6G何时、如何从5G中脱颖而出？里程碑和后续步骤

概述

与数字经济的其他领域不同，欧洲是电信设备市场的世界领先者。欧洲拥有世界一流的公司、创新的研究项目平台和多元化的行业生态系统，在塑造移动通信的未来方面具有决定性的影响力。

随着5G成为主流，6G（第六代移动通信）已经呼之欲出。世界各国纷纷启动研发计划，6G标准化正在国际论坛上讨论。

欧洲必须致力于保持其在移动通信领域的领导地位。在地缘政治紧张局势阻碍经济决策的世界中，欧洲大陆采取使其保持领先地位的战略至关重要。为了实现这一目标，欧洲必须继续关注创新动力。

本报告分析了从5G到6G过渡过程的各个方面，并考虑了欧洲国家如何获得和维护6G的技术主权。

Summary

Unlike other sectors of the digital economy, Europe is one of the world's market leaders in telecommunications equipment. Thanks to world-class companies, innovative research project platforms and diverse vertical industry ecosystems, Europe has a decisive influence on shaping the future of mobile communications.

As 5G becomes mainstream, the sixth generation of mobile communications (6G) is already on the horizon. Research and development programs are being launched worldwide, and the standardization of 6G is being debated in international forums.

Europe must aspire to maintain its leading position in mobile telecommunications. In a world where geopolitical tensions interfere with economic decisions, it is crucial for the continent to adopt a strategy that enables it to maintain a leading position. To achieve this, Europe must continue to focus on the dynamics of innovation.
