Why 6G Demands a New Test Approach

Understanding the potential of 6G begins with recognizing its unprecedented demands. With expected data rates surpassing 1 Tbps and latency dropping below 1 millisecond, 6G will unlock transformative capabilities that go far beyond today’s 5G networks.

At Orbis Systems, our focus is on developing testing solutions purpose-built for the next generation of wireless communication, addressing the complex requirements of ultra-fast, ultra-low-latency, and ultra-reliable networks.

The Orbis Systems 6G Innovation Centre is at the forefront of this evolution. By pushing the limits of RF testing, over-the-air (OTA) performance evaluation, and intelligent test automation, we are redefining the testing landscape to align with the disruptive potential of 6G.

What makes 6G different from 5G

6G, the sixth generation of wireless technology, will deliver ultra-high bandwidth and near-instantaneous data transmission. It will surpass 5G by enabling real-time extended reality (XR), holographic communication, and fully autonomous systems operating in FR3 (7–24 GHz) and even FR4+ (above 71 GHz) frequency bands.

To meet these advanced demands, test systems must evolve. 6G requires intelligent, high-frequency-capable platforms that support over-the-air (OTA) testing and real-world environment simulation, making traditional testing methods obsolete.

Orbis Systems is at the forefront of this transformation, developing cutting-edge OTA and RF test platforms engineered explicitly for the complexities of 6G.

Orbis Systems’ Vision 2030 for 6G Readiness

Orbis Systems' Vision 2030 is a long-term vision developed to align with the anticipated requirements of 6 G technology. We are retooling and enhancing our test facilities to support the bandwidth, complexity, and flexibility required by 6G networks. From AI-powered calibration systems to FR3 and FR4 spectrum simulation, our test configurations are designed to provide accuracy, scalability, and repeatability.

Role of the 6G Innovation Centre

Headquartered in Finland and supported by teams in the US, India, and China, the 6G innovation center leads R&D of Orbis Systems' future-proof test solutions. The center focuses on creating advanced test software, high-frequency OTA chambers, and simulation-driven environments to support the evolving demands of 6G technology.

The next-generation testbeds developed here are engineered to simulate real-world 6G environments, enabling early proof-of-concepts in areas such as compliance testing, beamforming validation, and terahertz-grade signal integrity. These platforms allow customers to accurately model and measure 6G performance in a controlled laboratory setting, well before field deployment.

Enhancing OTA Testing at High Frequencies

Orbis Systems is ramping up its OTA testing capability to support 6G-level requirements. These include robotic positioning for precise device orientation, hybrid absorbers to minimize signal reflection, and AI calibration for real-time tuning.

The test chambers are now replicating real-world environmental conditions, including movement and temperature. Simulations are capable of testing devices under various heat and cold conditions, mimicking car and outdoor applications. These advancements provide reliability when 6G devices are exposed to harsh conditions in the real world.

Modular test platforms for future flexibility

Since 6G frequency standards are still under development, flexibility is absolutely essential. Orbis Systems has engineered its next-generation test platforms with a fully modular design, enabling customers to easily swap RF components, expand bandwidth, or transition between frequency ranges, from FR3 to FR5, without requiring a complete system redesign.

Orbis Systems utilizes AI-driven automation in its modular test platforms to monitor signal paths, adjust test parameters, and optimize performance in real-time. These intelligent features help accelerate development, minimize manual intervention, and support iterative testing processes essential for 6G readiness.
