TL;DR: While the larger amounts of data heralded by 5G will zip through edge infrastructure without delay, once that same data reaches the less-advanced core infrastructure it could very well be throttled.
Abstract: 5G technology, with its promises of self-driving vehicles and immersive virtual reality, will be a data-hungry generation of wireless communications. But engineers have been so preoccupied with designing and building the low-latency networks for these emerging applications that they've neglected the rest of our vast, tangled telecom networks. The result is that there's now a growing gap between the capabilities of the fixed and mobile sides of these networks. • Think of the mobile side as the antennas and radio waves that deliver data to our devices. This is the side that has gotten a lot of attention in recent years with the advent of beamforming and millimeter waves. The fixed side is everything else—the cables, fibers, and switches that handle our long-distance communications. The United Nations' International Telecommunication Union (ITU), an agency that coordinates telecom infrastructure between countries, launched a focus group in August to address this emerging imbalance in wireless communications. • "Right now, when people start deploying [5G], it's the mobile side," says Richard Li, the chief scientist of future networks at Huawei and the chairman of the ITU Network 2030 focus group. "But the fixed network side is still 4G. They do not match." The upshot is that while the larger amounts of data heralded by 5G will zip through edge infrastructure without delay, once that same data reaches the less-advanced core infrastructure it could very well be throttled. • A big part of the problem is that the way data moves through our networks has been designed for efficiency on the mobile side. In the process, according to Li, our networks have become redundant and prone to clogging on the fixed side.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigate the role of technology management and its implication on telecom operators in changing face of digital economy and provide interesting insights to effectively manage new technologies to create user driven services.
Abstract: Technological advancement has been the main driver for development of telecom services. Convergence of telecom and internet played a significant role in growth of user driven services in terms of variety, number and revenue. Open access platforms and technological capabilities have empowered small entrepreneurs in India to develop services collaboratively benefiting to society. A new ecosystem has emerged (shift from value chain to value web) around telecom operators with multiple stakeholders—content and application providers, technology enablers and platform providers. This new ecosystem with user participation has potential to bridge the digital divide and foster inclusive growth. The primary objective of the study is to understand nature of interplay between technology development, technological innovation and service innovation. The secondary objective to study how needs of users are imbibed into technology development. We also investigate the role of technology management and its implication on telecom operators in changing face of digital economy. Qualitative case based research method is used. Cases are selected from one of the key Indian telecom operator. The findings of the study provide interesting insights to effectively manage new technologies to create user driven services.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors indicated the significant influences from co-construction and sharing of telecom infrastructure on the development of the Chinese telecom industry and proposed some solutions in hope that China's coconstruction-sharing action can be deeply promoted and telecom industry improved.
Abstract: Since the suggestion of co-construction and sharing,re-construction of China's telecom industry infrastructure has been effectively controlled.Nevertheless,a standard operation mode has not yet been reached in this field.The mode of co-construction and sharing of telecom infrastructure based on operation of the third-party companies has been successfully implemented in various foreign developed countries and telecom operation cooperations.Based on the conclusion and summery from certain successful cases of developed countries,this article indicates the significant influences from this mode on the development of telecom industry.Meanwhile combining the unique developing background of China's telecom industry,this article offers some solutions in hoping that China's co-construction and sharing action can be deeply promoted and telecom industry improved.

TL;DR: This novel disruptive deployment strategy focuses on using cost-efficient modules along with aggregated connectivity that target 6G data throughput and capacity requirement to provide a great perspective for ubiquitous modularity and pervasive networks which are clear and challenging objectives of 6G roadmaps.
Abstract: Our novel disruptive deployment strategy focuses on using cost-efficient modules along with aggregated connectivity that target 6G data throughput and capacity requirement. From our perspective it would be a great benefit to operators and users. Cost effectiveness will be met through integration and volume. Indeed, cost efficiency would be derived from mass-market of sub-6GHz devices (already mainly COTS) and later toward mmW such as 5G-FR2 and near-THz. Our shared vision provides a great perspective for ubiquitous modularity and pervasive networks which are clear and challenging objectives of 6G roadmaps. Authors propose a vision and are grateful for open discussions.
