The Road to 5G: OECD Perspective
- 1. The Road to 5G Networks Alexia Gonzalez Fanfalone, Economist-Policy Analyst OECD 11 December 2019, Toulouse World Bank & TSE Infra4Dev Conference Infrastructure in the Digital Era: How Should Regulation Adapt?

- 3. The combination of the IoT and AI generates massive amounts of data… Internet of Things Networks Source: Intel, phys.org AI
- 4. … placing new demands on communication infrastructure today and in the future health transport industry Source: Intel
- 5. 5G is the first mobile generation standard conceived for an IoT world • Some 5G characteristics: – Up to 20 Gbps download speed – 10 times lower latency compared to 4G – Higher density of devices connected • Billions of devices will connect through 5G networks and will use/embed AI
- 6. Is 5G revolutionary or evolutionary? • 5G is both, evolutionary as well as revolutionary – Evolutionary because: • Initial stages of deployment: co-existence with 4G • Many technological innovations such as Massive MIMO and Network Slicing are also backward compatible – Revolutionary aspects: • Likely to “kick-in” in after the second phase of the standardisation process of 5G-NR standalone (2020)
- 7. Evolving competition between fixed and wireless The evolution of competition* between services (fixed and mobile) across mobile network generations Note: *Illustrative diagram (i.e. does not exhaustively portray all cases or scenarios). Source: OECD, (2019) “The Road to 5G networks”. 2G •Mobile voice service introduced 3G •Mobile video/multimedia services introduced •Substitution between fixed voice and mobile voice •However, imperfect substitution for streamingservices between fixed and mobile solutions 4G (LTE) •Full mobile broadband •The core of mobile networks becomes IP- based •Mobile broadband service offers with data caps •Imperfect substitution between leadingedge mobile broadband and fixed broadband solutions 5G •Enhanced mobile broadband (with the promise to be 100-200 times fasterthan LTE) •Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) solutions with higherspeeds start to be available: •Will fixed and mobile broadband become substitutes? •New services and applications may still rely on fixed high-speed broadband solutions

- 10. Back to the Basics: facilitating the deployment of 5G networks • Streamlining rights of way to facilitate network densification • Increasing backhaul and backbone connectivity • Promoting efficient spectrum management – Spectrum auctions conducted in OECD countries follow, in general, the principle of technological neutrality • Encouraging new forms of infrastructure sharing • National 5G strategies fostering network deployment 10 OECD countries at full speed on the road to 5G networks
