MORNING KEYNOTE: AI in 5G networks – a match made in heaven?

What can AI contribute to the operational and business models enabled by 5G, including to 5G’s monetisation? Can AI help leverage the combined strengths of fixed fibre and 5G?

Cloud-native technologies are paving the way for 5G Advance

IoT in the era of RedCap

How much as reduced capabilities (RedCap) been embraced in the IoT world and where does the market go from here?

PANEL: Taking network automation to a new level with AI

It’s still early days for operators working out how they can best harness AI in the network, but more and better automation is one of the most promising areas. A look at progress and why it matters.

How 5G Location Empowers Telcos to Help Improve Border Security

The enhanced capabilities of 5G networks allow operators to provide high-accuracy location data to government agencies to improve border security. Using geofencing and other techniques, agents can use this data to create alerts for crossings outside normal ports of entry. This and other location technologies will be explored in this session.
