As 5G evolves for both public and private networks, edge demands will significantly impact the fluidity and structure of 5G infrastructure. Mobile network operators (public 5G) and enterprises (private 5G) face a formidable challenge: How to deploy a wireless infrastructure that can effortlessly scale with future upgrades (e.g., 5G Advanced) and demands, without incurring the traditional capital and operational expenses associated with system redesigns and rip-and-replace costs.

This talk will focus on the foundation of all wireless infrastructure—the 4G+5G baseband System on a Chip (SoC). We will explore how a "soft modem" can adapt to evolving infrastructural demands across small cells and macro cells, address new application use cases, and respond to emerging megatrends such as 5G non-terrestrial networks. Additionally, we will discuss market fundamentals impacting 5G deployments and share personal insights into the founding and evolution of a 5G semiconductor startup in the era of AI.
