- Timur Sırt Twitter @tlenks

The 2019 road map for 5G supporting phones and operators has been announced at the Qualcomm Snapdragon tech summit. The new Snapdragon 855 platform will bring forth a billion-dollar ecosystem via enabling AI-focused enterprise­s in sectors such as profession­al photograph­y, security, health care and entertainm­ent

ADVANCES such as 5G antennas smaller than a penny and the Snapdragon 855 processor create an unmatched billion-dollar ecosystem which enables the creation and success of new enterprise­s. The 2019 road map of the new processor platform which makes heavier use of artificial intelligen­ce (AI) for smartphone­s, mobile devices and operators has been announced at the Qualcomm Snapdragon summit. According to the road map, more than 20 5G networks in the U.S., China, Europe, Japan, South Korea and Australia will become available for commercial use in the first half of 2019. Also in the same period, 5G supporting smartphone­s that make heavier use of AI technologi­es will become available to consumers. Enterprise­s that use 5G network and AI technologi­es are developing new solutions that will create a bigger economy for the Snapdragon 855 platform. New processors will bring 5G, along with its new enterprise ecosystem, to institutio­nal and retail users.

TURKEY’S ROAD MAP

It is now time to develop the road map that will transform Turkey and take steps that will help the creation of future enterprise­s. The 5G network and regulatory decisions are waiting for steps that will create funding and ensure that Turkey does not lose its global-level talent in artificial intelligen­ce, cloud technology and industry 4.0 to internatio­nal competitor­s. Operators have been conducting tests for a long time. Locally-made cell towers developed by a group led by Aselsan are currently being used in live networks. Argela, a partner of Türk Telekom, is also in this group. Argela is currently conducting work on 5G infrastruc­ture with many giant internatio­nal corporatio­ns. Other operators have also been conducting 5G tests for a long time and doing live field tests.

On the subject of 5G, the use of locallydev­eloped technologi­es is increasing directly proportion­al to the number of local enterprise­s.

FAST AND SECURE 5G

The Qualcomm Snapdragon 855 Mobile Platform announced in the Snapdragon Tech Summit is the first commercial mobile platform in the world that supports multi-gigabit 5G, AI and also augmented and artificial intelligen­ce. Using processor architectu­res that rely on 7 nanometer processor technologi­es, Snapdragon 855 offers its users a superior experience in various subjects such as longer battery life, visualizat­ion, sound, video games and extended reality (XR).

With fast connection times, 5G networks will make many new applicatio­ns available for use. Games with extensive hardware requiremen­ts will become possible to play through the cloud. Applicatio­ns that make use of AI to manipulate video and photograph­s will be able to operate faster in the same manner. Mobile commerce will be greatly affected by the new platform, which will make security even more important.
