JEDEC standards provide interoperability of various technologies. The wide applications of the well-defined JEDEC standards showcase their importance. JEDEC provides a base for the technologies to grow further with the inclusion of extra efforts. With contributors from more than 3000 companies, JEDEC committees show its authenticity as several tech giants across various fields widely accept it. JEDEC defines almost every latest memory technology. JEDEC standards are becoming a path for tech companies to move towards advancing technologies using the configurations provided by JEDEC while ensuring interoperability at the same time.

This whitepaper by Lumenci explains various JEDEC technology and standardization areas and their patent landscape. It further covers the JEDEC memory committee and categories within JEDEC memory standards. It also talks about JEDEC standards involved in US litigation Cases.

Lumenci has a large team of tech experts with a superior understanding of various latest technologies, their industrial applications, and deployment challenges. We work closely with corporations, start-ups, universities & VC/PE funds to advise them on everything from IP strategy to IP litigation, covering a variety of tech domains.

Several factors are driving the massive adoption of 5G and IoT, including rising consumer and industry demand and the availability of more affordable equipment. As the Internet of Things (IoT) evolves, the flexibility of 5G will become even more important for enterprises seeking to ensure better communication technologies. The high reliability and low latency of 5G will make many applications, such as self-driving cars, smart energy grids, and better factory automation, a reality. As 5G expands network capacity, AI, Cloud Computing, and Edge Computing will help manage the data quantities generated by IoT. Further, 5G advancements, such as network slicing, non-public networks, and 5G core, will eventually aid in realizing the vision of a global IoT network capable of supporting a massive number of connected devices.

This whitepaper by Lumenci explains how 5G cellular technology will impact the Internet of Things (IoT). This highly researched paper has resulted from the dedicated work of our telecommunication and wireless experts to bring the latest developments and trends in 5G and IoT.

Large enterprises and service providers are facing heavy competition leading to colossal damage to traditional business models for several reasons, including growth in multimedia content, increased mobile usage, and growth in cloud computing technologies. Thus, many players are turning to SDN technology to revolutionize network design and operations. In 2020, the global SDN market size was approximately $13.7 billion and will reach $32.7 billion in 2025, growing at a CAGR of 19.0% during the forecast period.

The advent of the Software-Defined Networking (SDN) technology brought along one of those adopted concepts in the cloud model that can eliminate network infrastructure maintenance processes and guarantee easy management. This way, SDN can provide real-time performance and solutions to high availability requirements. This whitepaper talks in detail about the importance of SDN and the challenges it faces. It also talks in detail about the future research directions for SDN.

Machine Learning (ML) in AI is an excellent tool for solving real-world problems. ML algorithms make use of historical data to make predictions. A few good examples and uses of ML are recommendation engines, business process automation (BPA), fraud detection, spam filtering, malware threat detection, and predictive maintenance. Due to these unique capabilities, many tech giants leverage ML technologies to make themselves rich in innovations. ML helps enterprises understand customer behavior trends and operational business patterns, thus aiding in developing new products. ML is the central part of operations in many of these leading companies giving them a competitive advantage. 

AI/ML technology is so rapidly developing that the world may witness some ground-breaking achievements soon. This paper explores the technical aspects of ML algorithms. It does a detailed analysis of the patent landscape to measure the depth of ML in various sectors and foresee the outcomes of this amalgamation.

Lumenci has expertise in many cutting-edge technologies, such as AI and ML. Our AI/ML experts have years of hands-on experience in product testing, source code analysis, data analysis, and IP litigation matters associated with advanced AI and related technologies.

One of the unique features of the 5G network involves Network Slicing, and each slice can be optimized with the network resources and connectivity required to meet the specified QoS.

Lumenci has experience dealing with Standard Essential Patents (SEPs). In this paper, we analyzed 5G Network Slicing SEPs and provided different market insights related to market participants, new entrants, seminal patents, 3gpp standards, and future directions in one place for the benefit of different industries. For a similar analysis on 5G beamforming, refer to our first white paper in this Series of 5G white papers.

Mobile network operators have started seeking new ways to support heterogeneous services. 5G Network Slicing allows operators to create service instances quickly and flexibly, enabling various services to have their logical slice instances on a common infrastructure.

Beamforming is a notable Technology in 5G for its applications and promising upcoming standard features. With 5G, we're moving endlessly from the coverage-based network to a client-centered network. This is accomplished by the utilization of Massive-MIMO frameworks using Beamforming.

Market participants in the Telecom Industry have many patents self-endorsed as Standard Essentials Patents. This paper aims to understand each patent disclosed as a SEP towards Beamforming and map them onto a taxonomy specific to Beamforming. This report also highlights the strength of the patents within Beamforming. It brings various insights related to market participants, seminal patents, and future directions in one place to benefit the telecom industry.

Lumenci has analyzed a portfolio of patents for the technology-based division along with the Assignees trend and identified the top 100 seminal patents in 5G Beamforming. We also utilized semantic algorithms to identify companies and Universities that hold patents similar to already disclosed Beamforming SEPs. Such similar patents could be potential SEPs in the future.
