The 3rd generation partnership project (3GPP) initiated 5G-Advanced in Release 18, laying a solid foundation for the further evolution of 5G-Advanced. Release 19-the next wave of 5G-Advanced-will primarily focus on commercial deployment needs while serving as a bridge toward 6G. In this article, we provide an in-depth overview of the 5G-Advanced evolution in 3GPP Release 19. We not only delve into the key technology components and their corresponding use cases in 5G-Advanced evolution but also shed light on initial 3GPP studies toward 6G.
