Timing and synchronization is everything in 5G For a mobile network operator, timing is everything. Not just determining when to upgrade the network to bring new services to market, but in the literal sense as well. If the radio clock loses synchronization accuracy in a radio access network (RAN), or the radios are out of […]
C-band and the role it plays in 5G Midband (or C-band) is considered the “waterfront property” of RF spectrum for 5G. It offers the best compromise between RF coverage and RF bandwidth. Per ITU’s minimum technical requirements to meet the IMT-2020 criteria for eMBB, at least 100 MHz of bandwidth will be required. For a […]
Virtual environments have been critical for many of us over the past year. The office as a physical space – not just for employees but a place to host servers and hardware – is diminishing in importance. Employees have been able to access applications and collaborative working tools wherever they’ve been working, reducing our […]
Telecommunication networks play an integral part in facilitating the operations of a wider global market. As such, they are expected to handle large loads of bandwidth at a rapid pace, while maintaining data integrity. Ensuring that the software provided by telecoms companies works flawlessly is of paramount importance. One way to do so is by […]
In order to keep pace with the ever-increasing user expectations for instant access to information, operators need the agility to scale on demand, make changes quickly, and launch innovative products and services as required. As such, network operators are leading the path to an open architecture like Open RAN for its ability to provide a […]
The fifth-generation global wireless technology promises to deliver data rates at faster speed, low latency, and the ability to power brand-new experiences in 2021. With its superior network performance, the arrival of 5G promises to transform our daily lives. Because of this, 5G is expected to drive most of the anticipation and activity in the […]
Salt and pepper. Peanut butter and jelly. Bacon and eggs. Some duos create an exquisite experience that’s otherwise unimaginable, and the same can be said of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and 5G networks. The use cases for AI continue to grow for customers and enterprises, opening limitless possibilities that were considered pure science fiction a […]
Telcos and hyperscalers join forces to tackle connectivity 5G is here, and with it the promise of a range of new use cases that rely on ultra-low latency and ultra-reliable networks. In order to be able deliver on these performance requirements, networks are pushing processing power closer to the end users, to the edge of […]
During the installation of a wireless network, antenna alignment counts. As mobile operators plan coverage objectives, it is critically important that antenna alignment is accurately implemented during cell site installation. Otherwise, it may result in coverage gaps, network performance degradation, and loss of revenue. It is equally important that installers are equipped with an effective […]
The new 5G technology will considerably improve a large number of services and accelerates the digital transformation of an industry. With massive and low-latency connectivity, 5G can revolutionize the robotics industry, especially when it is combined with MEC (Mobile or Multi-access Edge Compute). In this article, we will explain why 5G is paramount to the […]
