Future ready networks and path to 6G
The IEEE CTSoc is pleased to invite all interested to the mentioned live Distinguished Lecture Session.
Abstract
The starting point for this lecture is that the world of the 2030s will be shaped by socio-economic, technology and user need trends. These trends will drive requirements for the networks of the future and foster the creation of new multi-party ecosystems. In this talk, a concise vision of the opportunities framed by the concepts of digital-physical fusion and human augmentation will be presented. The associated technology enablers will help unlock a myriad of new opportunity for consumer, enterprise and industry alike. Next generation networks and their advanced capabilities will be key to realize these opportunities. On the path to 6G, 5G advanced will boost experience, operability and usage of novel services. AI/ML technologies will help improve operability as well as radio access network energy efficiency. To bring the metaverses future to life fully, novel 6G technologies will be needed. Key 6G technologies will be presented including new spectrum technologies, AI native air interface, extreme connectivity, network-as-a-sensor, security, privacy and trust as well as elements of architectural transformation.
