With a range of innovation happening in the mobile networks space this year, our experts will be producing research on a variety of topics and can collaborate with you to bring their insights to your audience. Some of the past topics that we can work with you on this year are:
The migration path to 5G coreLed by Roberto Kompany, Principal Analyst, Service Provider Networks The 5G standalone (SA) architecture will require the 5G core (5GC), which will support communications service providers (CSPs) to offer new use cases and lower their operational costs. Yet by mid-2022, almost 4 years after the initial 5G rollouts, only 22 CSPs have deployed 5GC. The migration path to 5GC is complex and CSPs must carefully weigh the alternatives and ensure their strategy can meet and deliver on their business goals.
Should we get excited about 5G-advanced?Led by Remy Pascal, Principal Analyst, Mobile Infrastructure5G-advanced is the evolution of 5G starting from 3GPP release-18. It is fair to say that 5G has disappointed in some aspects, particularly the differentiation with 4G. But some of the most exciting innovation will potentially come with the second stage of 5G i.e. 5G-A.
Open RAN, why is it not happening faster?Led by Remy Pascal, Principal Analyst, Mobile InfrastructureNew entrants and supporters of open RAN face challenges and fierce competition from incumbents, but open RAN continues to be at the center of conversations and continues to receive backing from key operators.
Roaming and wholesale in a 5G eraLed by Julian Watson, Principal Analyst, Wholesale Telecoms5G SA deployment is gathering pace. Increasingly, enterprises, consumers will expect to access the same services, applications and experiences at home and when roaming. This represents a significant commercial opportunity for MNOs. To reap this opportunity, MNOs must navigate considerable technical complexity, such as a transition from home routing to regional or local breakout, and commercial wholesale models that integrate performance-level metrics and as well as volumes. Working with the right partners will be vital to navigating this complexity and capturing new revenue opportunities.
Delivering greener networks, not greenwashingLed by James Crawshaw, Practice LeaderGSMA members have adopted a target of carbon neutrality by 2050, with energy efficiency as a fundamental requirement for 5G. Virtualization, disaggregation, and cloudification can help reduce energy consumption, as does more efficient coding, better spectrum management, and sleep modes. Yet operators need to look beyond energy consumed. This webinar will look at the key factors shaping green networks in the telecom business, from the environmental impact of infrastructure, operations, and equipment, to the materials chosen and sourced, to how equipment and operations are designed.
6G: Developing an application-aware networkLed by Dario Talmesio, Research Director, Service Provider Strategy and RegulationStudies for the 6G definition of 6G have only recently started to take momentum. As the market will rapidly evolve to 5G-Advanced, the industry will need to start standardizing 6G and insert the demand from all industries and economic sectors that will take advantage of 6G. Understanding the applications that might drive 6G will be an important preparatory work for service providers and hyperscale operators but most importantly for all technology companies that will have to place their early bets on the technology.
