The Path to Network Infrastructure Agility

Today, consumers in over 20 countries can access 5G speeds on their smartphones.Over the next few years, standardization work will pave the way for huge enhancements in throughput, latency and availability that promise to open up the benefits of 5G to many new industries and applications. For organizations to reap these benefits, the 5G ecosystem must manage component-level risks around scaling mmWave deployment, thermal management, optimizing device footprint through component count reduction, and extending battery life. This webinar will discuss the future evolution of 5G, the growth opportunities and challenges around 5G-enhanced mobile broadband, massive IoT and mission-critical communications (MCS) and how component-level risks can be managed to achieve commercial success.

Virtualization is among the fastest growing IT trends and has delivered undeniable benefits to enterprise computing. However, security often emerges as one of the key concerns with the CIOs, as enterprises look to eliminate their network bottlenecks.

5G, with its gigabytes data throughput and ultralow latency, can access numerous high-value sectors such as 3D robotic control, virtual reality monitoring, and remote medical control that earlier technologies could not. Over the last two years, we have seen an increasing number of consumer network rollouts and field testing. Furthermore, we are seeing some of the most prominent industry companies begin to implement 5G in their businesses. This is only the beginning of how 5G will eventually alter and accelerate breakthroughs in industries like automotive, entertainment, computing, manufacturing, and ultimately the way we work and live.

Sub-terahertz and terahertz (THz) waves, ranging from 0.1 THz to 10 THz, fall in the spectral region between microwave and optical waves. The prospect of enabling transfer rates in the terabit/sec range make them a key research area of 6G mobile communication. Sub-THz technologies require highly integrated frontends, including array antennas, that necessitate advanced over-the-air testing methods with a frequency range up to 300 GHz. To fully exploit the potential of this frequency range for future wireless communications, it is also crucial to understand the propagation characteristics by performing channel measurements.
