概要

必要とされるどんな場所でも優れた性能を発揮できる通信であることが、6G通信の成功に不可欠です。

自家発電でほぼどこでも動作

基地局、顧客構内設備、そして新たに不可欠となったRISなどの、微弱な高周波を目的地まで届けるための工事は不要となり、有線接続や充電器を必要とするクライアントデバイスもなくなるでしょう。一方、太陽光だけで成層圏を何年も飛行するソーラードローン「空の塔」のような、自己発電型のインフラが登場するでしょう。効率40%の太陽光発電とその他のハーベスティング技術で自己発電する6Gクライアントデバイスを考えてみましょう。必要なときに信号で駆動する電池不要のクライアントデバイスを追加し、据付けしたあとは忘れてしまえる喜びを味わいましょう。

当レポートでは、6G通信の自家発電インフラおよびクライアントZED (ゼロエネルギーデバイス) の市場を調査し、6G ZEDインフラとクライアントデバイスの実現技術の概要、新しい機会、技術ロードマップ、市場規模の推移・予測、主要企業の取り組みなどをまとめています。

当レポートでは、106社以上を取り上げ、約1,000種の最新の研究論文や企業の取り組みを抽出し、107のインフォグラム、表、グラフで、10種のSWOT評価、14種の予測ライン (2025-2045年) をまとめています。

Essential to success of 6G Communications will be it working with superior performance almost anywhere you need it. The new 397-page, commercially-oriented report, "6G Communications: Self-powered Infrastructure and Zero Energy Client Devices ZED: Markets 2025-2045" reveals huge opportunities in a relatively neglected yet essential key enabling technology.

Self-powered, working almost everywhere

Gone will be earthworks to base stations, customer premises equipment and those newly-essential reconfigurable intelligent surfaces RIS everywhere to get the feeble higher frequency emissions to destination. Gone will be client devices hard-wired or in need of chargers. Welcome self-powered infrastructure such as the solar drone "tower in the sky" aloft for years in the stratosphere on sunshine alone. Think self-powered 6G client devices with 40% efficient photovoltaics and other harvesting. Add battery-free client devices powered by signal when needed and delights of fit-and-forget.

Uniquely up-to-date and insightful

This PhD level analysis has 7 Chapters, 10 SWOT appraisals, 14 Forecast lines 2025-2045, over 106 companies mentioned, 107 infograms, tables, graphs distilling about 1000 latest research papers and company initiatives.

It assists those entering the value chain of 6G Zero Energy Devices ZED. Useful to investors, materials and device suppliers and system integrators seeking to pull ahead, it provides insightful PhD level analysis of the latest research, heavily biassed towards 2024 announcements. It is constantly updated so you only get the latest. Absorb new industrial initiatives, research advances and expert opinions.

The forecasts presume that 6G will succeed but the analysis is balanced, detailing pros and cons. Topics covered extend well beyond electronic and electrical equipment and devices that make all their electricity with on-board ambient energy harvesting, increasingly multi-mode. Understand simultaneous wireless information and power transfer SWIPT enabling devices to power up when needed from the signal beam and even research on harvesting electricity from the signal. See electronic devices that need no power such as 6G passive metamaterial reflect-array surfaces you can supply.

The report analyses enabling technologies arriving such as ultra-low power electronics and metasurfaces needing only a whisper of electricity, transparent and battery-free technology all leading to the new world of very-long-life, fit-and-forget 6G devices and infrastructure often vanishing into the fabric of society.

Questions answered include:

  • How can I create a $1 billion 6G ZED business?
  • Potential competitors, partners or acquisitions?
  • Market and technology roadmap for 2025-2045?
  • Technology readiness and potential improvement?
  • Appraisal of needs and appropriate technology options?
  • Market drivers and forecasts of background parameters?
  • Market forecasts by technology and application 2025-2044?
  • Deep analysis of research pipeline including 2024 with implications?
  • Explanation of trend to "massless energy", and other structural electronics?
  • Battery-free, ultra-low power electronics, non-toxic, non-flammable options emerging?

The Executive Summary and Conclusions (41 slides) compresses it all into visuals, roadmaps and forecasts. The Introduction (54 slides) gives 6G justification, basics, disruptive aspects, challenges and arguments against. However, mostly it outlines ZED needs and opportunities in 6G Phase 1 and 2, examples including wireless powered IoE for 6G, zero-energy device networks with wireless-powered RIS and ZED Machine Type Communications MTC. Learn zero-energy air interface for advanced 5G and for 6G and the first real-time backscatter communication demonstrated for 6G. See further reading from 2024 and 2023 research.

Chapter 3. "6G ZED infrastructure and client device enabling technology: metamaterials, IRS, RIS, structural electronics" uses 34 pages including six SWOT appraisals to cover these basics. They include passive metamaterial reflect-arrays that need no power and semi-passive RIS needing almost no power - easily made ZED.

One route to energy independence is greatly advancing the backscatter principle of the world's most numerous electronic devices - battery-free RFID and anti-theft tags. Chapter 4. "6G ZED enabling technology: Simultaneous wireless and information transfer SWIPT, Ambient backscatter communications technology AmBC, crowd-detectable zero energy devices CD-ZED" (24 pages) addresses this and allied matters.

The largest chapter concerns the most prevalent ZED technology likely for 6G infrastructure and client devices which is reinvented on-board energy harvesting, far more powerful than we know today. The 142-page Chapter 5. "6G ZED enabling technology: energy harvesting for 6G infrastructure and client devices" makes sense of the flood of research advances particularly in 2024 and latest trials such as HAPS drones aloft on thin-film triple junction photovoltaics alone. Expect up to four energy harvesting technologies in a given device, chosen from 13 candidate harvesting families appraised, together very lightweight, low volume, low cost and producing ten to one hundred times the power. Appropriately, 49 pages are on next photovoltaics - research, demonstrations, company trends. With one micron-thick and even spray-on photovoltaics in prospect, the doubling of efficiency to around 40% will be dwarfed by PV area increasing at least ten times as it appears on all surface shapes and locations. There is good coverage of solar drones including two very significant demonstrations of low-level ones in 2024. Once again, there are dense infograms and extensive further reading, particularly from 2024.

Chapter 6 (28 pages) covers, "Ultra-low power electronics and electrics to make 6G ZED more feasible". Chapter 7 ends the report with other enabling technology for ZED infrastructure and client devices, notably making them very long-life as well. "Battery elimination, supercapacitors, variants and massless energy for battery-free 6G ZED" includes the remarkable work on potentially replacing dumb load bearing structure such as your device case or telecom tower with smart material taking similar volume, weight and cost - so called massless energy where the same structure both harvests and stores energy - transformative for 6G.

"6G Communications: Self-powered Infrastructure and Zero Energy Client Devices ZED: Markets 2025-2045" is your unique guide to supplying and using these technologies essential to 6G success.
