6 Broadband Internet connectivity widely available Need for strong limit on energy dissipation and CO 2 footprint per capita More context-related information (e.g. augmented reality). Increased extent of remote virtual collaboration Increasing average age and higher importance of health care Need for more efficient and safer transportation means Personal data stored in the cloud and transmitted over wireless channels Internet of things Source: Nokia Solutions and Networks.

7 5G Networks October ,000 times more mobile network capacity than today 7 trillion wireless devices serving over 7 billion people 10 times more user-access capacity than today Energy saving: 1/10 energy consumption ratio than today Reducing the average service creation time cycle from 90 hours to 90 minutes 5 times reduced End-to-End latency Ubiquitous 5G access including in low density areas

8 5G Networks October Completely new concept in Network Control: Deconstructing the Network Fixed-Mobile convergence, AND, integration with business processes Network Virtualization as a key foundation Converged fronthaul and backhaul New air interface, combining high-capacity access and very low-cost for very low traffic terminals Integrated live-broadcast SIM-less access

14 14 The European Commission with top companies and research institutions has launched the 5G PPP The 5G PPP is fostered, from the private side by the 5G Infrastructure Association: Europe-wide research effort to deliver the required technology: 7 year research plan in three stages 700 M funded by the European Commission 3,500 to 7,000 M funded by top EU industries

15 15 5G networks constitute an unprecedented technology revolution World competition among top-technology regions to arrive first! European effort between public and private institutions to be the winners Carefully drafted and well funded long term research plan
