Summary:
|
IMT-2020 and beyond networks supports diverse data extensive use cases, which increases load on existing IMT infrastructures in developing countries. Current reliance only on IMT-2020 and beyond for both types of services unicast and multicast/ broadcast is inefficient for large-scale content delivery. Converging IMT-2020 and beyond networks with broadcasting network technologies enables efficient delivery of multicast/broadcast services. This approach offers:
• Wider coverage and improved reach in underserved areas.
• Increased resource efficiency by avoiding repeated unicast transmissions.
• Greater resilience through supplementary broadcast paths.
• Support for mass services such as emergency alerts, educational content, software updates, and large-scale media distribution.
.For developing countries, such convergence may address network constraints for enhanced inclusive connectivity. This technical report provides use cases for developing countries in the Converged IMT 2020 and beyond networks and broadcasting network technologies
