NEW DELHI: The Centre will play a crucial role in shaping standards and infrastructure for 6G networks worldwide, Dr Neeraj Mittal, Secretary (Telecom), said.
Inaugurating a centre of excellence on 6G at IITM Research Park, Chennai, Mittal said this initiative is aligned with the ‘Bharat 6G Vision’ document released by Prime Minister Narendra Modi in March last year.
PM Modi has envisaged India to be a front-line contributor in the design, development and deployment of 6G technology by 2030. Mittal emphasised that the initiative aims to create a cohesive and coordinated effort in advancing 6G technology, ensuring that all projects benefit from collective expertise and resources.
The Centre of Excellence is a sub-centre of Telecom Centres of Excellence (TCoE)-India which will spearhead the development and deployment of 6G technology, promising unprecedented speeds, ultra-low latency, and enhanced connectivity. The centre will serve as a hub for innovation, bringing together academic and industry experts to collaborate on cutting-edge projects.
