Set for another memorable gathering in December 2024, get ready to capture, connect and collaborate with global industry leaders within the conference halls and demo area of the 18^th Telecom Review Leaders' Summit.

Amidst the remarkable endeavor of constructing and launching satellites, a critical challenge has emerged: satellite monitoring. Ground stations (GSs) stand sentinel, ready to tackle this task, serving as vital conduits for communication with satellites. Positioned strategically, these stations bridge the gap between the terrestrial realm and the devices orbiting Earth several kilometers above, ensuring uninterrupted communication.

In today’s interconnected world, seamless data transmission is essential for communication, navigation, emergency response, research, and commercial operations. This necessity extends beyond mere overland structures, culminating beneath the ocean’s surface.

A staggering 5.44 billion, or 67.1%, of the global population has embraced internet usage via mobile phones, as revealed in a recent study by Statista, highlighting significant connectivity progress through 5G-Advanced (5G-A) while underscoring persistent digital disparities.

Cloud environments can be likened to high-tech fortresses, each housing valuable treasures in multiple rooms with restricted access areas. Within this digital stronghold, employees assume distinct roles, mirroring their counterparts in a physical fortress, and are granted specific access permissions based on their job responsibilities.

Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) is becoming increasingly popular as a 5G application for communication service providers (CSPs) worldwide. Industry findings show a significant rise in the number of CSPs offering this service over the past year.

Cars are transforming from mere machines bolstered by horsepower into sophisticated, tech-savvy mobile devices; and as automotive technology advances, vehicles are evolving into connected, software-driven machines, mirroring the rise of smartphones over the past decade.

Moderated by the GSMA, regulators and operators from the Middle East, North Africa, and Central Asia gathered at a roundtable during MWC Shanghai 2024 to discuss the ‘Middle East and Central Asia ICT Policy and Governance Forum.’ Senior officials from Huawei and the China Academy of Information and Communications Technology (CAICT) discussed industry policies, best practices, and key industry trends.
