Part 1: An Introduction & Overview of Telephony Standards Setting and the Emergence of 5G & 6G
Speaker: C. (Vino) Vinodrai, Telecommunications Engineer (Retired) & Steering Board Member, Wireless World Research Forum (WWRF).
Abstract:
This is Part 1 of a 2 part webinar on the above topic. Mobile telephony has passed through a number of generations since its introduction in Japan in 1979 in the context of 1G, the first automatic analog cellular system. Today, the majority of mobile phone users in OECD countries are at 4G with a global transition to 5G currently underway. Each G has occurred in roughly 10 year intervals. 6G is on the horizon with standards currently under development. The speakers in these two webinars are engaged in the 6G standards process.
This webinar will provide a brief overview of the history of wireless radio communications and in particular the various ‘generations’ over the past 40 some years. It also will include a review of how the standards for the latest generations of mobile telephony are developed today.
Part 2 will be held on July 30th and will address global research efforts for 5G and 6G, with an emphasis on how 6G is being developed to meet the United Nations 2030 Sustainability Goals by by Dr. Nigel Jefferies, Chairman, Wireless World Research Forum (WWRF), Zurich, Switzerland and C. (Vino) Vinodrai, Telecommunications Engineer (Retired) & Steering Board Member, WWRF, Toronto, Canada. Details to follow the July 8th webinar.
