The R & D and Standardization Activities of ARIB

Abstract

Radio systems in the field of telecommunication and broadcasting, as seen in mobile phones, wireless LAN, ITS, digital broadcasting, have been increasingly sophisticated and diversified with the rapid advances in digital technologies. They are essential for our economic activities and social life. Research and development (R & D) and standardization for new radio systems have become more important, so that the role of the Association of Radio Industries and Businesses (ARIB), as a standards development organization (SDO) for radio systems, has been increasing. The paper describes the current overview and future challenges of ARIB.
