支持性的5G基础设施政策对通用6G至关重要：使用遥感开源技术经济模拟模型进行评估
Supportive 5G Infrastructure Policies are Essential for Universal 6G: Assessment using an Open-source Techno-economic Simulation Model utilizing Remote Sensing
摘要：
第六代蜂窝技术（6G）的工作现已开始，具有成本效益的全球宽带覆盖已成为一个关键支柱。事实上，我们距离提供普遍和负担得起的宽带连接还很远，尽管这是可持续发展目标（具体目标9.c）的一个关键部分。目前，移动网络运营商和政府仍然缺乏对可用蜂窝技术（4G和5G）实现这一目标的战略的独立分析。因此，本文进行了定量评估，展示了当前的5G政策如何影响通用宽带，并就现在做出的决策如何影响未来向6G的演进得出结论。使用基于开源技术经济代码库的方法，将遥感与最低成本网络算法相结合，为不同的4G和5G通用宽带策略提供性能分析。作为一个例子，评估方法适用于印度，世界第二大移动市场和频谱价格非常高的国家。结果表明，技术决策之间的权衡。这包括展示当前基础设施政策的重要性，特别是考虑到光纤回程对于提供6G服务质量至关重要。我们发现，通过消除频谱许可成本，使用光纤回程可以实现100%的5G人口覆盖。因此，支持性的基础设施政策对于为向未来蜂窝一代（如6G）的演进提供卓越的基础至关重要。
英文摘要：
Work has now begun on the sixth generation of cellular technologies (`6G`) and cost-efficient global broadband coverage is already becoming a key pillar. Indeed, we are still far from providing universal and affordable broadband connectivity, despite this being a key part of the Sustainable Development Goals (Target 9.c). Currently, both Mobile Network Operators and governments still lack independent analysis of the strategies that can help achieve this target with the cellular technologies available (4G and 5G). Therefore, this paper undertakes quantitative assessment demonstrating how current 5G policies affect universal broadband, as well as drawing conclusions over how decisions made now affect future evolution to 6G. Using a method based on an open-source techno-economic codebase, combining remote sensing with least-cost network algorithms, performance analytics are provided for different 4G and 5G universal broadband strategies. As an example, the assessment approach is applied to India, the world`s second-largest mobile market and a country with very high spectrum prices. The results demonstrate the trade-offs between technological decisions. This includes demonstrating how important current infrastructure policy is, particularly given fiber backhaul will be essential for delivering 6G quality of service. We find that by eliminating the spectrum licensing costs, 100% 5G population coverage can viably be achieved using fiber backhaul. Therefore, supportive infrastructure policies are essential in providing a superior foundation for evolution to future cellular generation, such as 6G.
