About the Course: Roughly every 10 years, a new generation of mobile wireless technology emerges to upgrade and enhance the current system, while also addressing existing challenges and issues.
2G was primarily designed for voice and SMS, while 3G introduced faster internet. 4G improved speeds significantly, transforming mobile networks into true broadband systems, while also addressing power consumption issues in devices. 5G further increased speeds, rivalling wired broadband in many countries, and became the first mobile wireless technology to focus on industrial IoT, private networks, reducing latency, and improving reliability—enabling groundbreaking use cases that were previously impossible.
5G is also one of the fastest-adopted mobile wireless technologies. By the end of 2020, more than 400 operators across 130+ countries were investing in 5G. As 5G moves from vision to reality, researchers, governments, and industry leaders are now turning their attention to what comes next: 6G.
Although 6G is still years away, with rollouts expected around 2030, it will build on the foundations laid by 5G, aiming to provide further enhancements and address new challenges.
In this course, we will explore the 6G vision, the roadmap for its development, the technologies being considered, and the potential use cases and applications for 6G.
Learning objectives: by the end of the course, participants should be able to explain the fundamentals of 6G technology, identify its key enablers and potential use-cases and applications, understand its societal and economic impacts, and recognize the challenges and opportunities it presents for both technical and non-technical professionals.
Who should enrol: this course is designed for technical as well as non-technical people familiar with 4G/5G mobile technology who are interested in understanding the fundamentals of 6G technology, its potential impact, and future applications.
The following people will benefit by attending this course:
- Business and Technology Leaders
- Government and Regulatory Officials
- Academics and Researchers
- Business Analysts & Consultants
- Investors & Venture Capitalists
- Legal Experts & Advisors
- Technology Enthusiasts and Early Adopters
- Anyone else wishing to learn about 6G technology in general.
Course Leader: Zahid Ghadialy is the Founder, Principal Analyst, and Consultant at 3G4G. His areas of expertise include 6G, 5G, 4G, Open RAN, Private Networks, Small Cells, and other Telecommunications Infrastructure, as well as Wireless Connectivity, IoT, Satellite Connectivity, and more.
Zahid has conducted the "An Advanced Introduction to 5G Technology" training course five times prior to the onset of the coronavirus pandemic for CW. Here is what some of the things the attendees had to say:
“The technical session (part III) in particular was excellent. I would recommend it even to experts in a particular subset of 5G as a comprehensive primer on the entire architecture. good for filling in any 'unknown unknowns'.”
“Zahid gave a very mixed audience a good overview of the current 5G landscape. The content was appropriate and his background knowledge was excellent.”
