Roundtable on “5G for Smart Utilities and Smart Cities” in India Smart Utility Week (ISUW) 2021 (March 3, 2021: Webinar)
March 3, 2021 @ 11:00 am - 1:00 pm

TSDSI is proud to announce a Roundtable on “5G for Smart Utilities and Smart Cities” in India Smart Utility Week (ISUW) 2021.
About the Roundtable:
Communication infrastructure, coupled with IoT technologies, is an essential component for making utilities and cities “smart”. ITU’s IMT2020 standards (aka 5G) focus on 3 pillars of new capability – Ultra Reliable Low Latency Communication (URLLC), enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB) and Massive Machine Type Communications (mMTC). The new 5G capabilities are crucial for realizing the full benefits for smart utilities and smart cities.
The ITU Radio communication Sector (ITU-R) has recently published Recommendation ITU-R M.2150 (Detailed specifications of the radio interfaces of IMT-2020). One of the 3 technologies to be approved is 5Gi, developed by Telecommunications Standards Development Society, India (TSDSI), India’s Telecom SDO. Further, the Indian Government has recently adopted TSDSI’s transposed oneM2M standards as national standards for IoT/M2M technologies.
These milestones are significant for implementation of standards-based solutions in various use cases and industry segments.
This session will look at the enablement for smart utilities and smart cities from the arriving 5G technologies and the new standards. It will discuss the 5G features and share experiences from early trials/ deployments.
