Introduction
Considering new frequency bands as an extension of existing cellular use-cases and how sensor connectivity relates to existing 4G and to 5G. Exploring connected sensors for new use-cases to mimic human sensory systems - Robots, Artificial Intelligence (AI) – What role will THz and higher frequency bands play – considering how this will come into the market place and what will the challenges be for antennas etc.
Workshop Goals
- What is the business case for IoT beyond low throughput M2M
- What bands are being considered
- What are the emerging IoT use-cases (i.e. robotics, cars, etc) and their respective implications
- What is the state of the art in embedded modems, multiband mmWave products, fixed wireless, and smartphones?
- Which bands will show up first, what will be twinned?
- How do robots mimic humans 5 senses? High frequency – Vision, Low frequency - Hearing, etc.
- Automation is currently mainly wired in factories - will this go wireless - how does this relate to IoT?
