“5G Advanced, heralded by 3GPP Release 18 and beyond, marks a pivotal moment in mobile communication, initiating the seamless convergence of digital and physical realms. This transformative era witnesses the convergence of XR, Integrated Sensing and Communication, and the profound influence of AI and ML on networks, sparking innovation and redefining connectivity.” Dr. Christina Chaccour , Network Solutions Manager, Ericsson “3GPP's commitment to evolving telecommunications is evident in its pursuit of more efficient, reliable, and versatile networks. The transition from 5G to 5G-Advanced and beyond signifies a leap in technological advancements, setting new milestones in connectivity and network capabilities. As additional technological advancements are introduced, 6G will be studied with AI/ML as an integral part of the system, designed to boost performance and usability.” Orlett Pearson, Senior Specialist Standardization, Nokia
