NetXRate shows how 5G/O-RAN intelligence can give XR apps per-flow rate recommendations before quality drops, cutting simulated XR outages by up to 96% while improving fairness for eMBB traffic.
3GPP RAN2 #133bis showed 6G RAN2 moving toward simpler system information, single paging, cleaner mobility and unified energy-saving behavior.
Technical recap of 3GPP RAN3 #131-bis in Malta, covering Release 20 progress on 6G RAN architecture, P2P vs SBI for the RAN-CN interface, 6G data collection, HLS, Xa, and NR ISAC architecture and procedures.
TSG RAN#111 in Fukuoka marked a turning point for 6G. As TR 38.914 neared completion, RAN shifted from vision to engineering—resolving key debates, aligning Release 21, and advancing AI/ML, ISAC, NTN, and Ambient IoT into concrete standardization paths.
Business Design Centre, London – 7 November 2025 TL;DR. Quantum tech has left the lab. At this year’s UK National Quantum Technologies Showcase, I saw navigation and
RAN2#132 progressed a broad maintenance stream across LTE/NR, Rel-18 correction centered on RRC/MAC/UE capability consistency, advanced Rel-19 AI/ML air-interface lifecycle management, and captured early 6G (Rel-20) study directions - modular RRC, data/model transfer, energy efficiency, TN/NTN.
RAN3 #130 was dominated by R-19 “essential corrections” work: LTM/mobility cleanups, Continuous MDT hooks, and AI/ML-for-NG-RAN alignment across Xn/F1/E1 and Stage-2 text. AIoT and energy saving also advanced via targeted NGAP/XnAP/F1AP fixes, while 6G study items stayed in architecture framing.
Explore the highlights from 6G-XR Impact Day 2025 in Madrid, where industry experts showcased immersive XR demos and tackled key challenges in 6G, data governance, and open standards—shaping the future of connectivity and innovation
Global efforts to standardize quantum tech are expanding. ETSI TC QT leads in quantum computing standards, post-quantum cryptography, QKD, and more.
Deep technical wrap from 3GPP RAN2#131bis (Prague, 13–17 Oct 2025): Release-19 features converge—LP-WUS, NES, XR, Ambient IoT, sidelink multi-hop, NTN IoT—plus clear 6G mobility direction (standalone-first, unified HO/measurements). Every item traced to R2/RP docs.
