Introducing Rel-16 of the 5G NR Physical Layer

5G New Radio (NR) is finally here. The first NR release was completed in June 2018. The conclusion of NR Rel-15 filled the gaps left by the earlier version published in December 2017, such as stand-alone connectivity and URLLC use cases. And now, while the industry is working hard on deploying the first commercial 5G NR networks, the work on the first evolution of NR has already started. NR Rel-16 is in its very early stages and it is expected to be complete by the end of 2019.

This webinar summarises the 3GPP physical layer workplan for Rel-16 and explores the current status of the main features to be introduced in Rel-16: non-orthogonal multiple access, unlicensed access, V2X, MIMO enhancements, UE power saving, UE positioning and URLLC enhancements.
