As World Rolls Out First Generation of 5G Technology, InterDigital Keeps Mobile World Congress Focus on the Future
February 25 2019 - 1:30AM
MOBILE WORLD CONGRESS 2019 – The first 5G devices
may be rolling out this year, but InterDigital (NASDAQ: IDCC) has
been demonstrating working 5G platforms and prototype systems since
2013. This year, the company continues its long track record of
demonstrating working systems far ahead of market rollout, with a
suite of edge connectivity and computing solutions and immersive
experiences that lift the curtain on future generations of content.
“This year, we’ll see the first deployments of 5G technologies
that have been cooking in research and standardization for the past
decade, and that we’ve made tremendous contributions to. But the
first generation of 5G will be about tentative steps in devices and
other services, which are essentially a next step to the evolution
we’ve seen since the start of wireless. At InterDigital, our work
has moved on to the major transformations that will characterize
future generations of 5G and beyond, as well as the content
transformations that will break the flat plane of video and move
into immersive experiences,” said Henry Tirri, Chief Technology
Officer.
In addition to showcasing groundbreaking demonstrations around
Edge Computing, 5G Testbeds, 5G Standards and Beyond and Immersive
Video and Video Standards, the InterDigital booth (Hall 7, Booth
7C61) will host a daily CREATORS AT MWC19 panel series, featuring
some of the industry’s brightest thought leaders and
technologists. Representatives from China Mobile, the

Network2030, Nokia, Samsung, US PAWR, Technicolor, Telenor, 5G
Vinni, 5G Smart Tourism, 5TONIC and others will participate and
