Panel-B
This panel gathered the executives from Qualcomm, Ericsson, ARM & Google, to discuss the key technologies in the evolution towards 5G & how to collaborate efficiently to build next-gen intelligent network of 5G.
Mr. Matt Grob, EVP, Qualcomm
- Low latency is a challenge that require careful design in the radio interfacealso careful placement of functions in the network.
- Coverage at 2.6GHzmm wave is a new field with beamforming, different Antenna patterns, efficient RF structures, wide band, linearlow power PA.
- Should not associate any particular band with 5G but to include mm wave, sub-6GHzlower bands.
Mr. Erik Ekudden, VP&CTO, Ericsson
- Low latency is a tricky piece that truly require distributed cloud infrastructuregood implementation on the devicechipset.
- Together with GTI, we should make test bed available make sure that we can learn fromtry out things, which is especially important when it comes to industrial applicationsuse cases.
- We have a toolbox for 5G system that combines evolution of LTE, NB-IoT/Cat-Mnew radio providing higher performancelower latency.
Mr. Dave Weidner, Director of BD IoT Services Group, ARM
- We are trying to enable common security architecturefoundational technology so that as 5G networks becomes pervasive we don’t have to rewrite applicationre-architect at the device level.
- The focus is choosing the right solution based on what is going to do because of the applicationnot what technology you are picking at this point of time.
- No one party on its own could be successfulit takes agreementworking together to build out these capabilitiessolutions. We really view it as a partnership that helps to scale outthe technology will help realize some of visions we are working for.
Mr. Preston Marshall, Engineering Director of Access division, Alphabet (Google)
- We need a heterogeneous IoT with lines of different solutions to be broken downa new set of business relationships.
- Just the beamforming along is going to bring a significant contribution to later LTE5G technology.
