Session Description

As 5G advancements reach commercial markets and the integration of satellites with mobile networks becomes seamless, the question of what 6G could offer emerges. And with industrial leaders spearheading efforts to revolutionize global coverage, is the outlook for the future G more optimistic than ever or is there more to maximise from existing technologies?

With the emergence of technologies like quantum computing enhancing spectral efficiency, energy and cost savings, while elevating intelligence levels and security to new levels, there is still much to uncover. The pivotal role of powerful AI in the network’s design and development further accentuates this potential. With these technologies poised for deployment, are we on the verge of achieving new levels of intelligent connectivity without the need of a new G?

The session will cover:

• Debate on the future G Horizon

• Key technologies in the connectivity evolution
