From KT 5G to various IoT technologies, you can find them at WIS 2017
KT will participate in "World IT Show 2017" (hereinafter WIS 2017), the nation's largest information and communications exhibition held at COEX from the 24th to the 27th, presenting an exhibition pavilion under the theme of "Experiencing PyeongChang 5G in Advance." KT has organized its exhibition pavilion into a total of 2 zones: ▲5G Network Zone ▲Convergence Service Zone. At the entrance of the exhibition pavilion, the "5G Network" zone is configured with C-DRX (Connected mode Discontinuous Reception), a smartphone battery consumption reduction technology for KT wireless subscribers. Through C-DRX, KT wireless subscribers can experience up to 45% increase in smartphone battery usage time. C-DRX improves upon the existing method where the device remains in a connected state during data usage, constantly consuming battery. Instead, it reduces battery consumption by deactivating communication functions when there is no transmission or reception. Within the exhibition hall, visitors can receive detailed explanations through HoloLens MR and appreciate a media facade shaped like a snowy winter using thousands of LED bulbs powered by electricity saved per second by all KT wireless subscribers. Upon passing through the media facade, visitors encounter 5G technology. The pavilion introduces speed, coverage, and equipment based on PyeongChang 5G specifications and provides augmented reality (AR) explanations of 5G technology through a diorama at the center of the booth. The front of the "Convergence Service" zone features VR equipment that allows visitors to experience KT's 5G services while enjoying various winter sports in an immersive manner. Through various VR equipment including luge, alpine skiing, bobsled, and figure skating, visitors can experience 5G services.

SK Telecom First Applies AI-Based Network Operations at Gwanghwamun K-Pop Concert
SK Telecom announced that it applied an AI-based network operation system for the first time at a large-scale K-pop concert held in the Gwanghwamun area of Seoul on March 21st, managing communication quality throughout the event. Mobile data usage during the three hours before and after the concert reached 12.15TB, approximately doubling compared to the same time slot the previous weekend. SK Telecom monitored traffic using the AI system 'A-One' in five-minute and 50-meter units to respond to potential overload situations, while also operating temporary communication facilities and on-site personnel in parallel. This case is interpreted as confirmation of the practical applicability of AI-based autonomous network operation in an environment where demand from dense events and foreign users increases simultaneously.
