The 5G will open a new frontier for the audiovisual contribution both as in distribution El 5G promete abrir nuevas oportunidades, con servicios y contenidos a muy alta velocidad, lo que agilizar los servicios de contribuci n en televisi n y el consumo de v deo a escala global.
BIT Experience 2017, las jornadas que re nen hoy y ma ana a cientos de profesionales del audiovisual, digital y multimedia en Feria de Madrid, ha invitado a participar en una mesa redonda a varios expertos para debatir sobre el impacto que el desarrollo de las redes 5G tendr en el sector.
Shuaib Siddiqui, Senior Researcher (Area Manager Software Networks) en la Fundaci n i2CAT, ha sido el encargado de introducir un panel en el que han participado Pere Vila y Adolfo Mu oz Berr n, por parte de Televisi n Espa ola; Francisco Javier Marcos, en representaci n de Cellnex; y Carlos Laborda, director general de Aicox.
A new frontier is present in the world of television, production and digital media. The 5G promises to open new opportunities, services and content at very high speed, which will increase the consumption of video at a global scale, with greater inclusion of users and citizens.
Por parte de Televisi n Espa ola, la Corporaci n tiene previsto, por el momento, poner a prueba el 5G en la contribuci n en informativos. Hasta ahora pr cticamente se invierte una hora hasta que el material est listo para emisi n. Sin embargo, con la llegada del 5G este proceso apenas se demorar a cinco minutos, ha asegurado Pere Vila.
El 5G permitir a un broadcaster como TVE, seg n Vila, estar siempre conectados, compartir contenido instant neamente, editar en el cloud, publicar inmediatamente, entrar en directo si fuera preciso e incorporar herramientas de coordinaci n y retorno as como metadatos e indexaci n autom tica.
Carlos Laborda ha subrayado que en redes 5G se conseguir n latencias de apenas un milisegundo con un tr fico de datos que se multiplicar por exponencialmente.
Francisco Javier Marcos, en representaci n del operador transversal de infraestructuras de telecomunicaciones Cellnex, ha destacado que para el despliegue del 5G ser necesario el despliegue de celdas peque as de emisi n en las ciudades. Este necesitar aunar esfuerzos para que contar con una red neutral operada por un operador de red que brinde servicios a terceros.
Proyectos 5G Media y 5G City
A lo largo de esta mesa redonda se han presentado los proyectos 5G Media y 5G City que est n desarrollando actividades innovaci n temprana centradas en el sector audiovisual, explorando la utilizaci n de las redes 5G mediante aplicaciones avanzadas que permitan aprovechar los beneficios prometidos.
No en vano, las aplicaciones multimedia est n entre los servicios m s exigentes y requieren enormes cantidades de capacidad de red para la distribuci n masiva de contenidos audiovisuales con alto ancho de banda, as como latencia extremadamente baja para que la experiencia de usuario sea verdaderamente inmersiva, receptiva y t ctil. Asimismo, existe inter s por estudiar aplicaciones vinculadas directamente con producci n, en particular las relativas a transporte de se al y contribuci n para informativos.
Una docena de socios europeos est n llevando a cabo el proyecto europeo 5G Media centrado en las posibilidades de interacci n entre el sector audiovisual y las futuras redes 5G con el objetivo de intentar obtener beneficios reales mutuos. Entre las entidades del consorcio se encuentran Radio Televisi n Espa ola, Telef nica I+D, la Universidad Polit cnica de Madrid, el University College of London o IBM Israel.
The project has been funded thanks to the high rating obtained in their evaluation by the European Commission (14.5 points out of 15 total), which demonstrates the high level of the same and certifies excellence in all aspects evaluated.
So far, the approach that has been given to research in 5G has focused on all that which is necessary for the evolution of networking technologies (availability of spectrum, radio access, SDN, NFV and cloud infrastructure, flexible infrastructure or both systems development and operations control), but has been given less attention to the services and applications that use the advanced capabilities of the 5G network such as requiring the audiovisual sector.
En este sentido, 5G Media pretende llevar a cabo actividades de innovaci n temprana centradas en el sector audiovisual, explorando la utilizaci n de las redes 5G mediante aplicaciones avanzadas que permitan aprovechar los beneficios prometidos con respecto a bajas latencias, elevados anchos de banda o configuraciones flexibles y din micas. No en vano, las aplicaciones multimedia est n entre los servicios m s exigentes y requieren enormes cantidades de capacidad de red para la distribuci n masiva de contenidos audiovisuales con alto ancho de banda, as como latencia extremadamente baja para que la experiencia de usuario sea verdaderamente inmersiva, receptiva y t ctil.
En cuanto al 5G City, se trata de un proyecto europeo en el que participan una veintena de agentes entre los que destacan Fundaci n i2CAT, Cellnex, NEC Europe, la Universidad de Bristol, Italtel, MOG Technologies, RAI o Comunicare Digitale.
Uno de los puntos fuertes del proyecto es estudiar la posibilidad de cambiar el modelo de red en el despliegue del 5G pasando de la situaci n actual donde cada operador tiene sus peque as antenas distribuidas por la ciudad, a nuevo esquema m s eficiente y econ mico basado en una red neutral de antenas.
As 5G City pretende construir y desplegar una plataforma com n, multiarrendatario que ampl e un modelo de nube centralizado a la ventaja extrema de la red, con demostraciones previstas en Barcelona, Bristol y Lucca. El proyecto que se ha iniciado este verano, cuenta con un presupuesto de 7,8 millones de euros, y prolongar sus trabajos durante 30 meses.
