TPR Phase 2025

Technical performance requirements (TPR) phase beginning year 2024.

• Expansion of IoTs: It is expected that the number of IoT devices in the world will grow up to 24 billion by 2030. 
• Massive availability of small data: Due to the anticipated popularity of 6G-based IoT devices and new 6G-IoT services, 6G networks will trend to generate an increasingly high volume of data. Most of such data will be small, dynamic, and heterogeneous in nature.
• Availability of self-sustained networks: 6Gmobile systems need to be energy self-sustainable, both at the infrastructure side and at the device side, to provide uninterrupted connectivity in every corner of the world. The development of energy harvesting capabilities will extend the life cycle of both network  infrastructure devices and end devices such as IoE devices.
• Convergence of communication, sensing, control, localization, and computing: Development of sensor technologies and direct integration of them with mobile networks accompanied by low-energy communication capabilities will lead to advanced 6G networks. Such a network will be able to provide sensing and localization services in addition to the exciting communication and computing features.
• Zero energy IoT: Generally, IoT devices will consume significantly more energy for communication than sensing and processing. The development of ultra-low-power communication mechanisms and efficient energy harvesting mechanisms will lead to self-energy sustainable or zero energy IoT devices.
• More bits, spectrum, and reliability: The advancement of wireless communication technologies, including coding schemes and antenna technologies, will allow to utilize new spectrum aswell as reliably sendmore information bits over existing wireless channels.
• Gadget-free communication: The integration of an increasing number of smart and intelligent devices and digital interfaces in the environment will lead to a change from gadget-centric to user-centric or gadget-free communication model. The hyperconnected digital surroundings will form an “omnipotential” atmosphere around the user, providing all the information, tools, and servicesthat a user needs in his or her everyday life.
• Increasing elderly population: Due to factors such as advanced healthcare facilities and the development of new medicines, the world’s older population continues to grow at an unprecedented rate. According to the “An AgingWorld: 2015” report, nearly 17% (1.6 billion) of the world’s population will be aged 65 and over by 2050.
• Emergence of new technologies: By 2030, the world will experience new technological advancements such as stand-alone cars, AI-powered automated devices, smart clothes, printed bodies in 3D, humanoid robots, smart grid 2.0, industry 5.0, and space travel. 6G will be the main underline communication infrastructure to realize these technologies.

• Further enhanced Mobile Broadband (FeMBB): The mobile broadband speed has to be further improved beyond the limits of 5G and provide the peak data rate at Terabits per second (Tbps) level. Moreover, the user-experienced data rate should also be improved up to Gigabits per second (Gbps) level.
• Ultra-massive Machine-Type Communication (umMTC): Connection density will further increase in 6G due to the popularity of IoT devices and the novel concept of IoE. These devices communicate with each other and offer collaborative services in an autonomous manner.
• Enhanced Ultra-Reliable, Low-Latency Communication (ERLLC/eURLLC): The E2E latency in 6G should be further reduced up to μs level to enable new high-end real-time 6G applications.
• Extremely Low-Power Communications (ELPC): The network energy efficiency of 6G will be improved by 10× than 5G and 100× than 4G. It will enable extremely low-power communication channels for resource constrained IoT devices.
• Long-Distance High-Mobility Communications (LDHMC): With the support of fully integrated satellite technologies, 6Gwill provide communication for extreme places such as space and the deep sea. Moreover, AI-based automated mobility management systems and proactive migration systems will be able to support seamless mobility at speed beyond 1000 kmph.
• High-Spectrum Efficiency: The spectrum efficiency will be further improved in 6G up to 5 times as in 4G and nearly two times as in 5G networks.
• High-Area Traffic Capacity: The exponential growth of IoT will demand the improvement of the area traffic capacity by 100 times than 5G networks. It will lead up to 1 Gbps traffic per square meter in 6G networks.
• Massive Low-LatencyMachine Type (mLLMT): In 6G,URLLC andmMTC services should be linked, and novel unified solutions are needed to meet the challenge of offering efficient and fast massive connectivity.
• Mobile broad bandwidth and low-latency (MBBLL), massive broad bandwidth machine type (mBBMT),massive, low-latency machine type mLLMT)
