Efforts toward telemedicine using 5G SA and MEC
For the purpose of remote operation and remote technical guidance for surgical assistance robots,
Using 5G SA, low-latency communication of video/control signals can be performed with the level of delay required for remote control of robots (equivalent to fixed lines).
Video signals are branched to multiple destinations via a relay server on the MEC. It should be possible to provide real-time technical guidance from a remote location.
In addition, 5G SA network slicing technology was used to communicate video and control signals, realizing stable communication that is not easily affected by other traffic.
Role of each company
Riverfield: Development and provision of surgical assistance robots KDDI: Construction and provision of 5G SA environment (including connection to MEC)
Soliton: Low-delay transmission protocol (video and control signals), construction and provision of video relay servers
