18. Ever-Present Intelligent 6G Communications (With Magnus Frodigh)

Many individuals are speculating about 6G, but in this episode, you will hear the joint vision of 700+ researchers at Ericsson. Erik G. Larsson and Emil Björnson are visited by Magnus Frodigh, Vice-President and Head of Ericsson Research. His team has recently published the white paper “Ever-present intelligent communication: A research outlook towards 6G”. The conversation covers emerging applications, new requirements, and research challenges that might define the 6G era. How can we achieve limitless connectivity? Which frequency bands will become important? What is a network compute fabric? What should students learn to take part in the 6G development? These are just some of the questions that are answered. We suggest that you also read Ericsson’s white paper (https://www.ericsson.com/en/reports-and-papers/white-papers/a-research-outlook-towards-6g). Music: On the Verge by Joseph McDade.
