Huawei starts research on 6G internet

5G has been a source of unrest for Huawei. The US government, worried that Huawei could build security flaw "backdoors" into 5G and other communications infrastructure, has pressured governments around the world to avoid using the Chinese giant′s equipment. With 5G still a year or two away from the mainstream, Huawei has now started looking to the next generation of mobile internet.

The Chinese company is researching 6G at its R&D center in Ottawa, Canada, reports The Logic. Obviously, this is a forward-looking move on the company′s part. It doesn′t expect 6G to become a reality in any meaningful sense until around 2030.
