20. Part 1: Our Predictions For 2022 and Other Topics to Watch Out For
08 Dec 2021
For a lot of us, 2021 was a reset period for our lives. Whether it was learning how to work remotely, helping the kids with remote school, or even just changing the way we traveled, the world began shifting to accommodate a more wireless society. The demand for faster, more reliable networks sent technology giants into overdrive. If 2021 was the reset period, then 2022 is set to launch us into a world of new possibilities. Join us in this new series as we discuss our predictions for wireless technologies in the coming year. In the last episode, we reviewed all the conversations we've had so far and the amazing technology that is currently being built to make our world more accessible. Today, we focus on the business side of wireless telecom, our predictions of what moves wireless carriers are likely to make next year, and what type of activity you might expect to see in your everyday life. Listen in as we talk about the C-Band dilemma with "the big three" carriers and our predictions of how long the delay may last. We talk about improved satellites like Starlink and where we think they fit within the industry of wireless communications, as well as the rise of private and fixed networks that could change the way rural areas work forever. You'll learn about the new infrastructure bill that has recently passed and the things you may see in 2022 like improved reception in stadiums, hospitals, hot spots, and even better service. We talk about the supply chain shortage and how that may affect not only the wireless industry but the infrastructure that may be tapping into those resources next year.
