GSMA noted that 5G advancement will drive entirely new applications in areas such as smart transportation, smart cities and entertainment.
The launch of future 5G-Advanced networks will enable operators to monetize their previous investments in the 5G space, said Barbara Palerio, Senior Technical Director and Smart Mobility Lead at GSMA. RCR Wireless News.
“Initial work for the first release of 5G-Advanced will begin in 2022, with a goal of commercialization from late 2024 onwards. 4G has enabled the growth of social networks, app stores and the collaboration economy. Similarly, 5G Advanced will enable the creation of new monetization business models that don’t currently exist,” the executive said.
He went on to say that while the exact models and features that will be brought to market remain to be seen, industry collaborations such as the GSMA Open Gateway will open up opportunities in the 5G enterprise market, allowing mobile operators and hyperscalers to He added that they would cooperate. Partner with third-party application developers and vendors to help create new business opportunities.
“5G-Advanced not only provides a full range of smart connectivity, but also supports highly immersive and interactive applications that will be widely deployed in the entertainment, training and education sectors. , provides a strong opportunity to monetize existing investments in 5G by partnering with mobile operators and educating businesses on how they can address current challenges, as well as “We highlight the competitive advantage provided by new technologies enabled by Advanced through Wi-Fi technology,” Palerio said.
Palerio also pointed out that 5G-Advanced will help further develop the achievements made possible by the deployment of 5G technology, while also facilitating entirely new applications in areas such as smart transportation, smart cities, and entertainment.
“The increased power efficiency enabled by this technology will enhance support for cost-effective devices and power-sensitive applications such as industrial wireless sensor networks, smart watches, smart eyewear, and other wearables.” In the field, interactive applications such as virtual reality, augmented reality and augmented reality will benefit thanks to support for high data rates, low latency and seamless mobility,” she said.
In the transportation sector, Palerio highlighted that 5G Advance will help overcome connectivity issues by ensuring that users’ experience is not affected while riding high-speed trains or planes. This technology also provides communication support for unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), satellites, and his HAPS (high-altitude pseudosatellites), which operate as non-terrestrial networks that interact completely seamlessly with terrestrial networks. “In turn, UAVs offer a new type of smart transportation solution, while HAPS connectivity with satellites can complement terrestrial connectivity and help bridge coverage gaps for the maritime industry and IoT use cases.” Masu.”
The GSMA executive also said that both artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) will help evolve networks and help enable autonomous networks. “5G-Advanced leverages artificial intelligence and machine learning to enable efficient network configuration, operation, and optimization in a sustainable manner, thereby improving user experience while minimizing network energy consumption. Let me do it.
Commenting on the future impact of 5G-Advanced in industrial environments, the executive said that given the fact that this technology will serve a wide range of industries with different ecosystems and enable a host of new business models, 5G-Advanced -He said that there is a very high possibility that Advanced will be introduced. Advanced will definitely drive the adoption of private networks in vertical markets, especially in industries such as manufacturing, fintech, and smart mobility.
