Guest Editorial Special Section on Advanced Beam-Forming Antennas for Beyond 5G and 6G

Abstract

Beyond 5G and 6G technologies mark a pivotal evolution in the telecommunications landscape. They are not only anticipated to deliver unprecedented speed and capacity but also to serve as critical enablers for a host of emerging technologies and applications, including joint communications and sensing, autonomous driving, augmented reality (AR), virtual reality (VR), and the burgeoning Internet of Things (IoT) [1] , [2] , [3] . As we transition into this new era, the expectations for system performance, reliability, and versatility are higher than ever before.
