5G competition enters the push phase

Any industry will focus on the latest technologies for its survival and development. In the long run, I will be the first person to eat crabs ". Although the deployment of 4G networks in China is in full swing, enterprise giants such as Ericsson and Qualcomm have long looked at the R & D of 5g technology.

Strategy Analytics wireless network and platform (WNP) Services released the latest research report "5g competition started?" It is pointed out that in order to win the 5g competition, mobile communication enterprises are now positioned right now. The analysis suggests that communication companies should begin to define their own strategies to influence the needs of next-generation systems, so as to ensure that their R & D investment is converted into a powerful 5g patent position.

The first round of 5g technology R & D by leading manufacturers is gaining momentum. Samsung is the latest company in the industry that demonstrates its 5G technology. Ericsson and NTT DoCoMo, leaders in the traditional wireless transmission technology field, also showed their 5G Research Progress. China Telecom has even set up an industry working group to promote research on 5G technology.

Yang Guang, Senior Analyst of wireless network and platform (WNP) service, said: "The official process of 5g standardization will be officially started in ITU-R WRC-15 in, therefore, the current '5' study is only in the push phase before the formal process. However, this series of warm-up activities are crucial for the industry to reach technical consensus and build an ecosystem. This is also a critical period for industry technology giants to predict the core elements of the future system and obtain relevant patents ."

Susan Welsh de Grimaldo, director of wireless network and platform (WNP) service, added: "With the research and definition of 5g Key Technologies becoming clearer, communication enterprises will have significant 5g initiatives in the next two years. Large European and East Asian communication enterprises (China, Japan, and Korea) are already building their 5g vision. In this context, the 5G strategy of enterprises in North America, especially the two chip giants Qualcomm and Intel, deserves close attention ."

Like 4g lte, the focus of the next generation of 5G systems is still on faster data transmission rates, and other 5G system demands will gradually emerge in the industry ".
