Communication technologies continue to develop at full speed. The latest example of this is 5G technology, which is slowly becoming widespread. However, this progress is not at the expected pace when it comes to applicability. Fortunately, some steps are being taken to fix this issue. Lastly, 6G Smart Networks and Services Industry Association (6G-IA) and the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) have signed a nduerstanding to boost cooperation on network studies.
The Europe-based 6G Smart Networks and Services Industry Association (6G-IA) and the European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI) have signed a nduerstanding to boost cooperation on 5G and 6G. The 6G-IA is focused on “beyond 5G” (B5G) and 6G research. Like pre-standardization activities, policy and regulatory issues, 5G and 6G frequency concepts, international collaboration and verticals’ engagement to shape next-generation industrial use cases.
The main goal of the 6G-IA is to contribute to Europe’s leadership on 5G, 5G evolution and SNS/6G research. As part of the agreement, 6G-IA will be involved in ETSI’s Research, Innovation and Standards Ecosystem (RISE) group as well as the ETSI Technology Radar (ETR) activities mapping emerging technology areas.
6G-IA and ETSI are working together to make sure their research and standards for 5G and 6G are in line with each other. They will also launch projects to help define future networks. They will also share information with other groups that focus on 6G technology. The Smart Networks and Services Joint Undertaking (SNS JU), a partnership between the European Commission and 6G-IA, is expected to launch the first phase of 5G/6G research projects in early 2021. These projects will play a key role in the definition of next-generation networks.
The ETSI Research Conference in early February will provide a platform for these new projects to present their purpose and plans and exchange with standards experts on their standardization roadmaps.
