Scientists Work to Boost 5G, 6G Signals in Sohra

Scientists at the National Institute of Technology (NIT) Meghalaya and the North Eastern Space Applications Centre (NESAC) are collaborating on a research project to improve 5G and 6G connectivity in Sohra.

Sohra, located in the East Khasi Hills district, is known as the rainiest place on Earth. Researchers have found the size and intensity of rainfall in Sohra to be unique, with large raindrops affecting signal strength.

The size and intensity of rainfall here are unlike anywhere else in the world.

The joint project aims to develop new methods to enhance 5G and 6G signals in the region, addressing the challenges posed by heavy rainfall.
