The Impact of Mobile Technology on the Response to COVID-192 Executive summary As the COVID-19 pandemic has swept the globe, putting immense
4、pressure on healthcare systems and economies around the world, connectivity needs have changed abruptly. The response to COVID-19 has significantly affected connectivity trends, mobile technology use cases and the outlook for 5G deployment and adoption. This paper, the first in a series that examine
5、s the effects of mobile technology on the response to COVID-19, highlights early examples of 5G technology being used during this time and assesses the outlook for the expanded use of 5G in an era when ubiquitous, high-bandwidth connectivity has become more critical than ever. 5G Outlook Series: The
6、 Impact of Mobile Technology on the Response to COVID-19 July 2020 Fixed wireless access Fixed wireless access (FWA) is high-speed, wireless broadband internet access that can be provided without a fixed-line connection to the access point. It is typically delivered over licensed 4G LTE or 5G connec
7、tions, but can also be delivered using unlicensed or shared spectrum. Mobile technology For the purpose of this publication, mobile technology is defined as any mobile device or endpoint connected to the internet, regardless of the source of that internet connection. Note that, by this definition, m
8、obile technology is not limited to connections using licensed spectrum (e.g. 3G, 4G, 5G), but also includes devices and endpoints connected via Wi-Fi. 4G LTE 4G LTE is the fourth-generation technology for cellular communications. LTE is defined as long- term evolution. 5G 5G is the fifth-generation
9、technology for cellular communications. Compared to 4G, its primary benefits include improved bandwidth, latency, reliability, connection density and security.

10、ising from COVID-19 Global analysis of connectivity during the COVID-19 pandemic has found that connectivity trends have been affected by COVID-19 in five key areas: A massive, global shift to remote working Replacement of classroom learning with remote schooling Substitution of in-person gatherings
11、 for online socialization Shifts in commerce and retail in response to sudden changes in consumer behaviour The global public-health crisis response As a direct result of these rapidly changing connectivity trends, many new and existing mobile technology use cases have grown quickly. 5G roll-outs ha
12、ve the potential to further enable mobile technology use cases, through increased mobile adoption and expanded high-speed broadband internet access via fixed wireless access (FWA). 5G will also enhance many of these use cases and enable the creation of countless new ones. In addition to the key use
13、cases directly tied to current connectivity trends, the World Economic Forum is compiling a growing compendium of mobile use cases related to COVID-19.1 Mobile technology use cases arising from COVID-19FIGURE 1 Remote workRemote educationOnline socializationCommerce and retailPublic health Key trend

In the United States, the government will drive 5G roll-outs as a potential means for investing in education, hospitals and domestic manufacturing. Iyad Tarazi,
16、Chief Executive Officer of Federated Wireless While telcos have traditionally led new spectrum deployments, other industry players are also driving 5G. Private-sector entities and governments, including regulators, national governments and local governments, are playing major roles. The World Econom

19、al activities, retail and healthcare. Changes to connectivity trends may remain after the crisis subsides, particularly in the next nine to 12 months as mobility increases, even though physical distancing guidelines remain in place. Mobile technology use cases, most of which are dependent on high-sp
20、eed broadband internet, are helping address these challenges. As a result, access to high-speed broadband internet is becoming ever-more important, especially in cities, which increasingly have an intertwined physical and virtual presence, and in rural areas, where demand for remote healthcare, educ
21、ation and retail services is growing. In the near term, 5G can help address gaps in broadband availability through fixed wireless access, and enable safe working conditions in warehouses, manufacturing facilities and hospitals. Looking further ahead, blanket 5G coverage will enable many direct- to-c

The next article in this series will look at the future of 5G against the backdrop of a global transition to a “new normal” involving an ongoing need for physical distancing, changed working patterns and the requirement for many business models to adap

It will explore issues arising from the easing of lockdown restrictions, the potential market opportunities, and recommendations for how public- and private-sector organizations can make use of 5G technology.
