À quelques jours du Mobile World Congress 2025 de Barcelone, Qualcomm frappe fort en dévoilant ses ambitions pour la 6G. John Smee, vice-président senior de l'ingénierie chez le géant américain des semi-conducteurs, qualifie 2025 d'année clé, marquant le début de la standardisation officielle de cette nouvelle génération de réseaux. Une annonce qui peut surprendre, alors que la 5G n'a pas encore atteint son plein potentiel.Qualcomm n'attend pas. Sa stratégie repose sur une intégration massive de l'intelligence artificielle (IA) dans les réseaux et les appareils. L'entreprise travaille déjà avec Nokia Bell Labs et Rhode & Schwarz pour démontrer les avantages des réseaux optimisés par l'IA. L'objectif ? Rendre les réseaux plus intelligents et plus adaptatifs, capables de réagir en temps réel à la charge du trafic, à l'interférence et à la mobilité des utilisateurs. Cette approche repose sur des protocoles natifs d'IA, qui permettront d'optimiser les performances réseau en fonction des applications et des besoins individuels. Une avancée qui profitera également à la 5G Advanced, lancée l'an dernier avec la version 3GPP Release 18, et qui constitue une étape intermédiaire avant l'arrivée de la 6G.Qualcomm mise aussi sur l'évolution des systèmes MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) pour exploiter une nouvelle bande de fréquences, la FR3, située entre 7 et 15 GHz. Cette bande intermédiaire pourrait offrir jusqu'à 400 MHz de bande passante supplémentaire, avec des débits améliorés et une couverture comparable aux fréquences inférieures à 7 GHz. Les premiers tests du système Giga-MIMO FR3 sont prometteurs : ils montrent des gains significatifs en vitesse et en couverture. De son côté, Samsung et Arm, qui planchent aussi sur la 6G, estiment que cette nouvelle technologie pourrait atteindre des vitesses records de 1 térabit par seconde grâce au traitement parallèle de poche. Positionnée entre la bande FR1 (sub-6GHz) et la bande FR2 (au-dessus de 24 GHz), la FR3 se distingue par sa faible latence, son adaptabilité aux objets connectés (IoT) et sa capacité à transmettre des volumes massifs de données. Avec cette feuille de route, Qualcomm entend bien façonner l'avenir de la connectivité mobile et prendre une longueur d'avance dans la course à la 6G. Hébergé par Acast.

Bellen moet over een tijdje met flink betere geluidkwaliteit kunnen, na een eerste test van Nokia vandaag. Joe van Burik vertelt erover in deze Tech Update. Bellen kan tegenwoordig via apps zoals Signal en WhatsApp, ook met video. Maar de ouderwetse telefoonlijn is er ook nog steeds, al klinkt die over het algemeen een stuk minder wat betreft de geluidskwaliteit. Nokia kan dat veranderen door een nieuwe standaard, 5G Advanced, die werkt met het huidige 5G-netwerk. Daarmee krijgt niet alleen de geluidskwaliteit een flinke boost maar is er ook ondersteuning voor ruimtelijk geluid - vergelijkbaar met wat moderne geluidssets en koptelefoons bieden voor films, muziek en games. Dat heeft de CEO van Nokia vandaag ervaren, Pekka Lundmark, terwijl hij de Finse ambassadeur van digitale zaken belde. Nokia ontwikkelt die standaard en wil deals sluiten met telefoonmakers om die uit te rollen. Dus het kan nog wat jaartjes duren voordat we daadwerkelijk in hoge kwaliteit en ruimtelijk geluid met elkaar kunnen bellen. Verder in deze Tech Update: Apple houdt vanavond om zeven uur de langverwachte presentatie waarin het bekendmaakt hoe AI gebruikt gaat worden, onder meer door middel van een samenwerking met ChatGPT-maker OpenAI, als de geruchten blijken te kloppen See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Nokia, célèbre pour son héritage pionnier dans le domaine de la téléphonie mobile, frappe à nouveau fort en dévoilant le tout premier appel "audio et vocal immersif au monde". Cette avancée révolutionnaire, réalisée sur un réseau 5G et avec des smartphones commerciaux, promet de transformer radicalement nos conversations téléphoniques en recréant un son spatialisé en temps réel.Imaginez-vous plongé dans une conversation où le son vous enveloppe, vous donnant l'impression d'être physiquement présent avec votre interlocuteur. C'est précisément l'objectif de cette innovation, qui vise à apporter une profondeur et un réalisme inédits aux échanges téléphoniques. Selon Nokia, il s'agit là de la plus grande avancée dans le domaine des appels vocaux en direct depuis l'introduction des appels monophoniques utilisés aujourd'hui dans nos smartphones et ordinateurs.Cette prouesse technologique repose sur le codec Immersive Voice and Audio Services (IVAS), développé par le consortium 3GPP, auquel Nokia apporte sa contribution. Le codec IVAS exploite l'audio stéréo et binaural pour créer une spatialisation du son, offrant ainsi une expérience audio tridimensionnelle. Ce qui rend cette technologie encore plus remarquable, c'est qu'elle ne requiert qu'un smartphone équipé de deux microphones, une configuration déjà largement répandue sur le marché.L'arrivée de cette innovation s'inscrit dans le cadre de la norme 5G-Advanced, également appelée 5.5G, une évolution majeure du réseau cellulaire qui promet des avancées significatives en termes de débits, de latence et de consommation d'énergie. Le déploiement de la 5G-Advanced devrait débuter ce mois-ci, avec une prévision de finalisation d'ici fin 2025. Cela laisse aux opérateurs de réseaux, ainsi qu'aux fabricants de puces et de téléphones, le temps nécessaire pour adapter leurs produits et équipements à cette nouvelle norme, ouvrant ainsi la voie à une nouvelle ère de communication immersive.

Industry trade group GSMA stated that more than 88,000 people attended its recent MWC Barcelona 2023 event, a number that might be hard to verify but seems legitimate considering the masses of people spread throughout the multiple halls of Barcelona's cavernous Gran Via. While attendance might not have matched the 109,000 people GSMA said had attended the last pre-Covid event in 2019, many in attendance were still amazed by the strong turnout for the mobile telecommunication industry's largest annual event. On this week's SDxCentral 7 Layers podcast, I am joined by Reporter Julia King to take a look back at the MWC Barcelona 2023 event, highlighting some of the bigger news and trends to emerge from the show. This includes: • The network API push highlighted by GSMA's Open Gateway initiative that has so far attracted nearly two-dozen operators and vendors attempting to squeeze more revenue from 5G networks. • The differing dynamics between vendor heavyweights Ericsson, Huawei, and Nokia. Ericsson's event splash was somewhat subdued due to ongoing operational challenges; Huawei looked to counter ongoing geopolitical struggles with sheer mass; and Nokia deconstructed its logo to emphasis its operating momentum. • There was considerable open radio access network (RAN) news from the event, especially from European-based operators that have been aggressively trialing different open RAN solutions and have staked out deployment benchmarks. • And what would a telecom focused event be without looking toward the future. In this case, it was expected benefits from soon-to-be-available 5G-Advanced specifications and further-down-the-road 6G technology. We are still at least a year away from the former, and at least five years away from the latter, but what fun is a trade show if you can't dream a little. We hope you enjoy this audio look back at the MWC Barcelona 2023 event, and make sure to check out all of our coverage of the show on our dedicated event page. Learn more about your ad choices.
