the 3GPP is in charge of handling the standards. It was formed during 3rd Generation cellular days hence the name. They are currently working on 6th Generation cellular. the number in the name is the generation number of the technology and refers to the MODULATION METHOD used, not the frequency it is applied to. For instance, the speed achieved in 5G is not solely derived from the higher frequencise that the 3GPP advises but, rather the fact that it is the first MMIMO (Massive Multi Input Multi Output) technology. It works just fine on whatever band it's applied to. 6G, however, is MMIMO but more biased to the mm wave length and THz frequencies. The problem with that is the urban clutter absorption which dictates that the sites need to be about 200m apart to function at the Terrabit rates they're claiming. Very few cities in the world have achieved the 5oom spacing of the 5G recommendation so I feel 6G is largely dead-in-the-water for nearly every operator. Very few subscribers have a need nor want higher speeds that are available on 4G/5G which is up to 100Mbps in most practical applications. MIT might have had some say in the 5G spec. but I seriously doubt that they alone created the spec.

Oh; to clarify the "radar" functionality. 2G was able to provide that functionality and your WiFi also will do the same thing, with the right signal processing.
