The Future Of 5G

Dr. Ahmadreza (Reza) Rofougaran, Co-CEO, CTO, Founder & Board Member at Movandi Corporation developing 5G wireless network systems based in the United States participates in Risk Roundup to discuss the Future of 5G.

The Future of 5G

The fiber optic technology is on its way to revolutionizing telecommunications. While it proves to be a more efficient means of transmitting both data and voice, the fifth-generation wireless networks of mobile internet connectivity that offers faster speed and much more reliable connections to mobile devices are also here.

5G networks are expected to help power a massive rise in mobility and the internet of things technology infrastructure. As 5G networks provide the infrastructure needed to carry vast amounts of digital data, allowing for a smarter and more connected world, the debate is emerging about the future of the 5G network, and its risks and rewards.

It seems fiber optics revolutionized communication technology by allowing the transmission of higher data capacities on considerably longer distances, with less interference than the traditional copper technologies that we had across nations. Amidst the parallel revolution and evolution in fiber communication technology, it is necessary to understand how is 5G revolutionizing the transmission of digital data and voice. It is important to understand and evaluate:

• Where is the evolution of wireless networks taking us?
• What will be the relationship between fiber wireline networks and wireless 5G in the coming years?
• Will 5G be sufficient for the needs of the emerging technologies?
• Will the future wireless network needs to be met by solving only the bandwidth and speed requirements?
• What is the network architecture in 5G? Is there any change in the network core from 4G?
• How secured is 5G network?
• Who is developing the standards for 5G security?
• What is the future of 5G?

The time is now to understand the Future of 5G.

About the Guest

Dr. Ahmadreza (Reza) Rofougaran is a leading pioneer, engineering executive, inventor, and entrepreneur in the wireless communications industry. Dr. Reza has pioneered research in RF CMOS technology and led the integration of the RF radio with digital processors to enable short-range wireless connectivity, Bluetooth, and short-range wireless network, Wi-Fi, and millimeter RF. In 1998, he founded Innovent Systems Inc where he pioneered the research in RF CMOS, RF radio, and digital processing to enable short-range wireless connectivity, which then led to Broadcom’s purchase and merger of Innovent in 2000. At Broadcom In 2005, he integrated multiple wireless systems into single-chip CMOS, enabling smartphones and mobiles devices with Wi-Fi in harmony with Bluetooth and other wireless networks. This had a significant impact on mobile devices, and over 90% of today’s internet traffic and daily wireless connections are through these integrated chips. In 2006, Dr. Reza became a Broadcom fellow for his contribution to RF CMOS and radio technology that was essential in building the wireless business at Broadcom that shipped more than 1.5 billion radios per year. In 2010, Dr. Reza became an IEEE Fellow for his contribution to the integration of RF radios into single-chip CMOS technology. In 2016, he founded Movandi Corporation to develop 5G wireless network systems. In 2018, he received IEEE Industrial Pioneer Award, for research in RF CMOS. A leading role followed this in the industrialization of single-chip CMOS radio-on-chip that is enabling today’s smartphones. He was also recognized by UCLA as a pioneering figure in the wireless communications industry and a prolific inventor, awarded the UCLA 2018 Alumnus of the Year. With more than 854 issued patents, Dr. Reza is one of the top patent holders in the world, appearing in 77 publications and receiving 20 international awards. Dr. Ahmadreza (Reza) Rofougaran received his BS in 1986, MS in 1988, Ph.D. in 1998 from UCLA.
