“The ultimate goal of the unique symbiosis between 5G and edge involves increased performance guarantees, enhanced workload balancing, improved processing capabilities and performance via 5G edge automation and optimization, with greatly reduced human intervention.”
Chris Pearson, President of 5G Americas, said, “Edge computing and AI are a dynamic duo of integral technologies for 5G that will enable a plethora of use cases, which enable 5G networks to reach their full potential. 5G reduces the radio network latency significantly, while edge computing places compute and storage within the telco infrastructure resulting in end-to-end latency reduction. This will positively impact the experience of enterprises and consumers alike.”
“5G Edge Automation and Intelligence” identifies optimization and automation strategies for both 5G network and edge computing, as well as the leveraging of Artificial Intelligence/Machine Learning capabilities. Additionally, the paper covers how 5G network and edge computing enable low latency, high reliable intelligence in edge applications. It provides detailed information on potential use cases for autonomous industrial solutions, smart transport, energy, connected health, digital twins – and more. The white paper includes the technical capabilities of 5G and edge computing, where the intelligence of 5G network and edge computing can achieve groundbreaking results.
The white paper is a comprehensive guide for the exploration of intricate and complex challenges in the implementation of intelligence in 5G edge networks. It provides recommendations on bringing together expertise from multiple backgrounds for the automation and optimization of 5G networks to serve future intelligent service and application demands.
