China Mobile's 6G-AI prototype has shattered records with its 1Tbps transmission speed and 0.1ms latency, demonstrated at the 2025 Global 6G Summit in Beijing. This revolutionary system combines terahertz wave technology (100GHz-3THz range) with AI-native network architecture, enabling real-time holographic communication and industrial automation at unprecedented scales. Field tests across 12 Chinese cities show consistent 16.5Gbps real-world throughput - 500x faster than current 5G networks - while maintaining 99.9999% reliability in mission-critical applications.
Core Technological Breakthroughs
