Recommendation

The much-anticipated 5G revolution is imminent. Stakeholders worldwide envision a world that is better connected, with faster speeds and better capacity for the massive data required for innovation. With network slicing, beamforming and massive MIMO, 5G represents a paradigm shift, with the Internet of Things (IoT) as its driver. Member countries of the OECD will scale their infrastructure with investments in small cell distribution and backhaul connectivity to promote intensive growth in the IoT. By 2035 the world economy should feel the impact in key sectors.

Take-Aways

  • Wireless communications continue to evolve for faster, better connectivity.
  • 5G promises convergence in communications systems worldwide.
  • 5G is the first standard with the Internet of Things (IoT) in mind.
