October 15-16, 2018
Introduction
As the industry moves into the 4th quarter of 2018, this workshop enables IWPC members to assess learnings from global trials and deployments of 5G New Radio and mmWave and explore new use-case opportunities, as well as challenges and any major issues which need to be addressed going forward. We also consider priorities for 2019 and the next wave of innovation towards the transmission from 4G to 5G
Workshop Goals
- Where is 5G on the maturity scale from test bed, through closed and commercial trials to full deployment?
- How have test beds and trials performed against technology claims?
- What have we learned since 5G NR Stand-Alone and Non-Stand-Alone architectures were agreed (opportunities, challenges, roadblocks to mass deployment)?
- What does the industry need to do to meet the evolving needs for 5G going forward?
- How does the industry prioritize development efforts to ensure sustainable success for 5G
