Introduction

As the industry transitions from 4G to 5G, this workshop will explore the landscape for connectivity in India and consider the options and practicality of moving to 5G. What does the Indian capacity crunch look like and what are the local coverage limitations? Assessing what role Massive MIMO will play, assessing gains and if this is enough to warrant investment in this highly complex technology. Considering current challenges in providing rural connectivity, how can we leverage technology evolution to provide self- sustaining solutions for rural connectivity? Assessing challenges and opportunities in providing rural connectivity with 5G technology. Considering open and non-open standards, basestation hardware movements using latest semiconductor technologies.

Workshop Goals
