Symposium on the Development of Frequency Resources 2021

The Association of Radio Industries and Businesses (ARIB) and the National Institute of Information and Communications Technology (NICT) will co-organize the Symposium on the Development of Frequency Resources 2021, under the theme of “Looking into the future ICT through Local (Rural) 5G and Beyond 5G / 6G” on July 9 at Meiji Kinenkan and on Zoom webinar.

As the 5th generation mobile communications system (5G) has been launched, expectations are growing for a local (rural) 5G service that will provide a self-employed 5G service that meets the communications requirements for specific areas and applications. In addition, technical studies and discussions have been initiated worldwide on next-generation mobile communications systems, known as “Beyond 5G” or “6G” for the wireless infrastructure that will support Society 5.0 in the future.

The symposium will focus on those wireless communication technologies that will lead to new forms of using frequencies. Experts from industry, academia, and government will give lectures on policies and the R&D, the standardization and expected use cases of the technologies. We look forward to your participation.
