Technology Deployment for In-Building and Private Wireless Networks

4G and 5G cellular networks inside buildings are based on a variety of network architectures and spectrum bands. New business models have also emerged to subsidize deployment of such networks instead of just relying on financing from mobile network operators. Enterprises who have mainly used Wi-Fi as their only private networking technology now have 3GPP based options to either deploy their own managed private LTE or 5G networks using lightly licensed (rest of the world) or shared licensed (USA) mid-band spectrum or subscribe to a dedicated 5G private network slice from mobile network operators. Utilization of FR2 spectrum bands like mmWave with careful RF planning for indoor venues should also be considered where significant capacity enhancement is required.

WEBINAR: Achieving Ubiquitous Connectivity for Future Vehicles

Today‘s automotive customers and OEMs demand high-performance mobile network services. The existing mobile network infrastructure and performance do not meet the requirement to be connected everywhere. An architecture and technology approach to solve today‘s challenges for future vehicle communication (connectivity, coverage, and capacity): Digital connectivity architecture (in-vehicle), vehicle distributed antenna system (vDAS) architectures & concepts; 5G FR1 MIMO, 5G mmWave, satellite (NTN) broadband, beamforming antennas; Synergies to the E/E architecture, e.g., for Software Defined Vehicles (SDV).

WEBINAR: Layer 2 Communication in Cellular Network Use Cases and Technology

In the crucial domains of hospitals, utilities and factories, IT networks rely heavily on Ethernet technology. Recognizing the growing demand for improved mobility within these networks, a critical need has emerged. While robust mobility solutions have been successfully developed for cellular networks, traditionally based on IP technology, a transformative feature has been introduced by 3GPP, known as 5GLAN. The 5GLAN feature represents a significant leap forward, enabling the utilization of native Ethernet frames within cellular networks. This innovative approach not only enhances the mobility of devices within local area networks (LANs) but also does so in an exceptionally cost-efficient manner, making it a powerful tool for delivering robust mobility functionality. Exploring use cases that have been successfully executed using the groundbreaking 5GLAN technology and a deep dive into the technological intricacies, shedding light on how 5GLAN is revolutionizing mobility within local area networks. Insight into the cost-efficient and powerful solutions that 5GLAN brings to the table, unlocking new possibilities for mobility in critical sectors such as healthcare, utilities, and manufacturing.

WEBINAR: Next-Gen UWB and Spectral Usage in the 5-10 GHz Bands

Impulse-based ultra-wideband (UWB) has recently gained significant market momentum. Such radio technology utilizes the 3GHz to 10GHz frequency band to enable emerging secure ranging, localization, and communication applications. With the newly developed IEEE 802.15.4ab standard, standardized radar sensing, especially in-cabin sensing, has become another demanding application. On the other hand, the UWB frequency band partially overlaps the lower part of the FR3 band (6GHz to 24GHz) such that the conventionally used UWB Channel 5 and even Channel 9 become more congested as the spectrum is and will be used by other wireless protocols.

Automotive Radar and ADAS Evolution for 2030 and Beyond

Driven to massive progress and innovation in SoC techniques and massive AI incorporation, a dramatic trend towards central processing is observed. For vision systems this has been the trend and has led to intelligent central units and simple “stupid” camera heads. Can we expect the same path in automotive Radar? A second potential innovative path is radar networks. Can we envision radar networks that provide the radar performance of real imaging radars (today 48x48 RxTx)? Examining state-of-the-art technology innovation, assessing centralised and distributed architecture innovation. Identifying potential future development paths for SoC providers, Radar-Tier 2 and Radar-Tier1. Assessing optimum architectures for L1-5 vehicles and considering interconnection bus options.

IWPC Interactive Webinar Opportunities

During this challenging period of travel restrictions and other business disruptions, we wanted to make sure you were aware of a member service which can help try and keep you engaged with the global wireless community.

IWPC offers hosted interactive webinars which are available free of charge to members and can provide a platform to share information and help you gain feedback from the global IWPC community and beyond. These webinars can be conducted to be much more participatory and interactive than the typical marketing oriented webinars you get invited to in your email every day.
