As the wireless telecom industry reaches the mid-point of 5G's life cycle, network operators around the world are setting the stage for 6G. They are doing so by building a bridge of new features and enhancements with 5G-Advanced that are creating more open, interoperable and intelligent 5G networks. This bridge already sits on a solid foundation of 5G customers that have soared to 2.25 billion global 5G connections—growing nearly four times faster than 4G. In North America alone, 5G connections reached 205 million, making up 29% of all wireless connections.


The growing openness of 5G-Advanced networks is baked right into the 3GPP (Third Generation Partnership Project) specifications. In addition to enhanced mobile broadband speeds, improved latency and reliability, and better management of energy spend for sustainability, 5G networks are opening their doors to greater access to non-terrestrial networks, new models of interaction with different equipment vendors in the RAN, and more accessibility for software development with programmable networks in the API ecosystem.


This greater openness is leading to wireless telecom networks that are more intelligent, not only with AI/ML optimized architecture, but with operations that support will support the bevy of new generative AI applications that meet the demands of next generation network security in the age of AI and quantum computing.


Just as the industry is preparing itself for the new age of 5G-Advanced and 6G, 5G Americas is also re-focusing its efforts around highlighting the technology advances our industry is bringing to the table, specifically focusing on North American market where opportunities and challenges. We are laser focused on efforts to develop a long-term spectrum pipeline that is necessary to provide connectivity for the new ecosystem of 5G participants, such as satellite broadband, MVNO, IoT, and AI service providers.


For over 23 years, we've catalogued and charted the progress of wireless telecom. We look forward to many more years of providing you with quality white papers, influencer conversations, and stakeholder education on the real-world impact of cellular innovation.
