1. Impact of 5G – 5G will change how we live, work, and interact— 5G Vision centered on diversity – Applications, devices, density / coverage, performance.

— Flexibility – living network that adapts based on context, content, conditions. One size does not fit all.

— Services enabled by low-latency, high-throughput, and mission critical availability. Remote Surgery

Remote Surgery – 5G Use Case

Definition: Surgical tasks are directly performed by a robotic system controlled by the surgeon at the remote site.

5G Use Case - Ultra-Reliable Low-Latency Communication:

– Virtual, real-world interaction – Low-latency within human perception tolerances

– High throughput – Live HD / 3D Video

– Mission critical, ultra-high availability

Benefits:– Access to surgical expertise, even at remote locations

– Faster post-operative recovery with reduced pain and discomfort

– Enhanced surgical dexterity, precision, and visualization


Live Remote Surgery Demo: 4G vs. 5G

• A game developed for MWC to illustrate the importance of low-latency, high data rate, and ultra-reliable communications

• 5G remote surgery data is carried over InterDigital’s EdgeLink™ platform and Crosshaul technology that support the demanding requirements of 5G traffic

• Let’s have some fun!

• Two players compete in an entertaining “game of remote surgery” – one player with a 5G connection and a second player with a 4G connection

Transport Network Evolution


‒ Voice and Limited Data‒ Up to 2 Mbps Cell Capacity

‒ Mobile Broadband‒ 100 Mbps Cell Capacity

“Packetized”All-IP

“Flexible”Advanced-IP

‒ Connected Everything‒ 10+ Gbps Cell Capacity‒ Diverse Traffic Profiles

2G/3G 4G LTE 5G

Connection-oriented

Transport Innovation is driven by a combination of Service and Architecture Requirements

‒ Macro Based‒ Dedicated wired & P2P wireless

‒ Hierarchical with Small Cell Layer being added

‒ Dense Heterogeneous Networks‒ Virtual / Cloud-RAN

• Today’s 4G Cloud-RAN mobile transport network will not scale into 5G to support additional spectrum and antennas

• Separated fronthaul and backhaul management adds complexity and cost

• C-RAN functional splits are fixed and static

• 5G-Crosshaul will support diverse 5G traffic types and support integrated fronthaul and backhaul

• Unified management built on SDN frameworks

• Wireless and wired transport for dense network edge connections, with path diversity for high reliability
