In conjunction with MWC Barcelona 2022 which will be taking place from the 28th of February to the 3rd of March, Tara Neal, Executive Editor of The Fast Mode spoke to David Oberholzer, Vice President, Business Development of DeepSig, Inc on the company's plans and showcases for this year's event.

Tara: What do you think MWC 2022 will be all about? And what are your MWC 2022 plans?

David: AI will be a major theme at MWC 22. We will hear from innovators, technologists and operators about how AI will transform wireless networks, services and applications to be more autonomous, performant and deliver entirely new capabilities. We also expect to hear how AI-Native in Beyond 5G RAN will leverage data-driven designs and deep learning to tackle complexity. DeepSig will be talking about and demonstrating our AI-native software solutions: ML-enhanced 5G baseband for improved spectral efficiency and highly agile RF sensing and awareness to optimize and protect wireless networks.

Tara: How has the pandemic impacted the operational and business landscape of the tech segment you are operating in?

David: In our fast-growing tech company, global business slow-downs and fewer in-person collaborations was certainly felt. Hiring is now a challenge for all types of companies not just tech companies. However we are fortunate to have a highly dedicated team of smart young people and a growing customer demand. Our business doubled last year and we see a bright future ahead.

Tara: What emerging trends/technologies have you observed in your tech segment in recent months?

David: First, we see AI-native wireless operations as the most significant advancement coming to next-gen networks. Watch this exciting space as it accelerates in 5G, to 5G-Advanced and ultimately in 6G. Second, we are all watching how open and multi-vendor networks are enabling new innovations, driving virtualization efficiencies and lowering network costs. Open RAN is quickly maturing and will become mainstream in a few years.
