  As the dust settles from RAN#108 in Prague, the industry now has the approved 6G Study Item (RP-251881)—the first concrete blueprint for the next generation of wireless. While it's easy to focus on the individual technical objectives, a deeper look reveals a crucial strategic pivot that will define the success of our contributions for the next decade. The core insight from Wispro's analysis is this: The final 6G Study Item reveals a deliberate pivot from a collection of siloed features to a single, unified design philosophy that prioritizes long-term simplicity and harmonization. Here’s what that means for the 3GPP...

The industry stands at a pivotal moment as we head into 3GPP RAN#108. The agenda is set, the contributions are in, and the critical task of defining the initial path for 6G is upon us. The sheer volume of technical documents for the 6G Study Item (SI) presents a significant challenge for all involved. At Wispro, we believe advanced tools can help manage this complexity. We used an AI-assisted approach to process and synthesize 170+ TDocs for agenda items 16, 16.1, and 16.2. Our goal was not to predict an outcome, but to create a consolidated, data-driven view to help...
