Reducing total cost of ownership (TCO) as a key design requirement for 6G.
The jump to a new generation of wireless technology typically comes with the fanfare of the game-changing innovations it will enable, but with 6G, one of the biggest disruptions could be how much...
As we reach the midpoint of the 10-year cycle following the commercial launch of 5G in 2018/19, attention is increasingly shifting towards 6G.What lessons from 5G can be applied or avoided for 6G? Will this next generation of cellular help the industry finally deliver...
While there may be many ways to launch a 6G network, the 5G experience suggests that picking the fastest route may not be the most prudent choice in the long run.
Welcome to the second installment of 6G Foundry, where we dive deeper into the...
Qualcomm is leading the innovation pipeline for 5G Advanced and beyond
For decades, Qualcomm has been at the forefront of spearheading pivotal wireless innovations. With 5G, we pioneered key inventions that were adopted into the first three standard releases (i.e., Release 15, Release 16, Release 17). And now,...
The aftermath of WRC-23 and NTIA’s National Spectrum Strategy
As the curtains closed on the World Radiocommunication Conference 2023 (WRC-23) in Dubai this past December, the airwaves buzzed with more than radio frequencies. This year’s conference marked a significant step in the evolution of global communications, setting...
The semiconductor industry faces the challenge of creating components that can generate high output power at exceptionally high frequencies. The growing demand for increased bandwidth adds another layer of complexity. Power amplifiers, typically in the form of monolithic microwave integrated circuits (MMIC), are crucial...

RedCap targets IoT services requiring higher data rates with a reduction of UE complexity and leverages power saving, while allowing for smaller form factors of the IoT device. This white paper presents the RedCap technology extension of the 5G system on user equipment and...
This white paper describes the lifecycle of a modern mobile device, including identification of target requirements and goals, real-estate planning of components, design, prototype development, testing of the device at various stages and commercial launch. Details of smartphone human and machine interface and internal...
Electronic devices are pushing the frequency spectrum higher, necessitating new coaxial connectors to handle the higher frequencies with waveguides often used at the millimeter end of the spectrum. Our new poster summarizes the many size variations required to cover the bands up to 1.7...
Sub-terahertz and terahertz (THz) waves, ranging from 0.1 THz to 10 THz, fall in the spectral region between microwave and optical waves. The prospect of enabling transfer rates in the terabit/sec range make them a key research area of 6G mobile communication. Sub-THz technologies require...
Artificial intelligence (AI) in the form of machine learning (ML) accompanies the user of a state-of-the-art wireless device daily. It has achieved tremendous success in image identification, video recognition and natural language processing, to name just a few examples. However, for the next generation...
