To meet the escalating data demands of mobile devices and to deal with the deluge of data, as well as the high-rate connectivity required by bandwidth-thirsty applications (e.g., space-air-ground-integrated-networks (SAGINs), augmented reality (AR), and virtual reality (VR), etc.), 6G networks are expected to provide substantial breakthroughs beyond the previous five generations. Computer scienceHardware and architectureElectrical engineeringElectronic engineeringTelecommunicationsOther1558-156X 1009838400003Q140604
