Introduction
IoT remains an ambiguous term, in need of clarity for the numerous use-cases identified. In order to address first market requests, different technologies have emerged using non licensed bands, and more recently 3GPP has pushed the standardization of solutions which could be used in licensed bands for machine type communication, targeting very low data rate and very low power consumption services. The full range of IoT applications however goes beyond what has been considered so far, and it will impact numerous vertical sectors, including Agriculture, Automotive, E-Health, Multimedia, Medical and more. While some use cases could be addressed with existing technologies, others require a further evolution of mobile networks to embrace the full potential of the IoT market, a step which will be one of the fundamental pillars for 5G.
Workshop Goals
- Clarify which verticals will be impacted by the introduction of IoT connectivity and identify new business opportunities
- Identify which use cases are currently considered for the internet of things, identifying the key requirements for each use case in terms of data rate, battery life, latency, number of connections, mobility, device cost, etc.
- Assess current proprietary, unlicensed and 3GPP technologies for the Internet of Things, clarifying roadmaps for deployment, and understanding which use cases can be addressed by these technologies
- Discuss advancement of IoT proposed as part of 5G: mMTC and uMTC. Clarify which new use cases will be enabled by 5G
- Clarify priorities and the time frame for IoT in 5G and which use cases should be addressed first?
