We have now officially entered the 5G Era with many commercial networks and devices launching globally in the first half of 2019. While the first phase of 5G NR, based on 3GPP Release 15, primarily focuses on enhanced mobile broadband, our vision for 5G encompasses so much more. 5G is designed to scale for a wide range of devices, services, spectrum bands and deployment types. We are just at the beginning of the 5G evolution, and future 5G NR releases are poised to bring even better capabilities and efficiencies for mobile broadband and deliver new designs targeting automotive, industrial applications, and more.
Join this seminar to see how 5G NR is already enabling new and enhanced mobile experiences today, learn what the continued 5G NR evolution in Release 16 and beyond will bring, and understand how 5G is working hand-in-hand with AI advancements to transform the wireless edge.
