Manufacturing, Information, and Distribution/Service Policy

As part of the Project for Research and Development of Enhanced Infrastructures for Post 5G Information Communication Systems under the FY2019 Supplementary Budget, the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry (METI) opened a call for applicants for operators of research and development program No.1 titled “Developing Post 5G Information Communication Systems” and it determined and adopted 12 successful applicants through the examination by an adoption and examination committee.

1. Purpose of the project

The fifth-generation mobile communications system (5G) is an advanced technology more sophisticated than the fourth-generation mobile communications system (4G). While companies around the world have been launching commercial 5G services, they also have been further enhancing the capabilities of 5G, e.g., ultra-low latency and simultaneous connections of multiple terminals, and calling this enhanced 5G “post 5G.” Post 5G is expected to be used in a variety of industrial applications in such fields as plants and automobiles and to become a potential core technology of the international competitiveness of Japanese industries.

This project aims to develop core technologies of information communication systems tailored to post 5G (hereinafter referred to as “post 5G information communication systems”) in order to enhance infrastructures for developing and manufacturing such post 5G information communication systems in Japan.
