Overall Report of the Activity
Baba Banda Singh Bahadur Engineering College Fatehgarh Sahib (Punjab) organized a webinar on “Towards 6G Networks” under the aegis of Institution’s Innovation Council (IIC) on 21st
December 2020. Er. Gurbir Singh Sandhu, RF Manager, Network Performance Services, Huawei, Canada was the distinguished speaker. He highlighted that till the 5G standardization and its deployment, the primary focus has been on engineering objectives and KPIs. As we move beyond the present-day networks, the objectives should also include human and societal impacts of networks (both wired and wireless), such that the quality of life for everyone is improved, including those who have yet to experience the value of the Internet. This is because our future society will be increasingly digitized, hyper-connected and globally data-driven. This implies that the Future Networks should be inclusive and useable by everyone. He discussed the latest insights and innovations from industry and academia on future networks. Nothing succeeds without innovations in business models. He also enlightened how 6G Networks could operate supported by advance wireless and sensor technologies. About 100 participants attended the webinar. The webinar was conducted through the Google Meet platform. The event was conducted as per the IIC calendar Activity for Quarter 2 of the year 2020-2021 under the “Session on Process of Innovation Development”.
