From 5G to 6G: The key challenges to overcome | AI/ML IN 5G CHALLENGE
As communication networks evolve, we are rapidly approaching the theoretical limits for wireless data transmission set by Shannon’s Law. 5G networks are improving data rates by providing more spectrum and enhancing the spectral efficiency, for example through the use of Massive MIMO systems. These mechanisms along with network densification allow 5G networks to push real-world data rates closer to theoretical Shannon capacity. The evolution towards Beyond-5G (B5G) and 6G networks must balance the expected explosive growth of data traffic, the integration of sensor services with real-time analytics (network as a sensor), and massive network densification with the demand for global sustainability and fairness.\n\nThis AI for Good talk discusses the need to address technical challenges and introduces the “6G Research and Innovation Cluster” (6G-RIC), which is undertaking an ambitious and comprehensive interdisciplinary research program to address the challenges associated with B5G and 6G. \n\nIn particular, the need for profound reduction of energy consumption in B5G and 6G as an advisable economic goal, but also of particular social importance. Similarly, security will play a critical role in social acceptance, but also in averting economic harm. Finally, artificial intelligence (AI) will be one of the key technology drivers for B5G and 6G. While AI undeniably has great potential, it does not come at zero cost. The gains achieved through AI must be put in relation to the corresponding effort and resources required. Join the discussion on why we need to approach the transition from 5G to 6G in a holistic manner and consider AI as an integral part of the overall system towards “integrated AI.” \n\nSpeaker: \nSławomir Stańczak, Focus Group Chairman, Fraunhofer Heinrich Hertz Institute\n\nJoin the Neural Network! \nhttps://aiforgood.itu.int/neural-network/\nThe AI for Good networking community platform powered by AI. \nDesigned to help users build connections with innovators and experts, link innovative ideas with social impact opportunities, and bring the community together to advance the SDGs using AI.\n\n Watch the latest #AIforGood videos!\n\n\nExplore more #AIforGood content:\n AI for Good Top Hits\n • Top Hits \n\n AI for Good Webinars\n • AI for Good Webinars \n\n AI for Good Keynotes\n • AI for Good Keynotes \n\n Stay updated and join our weekly AI for Good newsletter:\nhttp://eepurl.com/gI2kJ5\n\n Discover what's next on our programme!\nhttps://aiforgood.itu.int/programme/\n\nCheck out the latest AI for Good news:\nhttps://aiforgood.itu.int/newsroom/\n\nExplore the AI for Good blog:\nhttps://aiforgood.itu.int/ai-for-good-blog/\n\n Connect on our social media:\nWebsite: https://aiforgood.itu.int/\nTwitter: https://twitter.com/ITU_AIForGood\nLinkedIn Page: https://www.linkedin.com/company/26511907 \nLinkedIn Group: https://www.linkedin.com/groups/8567748 \nInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/aiforgood \nFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/AIforGood\n\nWhat is AI for Good?\nThe AI for Good series is the leading action-oriented, global & inclusive United Nations platform on AI. The Summit is organized all year, always online, in Geneva by the ITU with XPRIZE Foundation in partnership with over 35 sister United Nations agencies, Switzerland and ACM. The goal is to identify practical applications of AI and scale those solutions for global impact.\n\nDisclaimer:\nThe views and opinions expressed are those of the panelists and do not reflect the official policy of the ITU.\n\n#5GNetworks #MachineLearning5G
