Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X70 modem uses AI to optimize mobile device performance and minimize energy consumption.

On day 2, we heard about where wireless needs to improve and the technologies that could bring on new use cases.

Although the first 6G consumer devices may be far away, work on 6G is underway. Academic and industry researchers are already experimenting and developing an understanding of key technologies as crucial inputs for standardization work. The industry must balance technical, business, and social considerations when developing 6G.

Technologies such as gate-all-around FETs and neuromorphic analog memory will increase speed and reduce power consumption in the chiplets that control artificial intelligence of things devices and systems. While 5G provides improved speed to consumers, it’s the industrial, automotive, infrastructure, and IoT applications that make 5G stand out. These applications will need IoT devices that…

At the 2021 (virtual) IEEE Microwave Symposium, the industry looked at where wireless is going and how it will get beyond 5G.

Two conferences, held at the same time, covered mostly the same topics.

If properly architected, there’s now a world of applications in which AI enables 5G, and a world where 5G enables AI, all collapsed in a transparent manner for enterprise, telco, and the edge. 5G brings wireless convenience combined with the speed and reliability of wired connections as where AI brings unprecedented intelligence to machines through…
