The first set of complete technical specifications and solutions towards well-publicized 5G vision, aka IMT-2020 proposal, is due to be presented to ITU in WRC, October 2019. The recent shift of focus from research and development to deployment and commercialization of 5G systems concurrently unveils the “what comes next?” question embodied in an overarching bey…
The nature of video experiences is changing, and technology is opening new dimensions. This panel will focus on the potential of Augmented Video for Immersive experiences as used in Light Field and videogrammetry capture setup and displayed in Virtual and Augmented Reality devices. Discussion will evolve around capture and editing specifications and use cases as…
Gaël Seydoux, Research & Innovation Director at Technicolor, discusses Volumetric Technology live from the InterDigital booth at MWC19 in Barcelona.
See how InterDigital’s Service-based Architecture (SBA) platform is currently being deployed and evaluated in Bristol and Barcelona in multi-partner initiatives such as the Horizon2020 FLAME and the UK-funded Smart Tourism projects. The demo will show performance benefits across the network through Layer 2 multicast, as well as the terminal. These benefits inclu…
Join Ravikumar Pragada, Senior Principal Engineer at InterDigital, as he discusses what’s happening in 5G Standards, and what's coming next for Beyond 5G technology.
Don Tian, Senior Principal Engineer at InterDigital, discusses the importance of video standards as it relates to 5G live from the InterDigital booth at MWC19 in Barcelona.
Many 5G trials are currently undertaken in preparation for the rollout and start of 5G throughout 2019 with a focus on showcasing the higher speeds that 5G originally promised. But the wider industry is also looking beyond those promises towards verticals such as media broadcast, transportation, rural rollouts and others but also preparing towards future beyond …
Join Alan Carlton, VP InterDigital Labs, as he discusses Edge Computing at MWC19.
Open source is reshaping technology adoption and is a critical driver for the transformation taking place in many industries. The emergence of SDN and NFV has fueled the growth of cloud-based services, and now with the convergence of information technology (IT) and communication technology (CT) the telecommunication industry is changing as well. Widespread adopt…
Volumetric content is the future generation of video that is generated by a set of multiple cameras, a Light Field Acquisition system. Join Arno Schubert, Project Manager at Technicolor Research and Innovation for a demonstration on image acquisition with a multi camera set-up, calculating a volumetric portrait that will be rendered on any smartphone for an imme…
This demonstration hosted by Robert Gazda, Senior Director of Engineering at InterDigital, highlights the benefits of Edge Computing combined with 5G Ultra Reliable Low Latency Communications (URLLC) – to realize a Mission Critical Automation application vertical. See how drones operate and interact autonomously in a dense urban environment, navigating obstructe…
This demonstration hosted by Charles Turyagyenda, Staff Engineer at InterDigital, highlights the benefits of micro-services based distributed computing at the extreme edge of the 5G network. Experience E2E 360 video streaming deployed cost-efficiently across three tiers of computing nodes (low, medium and high end) all under unified orchestration and control. Th…
This simulation from InterDigital showed how an edge platform might be used to take telemetry from drones and use it to control the flight paths of drones in real time, to avoid collisions. It’s important, obviously, that drones are in coverage the whole time, so radio resources can be programmed in as part of flight path info. The next step, InterDigital says, …
This joint demo of InterDigital Inc. and Technicolor Research & Innovation hosted by Jun Han, Principal Engineer at InterDigital, will showcase 360° video streaming from 13 pre-recorded camera views, each with 2kx2k color and depth, stored in HEVC video format in an MPEG-DASH server. Based on viewer position and orientation, seven camera views are adaptively str…

The edge computing and virtualization fever does not seem to be showing any signs of abatement. There seems to be quite some promise to take it further deep into the network architecture by leveraging the computing capability emerging in several new customer premise equipment (CPE) and user equipment (UE) such as vehicles, robots, and drones. Yet the challenges …
Join Fred Schreider, Senior Director of Engineering at InterDigital as he discusses how mmWave is a continuing part of the 5G evolution, from testbeds to new standards initiatives. Take a remote look at live demonstrations from our labs in New York, which showcase our 28GHz NR development platform with beam management between UE and gNB. Get a firsthand view of …
