Since 2012 we have (almost) annually tried to capture the latest progress made by the 3GPP groups on the studies and specifications under their responsibility.

From LTE to 6G, these snap-shots capture the moment and the evolving language of progress towards a broader interest in 3GPP systems and the radio technologies driving them.

In this short interview, shot in Beijing during the RAN#109 meeting. Younsun Kim gives us an overview of the status of Rel-19 stage 3 freeze, the progress being made on high level Rel-20 priorities and the start of 6G studies in TSG RAN.

We asked Younsun to briefly introduce the role of the working groups in RAN and the relationship that 3GPP has with the IMT process, for new systems for mobile.

Finally, we ask about plans for Rel-21 and when the timeline for that release – the start of 6G specifications - will be confirmed.

  • Rel-19 is delivering on the vision set out for it.
  • 5G Advanced priorities are now set for Rel-20.
  • Rel-20 is also the bridge to 6G - with good progress to report on SA1 and SA2 studies.
  • How the other TSG SA groups are approaching 6G.
