Abstract:
In this talk, we will present the use cases and application motivating the invention of 5G Wireless Technologies, as one of the building blocks of new Industry 4.0 innovation. The concept used in the design and development of 5G technologies 5G have revolutionized the role of wireless technologies in the lives of people. Due to potential diversity of the interest of audiences, the talk will focus on the use cases, applications, and the way 5G is revolutionizing the communication technology more than the technical details of 5G technologies. THe talk will provide a short description of current deployment and device status and potential opportunities around the world (including Middle East countries), and briefly outlines potential future development of the wireless ecosystem.
