Technology Sep 16, 2025

IIT Hyderabad is making big moves in 6G tech, aiming for readiness by the expected 2030 global rollout.
Their vision? Super-fast, AI-powered connectivity everywhere—cities, villages, even in the sky.
Professor Kiran Kuchi says this leap could help India step up as a major player in global telecom.

Prototypes and India's tech leadership

The team has already built working 6G prototypes using advanced antennas and satellite-ready systems, plus their own system-on-chip for seamless connections.
These breakthroughs aim to contribute to worldwide standards expected by 2029 and support India's goal of becoming a tech leader—not just a consumer—by its centenary year in 2047.
