Communications Beyond 5G and into the 6G Era
You are invited to the Seventh Annual Brooklyn Summit, which will now be called the “Brooklyn 6G Summit,” to be held virtually on October 18-19, 2021. The annual Brooklyn Summit is one of the most distinguished gatherings that has charted the technical future of the wireless industry since its inaugural event in 2014. It has been a harbinger for what the future holds for communication technologies, applications and services for consumers, enterprises and industry.
In 2021, the two-day summit will be fully virtual, but that will not be the only transformation this landmark event will undergo. In October, we will transition our focus to the rollout and implementation of 5G evolution, and will delve into the emergence of 6G technologies, in keeping with the summit’s goal of initiating the conversation and technical exchanges that will pave the way for the future of global wireless networks. Nokia and the NYU WIRELESS research center at the NYU Tandon School of Engineering are once again co-organizing this invitation-only event, which will bring together leading academics, scientists and engineers working in 5G-evolution and 6G-related fields.
The Summit’s theme in 2021 will be “Communications Beyond 5G and into the 6G Era,” and we shall examine the status of 5G-evolution and the 6G initiatives across the globe. The event will highlight the latest innovations in all 5G domains as well as key technologies and the creative minds behind them that will define the 6G era.
Experts from around the globe will explore promising use cases and the enabling technologies for 5G and 6G. In addition to presentations from leading technical experts and lively panel discussions, there will be virtual exhibits featuring demonstrations of the most cutting-edge 5G and 6G technologies, products, and prototypes. With 5G rolling out across the globe, the future and scope of 6G is still being debated and shaped. You don't want to miss this one-of-a-kind event, nor the opportunity to experience the vision for 5G evolution and 6G in the decade ahead. A formal invitation will be sent in August with the registration link.

In comments filed with the Federal Communications Commission and members of Congress today, the researcher credited with proving to the wireless communications world that millimeter wave communications should become the backbone for 5G cellular cast his support for a proposed FCC ham radio rule, predicting it would open exciting opportunities for growth in amateur radio and encourage youngsters to listen and thereby learn about electronics and communications.

The Federal Communications Commission adopted new rules to encourage the development of new communications technologies and expedite the deployment of new services in the spectrum above 95 GHz. This spectrum has long been considered the outermost horizon of the usable spectrum range, but rapid advancements in radio technology have made these bands especially ripe for new development.

Yes, it sounds crazy -- and yes, we're still at the very early stages of 5G -- but it is officially
time to start talking about 6G.
Don't panic just yet though: Some of the top experts in the industry agree that 6G is still more of a
concept than a concrete idea, and no real products are expected for at least a decade or so.

A comprehensive list of awards given to Institute Professor of Electrical and Computer Engineering Elza Erkip would be a very lengthy document. Early on, Erkip, the junior past president of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Information Theory Society, was selected by the National Science Foundation (NSF) as one of the country’s most promising young researchers, garnering its prestigious CAREER Award, and she counts among her more recent laurels membership in the inaugural class of the Science Academy Society of Turkey (an organization that promotes scientific merit, freedom and integrity) and inclusion on the Clarivate list of the most highly cited researchers multiple times.

Nokia is collaborating with NTT DoCoMo to demonstrate 5G New Radio (5G NR) enhancements at 90 GHz
during the Brooklyn 5G Summit this week.
The duo will apply a Nokia Bell Labs-developed compact millimeter wave phased-array antenna system
scalable up to 256-elements using an RFIC solution to enable multi-gigabit per second speeds. The test
will demonstrate how using 5G NR enhancements at higher mmWave frequency bands can manage radio
complexity and a larger number of antenna beams while enabling greater bandwidth.

The excitement around 5G is palpable at the Brooklyn 5G Summit this week, and for good reason. Once
the province of academic engineers, there is increasingly a consensus emerging among technology
leaders that millimeter-wave technology is ready for prime time.
Yet there remain large barriers to a successful rollout, particularly at the local government level.
Those challenges could prevent the U.S. from aggressively competing with other nations like China,
which are investing massive resources to lead this next generation of wireless technology.

At the Brooklyn 5G Summit this week, a panel of leading researchers in 5G phased-array technology
discussed its commercial status. The key question: Had phased arrays moved largely away from an
academic pursuit to become an industrial concern?
Phased-array antennas, in which radio waves can be steered electronically in a desired direction, have
become a key technology for 5G networks. The rapid development of this technology over the last five
to 10 years appears to be one of the primary reasons why 5G is still on track for commercial rollout
by 2020.

Karri Kuoppamaki began his talk on Wednesday at the Brooklyn 5G Summit by discussing T-Mobile’s LTE
network, an apparent anachronism. Or, as he put it, “Why am I talking about LTE? This isn’t the
Brooklyn LTE Summit.”
But Kouppamaki, the Vice President of Radio Network Technology Development and Strategy for T-Mobile,
had a good reason to spend the first portion of his talk discussing the current generation of wireless
tech: Despite the radical departures 5G promises for network infrastructure and data rates, it will
still be built on existing networks.

The fifth annual Brooklyn 5G Summit took place on April 25 and 26 at the NYU Tandon School of Engineering. Those of us not able to attend in person could watch it all through IEEEtv. The two days of presentations and panels highlighted 5G's many aspects that included the technology — 5G New Radio (5GNR) to millimeter-wave (mmWave) — to the business use cases needed to make 5G a success.
