Even though Australia blindly followed the US down the Huawei-accusation rabbit hole, the Chinese vendor hasn’t given up on the country, using the 6G carrot to tempt the Aussies back into the fray.
5G has only just arrived but people are already wondering what’s next. This special briefing examines the progress of 5G and provides early insight into what 6G might bring.
Welcome to the latest Telecoms.com Intelligence Monthly Briefing, which focuses on what’s next for 5G, including 6G. T5G has only just arrived but people are already wondering what’s next. This special report examines the progress of 5G and provides early insight into what 6G might bring.
We caught up with Stéphane Téral of IHS Markit at the recent 5G World event to talk, appropriately enough, about 6G. Téral offers an early look at some of the thinking going into the sixth generation of wireless communications technology, including frequencies approaching visible light and perfecting some of the stuff introduced in 5G.
South Korean operator SK Telecom is hoping to take the lead in the development of 5G towards 6G in partnership with most of the big kit vendors.
Samsung has reportedly announced the formation of the Advanced Communications Research Centre, which will have the mission of creating a 6G leadership position for Samsung.
The FCC has unveiled plans to create a new regulatory framework for spectrum above 95 GHz.
A few days after Donald Trump tweeted about 6G, for which he was broadly ridiculed, Finland’s scientists proved he had a point by announcing their plan at MWC 2019 to get started on it.
This special episode of the pod was shot early so you can all listen to it on the plane to Barcelona for Mobile World Congress 2019. The regular team is joined by special guest Paul Nolan of CC Group to give us a perspective from the many, many years he has been attending. They compare experiences of the show itself and then discuss what are likely to be the major themes being discussed this year, including 5G phones and the mounting aggro between the US and China that Europe is stuck in the middle of.
Somebody seems to have told US President Donald Trump there’s a mobile industry trade show coming up so he’s using his favoured medium to get involved.
Cisco forecasts that 5G connections will go from nothing in 2017 to 3.4% of the global total in 2022. Over the same period annual mobile data traffic will reach 930 exabytes, a seven-fold growth.
It wouldn’t be a 2019 Telecoms.com podcast without a fair bit of chat about Huawei so the guys look to get it out of the way first this week. Then, just for a laugh, they decide to have a go at 6G even though 5G hasn’t even got going yet and we’ll let you determine whether or not that was a good idea. With MWC nearly upon us they conclude with a look at the smartphone market and wonder if it will ever surprise us again.
We can hear the groans already, but we’re going to do it anyway. Let’s have a look at what 6G could possibly contribute to the connected economy.
