3.2 5G-ENABLED AR ADOPTION CASE STUDY 2 : MAZAK ’ S PROOF POINT FOR 5G 13
Yamazaki Mazak is one of several test use case conducted under the umbrella of Worcestershire 5G Consortium between 2018 and 2020 . They are testing the use of 5G to facilitate interactions during live streaming and communications between an expert and the remote field engineer .

The key lesson from this case study is that the proof point to why we need 5G , specifically the full 5G capabilities in the form of 5G SA , is necessary to meet the baseline experience of 5Genabled AR . This proof point is based on technical performance relative to 4G , 4G private networks , WiFi and 5G private networks . There is a need for the next releases of 3GPP to change the minds of not only the users but also C-level executives for releasing the investment . Waiting for the next releases also means there is a limit to the time in which the equipment will be ready , but AREA members should use this period to start educating enterprises , and the related ecosystem partners .
3.3 5G-ENABLED AR ADOPTION CASE STUDY 3 : SAMSUNG ELECTRONICS AND MMWAVE IN
THE US
Samsung Electronics and AT & T jointly ran a demonstration centre in the former ’ s facilities to provide live experience of various 5G application , including robotics , IoT and mixed reality for training purposes . What is different in this case study is the local conditions in which 5G will be deployed in the US . The more common 5G flavour in the US is mmWave ( See Essential 5G Glossary for definition ), which runs on the high bands of 24.6GHz and above . This type of mmWave spectrum is currently released in the US but also in a selected number of countries such as Italy , Finland , Japan , and South Korea .
