Over the years, Samsung Research has been the cradle of technologies.
Among the technologies it pioneered are: 4G LTE, 5G, Tizen, HEVC (High Efficiency Video Coding), LED Display technology, etc.
At present, relevant business units in the SET (End-products) business are preparing for the commercialization of these technologies. Samsung Research continues to concentrate on the development of future-oriented advanced technology and contribute further in finding new growth engines and creating new markets.
4G LTE
4G LTE is the prevailing mobile technology having more than 3 billion subscribers around the world. The latest LTE smart phones can provide high-speed data up to 1.2 Gbps enabling quick download and smooth live streaming. Samsung released the world-first LTE device in 2009 and has been leading the continuous evolution of LTE technologies to LTE-Advanced and LTE-Advanced Pro.
5G
5G is the next-generation mobile technology aiming to expand the use cases of mobile systems beyond broadband data services. Thanks to its ultrahigh performance such as peak data rate higher than 20 Gbps, latency as low as 1 ms, and reliability better than 99.999%, 5G is expected to enable new services, e.g., VR contents delivery, vehicular communications, and industrial IoT. Samsung was the pioneer to explore mmWave bands for 5G and has been leading the development of 5G core technologies such as massive MIMO, beamforming, and LDPC channel coding.
