Abstract
The next-generation cellular network will aim to overcome the existing Fifth Generation (5G) networks’ shortcomings. At the moment, academics and business are concentrating their efforts on the Sixth Generation (6G) network. This 6G technology is expected to be the next great game-changer in the telecommunications sector. Due to the outbreak of COVID-19, the entire globe has turned to virtual meetings and live video interactions in various fields as healthcare, business, and education. We explore the most recent viewpoints and future technology trends that are most likely to drive 6G in this paper. The incorporation of blockchain in 6G, will allow the network to efficiently monitor and manage resource consumption and sharing. We explore the potential of blockchain for sharing in 6G utilizing a variety of application scenarios in the smart city. To strengthen security and privacy in 6G networks, we introduce potential difficulties and solutions with various 6G technologies. In addition, we examine the security and privacy issues that may arise as a result of the current 6G standards and prospective 6G uses. Overall, our study aims to give insightful direction for future 6G security and privacy research.
