Exclusive: End of Cell Tower Era – SIX-G (Smart Cap) to enter Indian Telecom Market, Invites Users to Test

So far, we only knew about the internet services such as 2G, 3G, 4G and the upcoming 5G, which is an evolving standard. Adding to this list, India has discovered another service, known as SIX-G. As per the official statement by ICC (Indian Cellular Commission) an exclusive body setup to promote innovation, SIX-G will be available for all telecom subscribers starting today.

3G-4G

The SIX-G has been tested thoroughly and is compliant with ICC standards. Traditionally, communication standards of the world are standardised as per the cellular communications standards drafted by an organisation known as 3GPP (3rd Generation Partnership Projects). However, SIX-G has been standardised by our very own ICC, which is an Indian body and works according to domestic norms.

Surprised? We too were as clueless and curious about the whole thing as you are, that is why, to dig out more about it, our reporters approached the ICC. In an exclusive interview, ICC Chairperson has let out some details about Six-G.

TT: How did you start on this journey of SIX-G? Where did it all start?

ICC: It all started one fine day, when Mukesh Jee was having tea with Sunil Jee and discussing the “G’s” of the world. They discussed 2G and 3G in detail and fought over 4G. They had a very limited knowledge about 5G. This made them  think and soon one thing led to another and a new “G” was formed, which later was named as SIX-G.

TT: Why did you name it SIX-G while all the other Gs are just numbers like 2,3,4,5?

ICC: we wanted to make it unique and distinct since it is the highest form of technology and it is from India, hence we named it SIX-G
