The 3GPP organizational partners ARIB, ATIS, CCSA, ETSI, TSDSI, TTA and TTC said the body would begin planning for 6G specifications.
In a statement, the standards body noted that work is underway for Release-18 and it will soon begin development of Release-19 specifications, which are related to 5G-Advanced.
