Mercedes Fern ndez (Telef nica) takes stock of the implementation of 5G in Spain Un a o m s, el 5G Forum Virtual ha recibido a Mercedes Fern ndez, gerente de innovaci n de Telephone. En el encuentro virtual, se han detallado los principales hitos de la teleoperadora en la implantaci n de 5G de primera generaci n en Espa a. Ha sido un a o muy intenso , confiesa Mercedes. Desde que en septiembre de 2020 Telef nica iniciara la comercializaci n de la red 5G en Espa a, la demanda se ha multiplicado. No solo hablamos de usuarios que se han interesado en sus beneficios, sino tambi n de sectores como la industria 4.0 o el universo media: Los clientes han pasado a transmitirnos qu quieren del 5G para hacer las cosas de forma diferente y crear nuevas experiencias .
Entre estos casos de xito, Manuela ha enumerado aplicaciones como la utilizaci n de drones 5G para la inspecci n de v as por parte de ADIF; las intervenciones quir rgicas con asistencia en tiempo real, firmadas por Quir n Salud; o la transformaci n de procesos productivos y transformaci n digital con t cnicas de AR y VR llevada a cabo por Navantia.
Pilotos en marcha M s all de casos de uso reales que ya han sido puestos en funcionamiento, Mercedes remarca que Telef nica cuenta con m s de 70 pilotos activos en los mbitos de la industria 4.0, e-health, educaci n, turismo o media y televisi n, un ltimo ep grafe que se beneficia del gran ancho de banda de subida de 5G .
Gran parte de estos proyectos han sido impulsados por la segunda convocatoria de red.es. La gerente de innovaci n cita los m s destacados: uso de drones (Correos), el control de drones (Ericsson), optimizaci n del centros log sticos (El Corte Ingl s), proyectos de rehabilitaci n de enfermos de esclerosis m ltiple con gamificaci n y realidad virtual (Hospital de la Princesa) o network slicing (Meli ).
Otros casos de uso que ya est n en marcha giran en torno a nuevas formas de educaci n, apoyadas en la realidad virtual; la remote production profesional, para que reporteros puedan conectar sus c maras v a 5G y hacer directos; la trasmisi n de eventos deportivos en 360, tal y como se prob en la Copa del Rey de Baloncesto de este a o; la telepresencia hologr fica, la cual har presencia en breve en el centro de demostraciones de Telef nica; o la traducci n simult nea, apoyada por nuevos desarrollos de inteligencia artificial y reforzada por la baja latencia que brinda el 5G.
Hacia el 5G de 2 generaci n A d a de hoy, el 5G de Telef nica da cobertura al 80% de la poblaci n. Es un despliegue de primera generaci n apalancado en la red 4G de Telef nica y desplegado en la banda de 3.5 GHz, apoyado a su vez en la 2.1 GHz con extensi n dynamic spectrum. Sin embargo, este es solo el principio: Ahora los operadores nos enfrentaremos al reto del 5G standalone, de segunda generaci n . Es el 5G definitivo, porque habr que cambiar el core, tendremos que dirigirnos a la virtualizaci n y con l se conseguir el network slicing para generar carriles con diferentes capacidades. Ser cuando llegue la prometida latencia de 1.5 ms y se consolidar el internet de las cosas , concreta Mercedes.
Para conseguir todas estas metas, apunta la gerente de innovaci n, hay que superar numerosos retos: En la actualidad, solo se dispone de una de las tres bandas de frecuencia. Falta su licitaci n, as como la reordenaci n del 3.5 GHz . Mercedes tambi n fija su atenci n en el desarrollo de terminales 5G como routers industriales o m dulos de comunicaci n en los coches , que va poco a poco ; y la exploraci n de modelos de negocio, ya que los operadores tenemos que hacer un gran esfuerzo inversor para que el despliegue llegue a todo el pa s .
the 5G Forum Virtual 2021 se celebra los d as 4, 5 y 6 de mayo organizado por Medina Media Events. Con Panorama Audiovisual como media partner, es el principal evento sobre tecnolog a 5G en Espa a. En este encuentro participan compa as como Telephone, Indra, Cellnex, Hispasat, Nokia, Rohde & Schwarz, Vodafone, Huawei, RTVE, UHD Spain, culm, Qualcomm, Omdia, Orange, Mavenir, ZTE, Ericsson, Axion or the 5G National Observatory. La iniciativa est impulsada por Mobile World Capital, el Ministry of Economic Affairs and Digital Transformation, Red.es and the Junta de Andaluc a, sponsors del evento.
