In 2009, HUAWEI invested about $ 600 million to develop the 5G standard. To accelerate development in 2016, another 1.4 billion dollars of investments were attracted. It is noteworthy that the total investment of the Chinese telecommunications company in the development of the new standard is almost $ 2 billion higher than that of other equipment suppliers in the US and Europe.
Today, HUAWEI owns about 20% of patents related to 5G technology in one way or another. Many analysts are confident that the creation of 6G networks for commercial use will begin in 2030. The theoretical maximum throughput of the new standard is ten times greater than 5G and is about 1 Tbps.
