At the Mobile World Congress (MWC) scheduled to take place in Barcelona, ​​Spain from February 26-29, 2024, Samsung is expected to discuss key innovations in 5G technology, with a particular focus on the evolution to 5G-Advanced (5G-A), its combination with artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML), as well as energy-saving techniques.

Samsung is expected to complete its 5G-A technology development with 3GPP Release 18 around March 2024, promising improved performance through higher-order, more compact MIMO antenna arrays than its predecessors.

MIMO-related improvements in UL coverage and capacity will be important for both mobile broadband and fixed wireless access usage scenarios.

Samsung is expected to discuss key innovations in 5G technology, with a particular focus on the evolution to 5G-Advanced (5G-A) at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) scheduled to take place in Barcelona, ​​Spain, from February 26-29, 2024.

Samsung's Vice President of Network Strategy Alok Shah revealed some insights into how 5G-A technology could enable a device upgrade for mobile operators, providing opportunities to integrate open and virtualized radio access network (RAN) technologies.

The information reflects Samsung's achievements in applying 5G technology in 2023, highlighting major cooperation with carriers such as Dish and Verizon (USA).

Samsung's significant support for Dish's 5G rollout, which can now provide service to 70% of the US population, is a significant highlight, even though the telecom operator faces financial challenges throughout 2023.

With Verizon, Samsung has more than 10,000 virtualized RAN (vRAN) sites and their vRAN 3.0 software was recognized by winning the Silverliners cloud-based 5G innovation award.

Samsung's partnerships with Vodafone (UK) and with KDDI (Japan) also show significant progress in 5G technology development.

5G-Advanced is expected to deliver improvements in spectral efficiency and greater energy efficiency. Significant improvements that 5G-Advanced will bring include 5G performance, support for new market segments, resilient networks, and intelligent network automation.
