Samsung announced it is hosting\u00a0the final meeting of the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) working groups to complete the 5G wireless standard.<\/p>\n
The meeting is being held in Busan, South Korea.<\/p>\n
The company said it expects about 1,500 standards experts from chipset, handset, and equipment vendors – including Samsung and Qualcomm.<\/p>\n
It also expects attendees from major mobile operators such as Verizon, AT&T, NTT DoCoMo, KT, and SK Telecom.<\/p>\n
At the meeting, all working groups which develop 5G wireless technology assemble to confirm the final technologies for 5G commercialisation.<\/p>\n
This includes 5G technology providing ultra-high speed data and ultra-low latency, and the conformance testing method for 5G terminals.<\/p>\n
The 3GPP first approved the 5G Non-Standalone standard in December 2017. It uses existing LTE technology as the anchor for connecting to 5G.<\/p>\n
The 5G phase one standard will be officially approved at the 3GPP plenary during June 2018, which will be held in the United States.<\/p>\n
