Ericsson AB (Ericsson Research)

Ericsson is one of the leading providers of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) to service providers. We enable the full value of connectivity by creating game-changing technology and services that are easy to use, adopt, and scale, making our customers successful in a fully connected world. We accelerate new and sustainable businesses beyond Ericsson's traditional core business. Technologies like 5G, artificial intelligence, automation, VR/AR, and edge computing are opening up new, vast opportunities for our customers, partners and our company. More than 20 years of location know-how and experiences collected from our +100 customer base has been incorporated in Ericsson Network Location, which is built to cater for the future use cases coming with 5G, internet of things and cloud deployments. At Ericsson Research we are fully involved in standardization in all 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) working groups on the topic of positioning since Release 9, with a great track record on technology leadership in the area. Ericsson looks into both Radio Access Technology (RAT)-based and RAT-independent positioning methods to solve localization problems in use-cases such as public safety and natural disasters, Information and Transportation Systems (ITS) and vehicular and industrial IoT use-cases. We are continuously engaged in different research consortiums in Europe and worldwide on the journey of shaping the future networks. Future networks will be a fundamental component for virtually all parts of life, society, and industries, fulfilling the communication needs of humans as well as intelligent machines. The increasing expectations set a clear target for us in the industry and research community — 6G should contribute to an efficient, human-friendly, sustainable society through ever-present intelligent communication.
