Descripción
This 90-minute session explores the ongoing evolution of the network. We look at how 5G Advanced (3GPP Releases 18, 19 and 20) enables the continuing transformation of the network into an increasingly resilient, flexible, and intelligent platform capable of supporting a much wider set of advanced consumer, and (especially) industrial use cases.
By exploring key features and concepts like Non-Terrestrial (Satellite) Networks, the AI-driven air interface, and enhanced positioning - and developments in both the architecture and protocols of the underlying system that bring a range of performance benefits – we will see how 5G Advanced can meet the rigorous demands of industrial automation and immersive eXtended Reality (XR).
We then shift focus to the early research and architectural pillars of 6G, examining the leap toward "AI-Native" networks and Integrated Sensing and Communication (ISAC), where the network functions as both a data carrier and a radar-like sensor. From Terahertz (THz) frequencies to "zero-energy" IoT devices that harvest ambient power, this session provides an initial look at the emerging and potential technologies that are expected to fuse the digital and physical worlds into a single, ubiquitous ecosystem.
