is projected to come on stream by 2030.
