5G Technology World
Visitors to ITU Telecom World 2019 in Budapest heard about the promising steps and promising results. However, no one is fooled by the illusion: you will have to wait a few more years to reap the full potential of 5G technology.
For four full days, the forum was hosted by six experts from around the world at six venues in parallel. The conference focused on connectivity and 5G. A hot topic is the self-driving car. The unanimous conclusion of the speeches is that only standardization can avoid total chaos.
Self-driving cars need a standard (also) A two-day workshop focused on self-driving cars. It turned out in black and white that there were many developments with different technologies. There is a consensus that sooner or later there will be a single implementation minimum, a standard, according to the stakeholders, a Global Performance Standard. Failure to do so will result in total confusion. Some have said that the technology of a self-driving car will need to be licensed in the same way as drivers today.

- The importance of network security in the broader sense has emerged in all areas of the conference. This approach has permeated the whole forum. This is great news, because if there are security holes in the network or if you try to incorporate security features into your systems later, it can cause a lot of trouble. In the world of infocommunication, it is advisable to carry out standardization so that security features are already present in the systems. The ITU has recognized this threat and has taken the first steps towards a solution, says István Bartolits, Head of Technology Analysis at NMHH.
Internet everywhere, for everyone
Although most people in Europe and America have access to the Internet for granted, 3.8 billion people in the world still do not have access to the World Wide Web. Especially in emergencies and environmental strikes, a high-speed, stable connection is essential, which can best be achieved wirelessly.

An obvious and relatively quick way to remedy the global problem is to extend satellite communication; its main proponents are, of course, African countries. The forum discussed, among other things, the SpaceX Starlink project (12,000 satellites) or the Amazon Kuiper project (3,236 satellites). The widespread support for the topic is signaled by the signing of the so-called Crisis Connectivity Chart by the ITU during the conference. The document sets out the basic elements of the use of satellite communications in disaster situations for humanitarian purposes.
Here's 5G! Where is 5G?
There were a lot of interesting things about 5G at the conference, but there was also a lot of discussion. - There is a broad consensus that the realization of true full 5G (not the current up-and-coming 4G network-based start-up systems), ie broadband, multiple endpoints and its super-reliable management, and extremely low-latency transmission . What is most debated is when will this huge investment ever be recouped, or at all. Despite these doubts, it seems that in the long run, 5G will be the foundation of everything, but the exclusivity of the mobile network is far from certain. It is assumed that a carrier network - a network of networks - will be built on which many things will be built on, including wired endpoints.

It was clear from the forum presentations that vertical applications in the 5G world will have a real future. Many people are confident that when many industrial applications (like agriculture) or more and more self-driving cars are built on 5G, the return on a huge investment can begin. Until then, it is rather uncertain whether viable business models can be developed.
No go without robust opticsThe conference was completely agreed on two things about 5G. One is that access requires a sufficient amount of frequency spectrum. This year's World Radio Conference (November 2019) can make progress in this area. There is no difference in opinion between the stakeholders that the 5G system requires a very robust optical network and very robust control.
- There is less talk of this, though this is one of the key issues. It's all based on an optical network, with 5G built into it. An extensive optical network is one of the key elements of a huge investment - points out István Bartolits.
Interestingly, the broadcasting industry also manifested itself in this issue. The European Broadcasting Union (EBU) has indicated that it is looking forward to 5G as the range of broadcasting frequencies is getting narrower, so broadcasters have to look for other solutions. For the media, fiber optic broadband is the way out.
Self-driving cars need a standard (also) A two-day workshop focused on self-driving cars. It turned out in black and white that there were many developments with different technologies. There is a consensus that sooner or later there will be a single implementation minimum, a standard, according to the stakeholders, a Global Performance Standard. Failure to do so will result in total confusion. Some have said that the technology of a self-driving car will need to be licensed in the same way as drivers today.
So a joint thinking was started, which, according to István Bartolits, is an outstanding result. Maybe the first steps were taken in time.
EXHIBITION TEMPERATURE
BMEThe departments of the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Informatics of the Budapest University of Technology and Economics participated in the ITU Telecom World 2019 exhibition with six demos. During the presentation of the Department of Automation and Applied Informatics (AUT), a 120 centimeter car model was used to test the remote presence and driving experience. The driver's steering wheel and pedals allowed him to control the vehicle remotely, and the presence of a virtual reality helmet was used to view the in-car image in real time. The camera followed the driver's head movement without any noticeable delay, ensuring a car-like experience. The demo's message: Real-time, high-bandwidth, low-latency data can be implemented over a 5G network (just like the Wi-Fi network at the exhibition). Also, the capabilities of 5G network technology, as well as the combination of tactile and visual experience, were presented by AUT's virtual magic cube. Two players hold one colorless cube, which allows them to jointly unleash a (colored) magic cube in virtual space. The virtual cube tracks players' hand gestures in real-time and provides assistance when needed.
The Department of Electronics Technology represented itself at the exhibition with biodegradable circuits. The Department of Broadband Communications and Electrical Engineering has exhibited a mock-up of its SMOG-1 student satellite. The live satellite is expected to be launched this fall. The Department of Networked Systems and Services (HIT) has introduced a radio direction indicator capable of detecting an approaching drone that may not be visible to the eye. HIT has also issued a quantum communication system, one of the most important features of which is that the third party listening to communications, due to the laws of quantum physics, can never go unnoticed.
Ericsson - Magyar TelekomIntroduces 5G technology and its applications in a 5G test network built from commercially available 5G service equipment. Ericsson Hungary and Telekom. At the booth, visitors could see the elements of Ericsson's 5G radio infrastructure. Industry Connenct was introduced, among others. The small private 5G network fits in a 1 cubic meter cubicle so it's easy to install anywhere. The demonstration illustrated how the 5G network can help the work of an ambulance.
