Digital twins — virtual models of physical systems like 6G, NTN, and 5G — make it possible to simulate, analyze, and optimize all network systems and components, including their non-terrestrial elements. This is especially useful for accelerating rollouts and identifying bottlenecks and drawbacks before they become real problems. In this two-part blog series, we will […]

This year’s IEEE International Conference on Communications (ICC) is nearly upon us. The event takes the overall theme of “Communications Technologies 4Good”, with papers and presentations looking into not just the future of communications and how AI/robotics can supercharge it, but also technology solutions that can be used for public safety. VIAVI is highly active […]
Mobile World Congress (MWC) Barcelona is almost here again. Last year saw several major announcements on the evolution to 6G, including a notable joint shared-principles statement from 10 countries announcing their intention to “support open, free, global, interoperable, reliable, resilient, and secure connectivity.” As a trusted partner in network test, automation, and optimization for over […]
While we are still in the process of the global rollout of 5G, the hype is already building about the next generation of wireless technology: 6G. In fact, many telecommunications vendors are already investing heavily in 6G technology, which is currently in the research phase. Although implementation may still be many years away, 6G is […]
Learn about VIAVI 5G Solutions 5G is in its infancy, which means challenges – in terms of testing, launching and funding new networks – still remain. Yet major industry players including Apple, Google, Ericsson and Nokia have announced their participation in industry research initiatives to develop 6G. How can we incorporate learnings from the ongoing […]
5G may be only just out of the starting blocks, but 6G is quickly emerging as the next hot topic. We perhaps shouldn’t have been surprised to learn that, in the same month that it launched 5G in 50 cities, China announced the launch of a national technology R&D centre focused on 6G. The telecoms […]
New risks are on the rise for telecom networks, Having the right security solution in place as early in the development phase as possible is required. The proactive security strategies should include a focus on the role of DevSecOps, Zero Trust, and AI/ML to address the fast-approaching challenges of the near future. Telco networks are […]
OFC 2022 has brought industry players back together at the premier global event for optical communications and networking, hosting 8,000 participants and 430 exhibiting companies. Read about key highlights and takeaways from the event. What a feeling to be back at OFC 2022 and see folks across the optical communications community face-to-face. Collaboration is such […]
Starting from summer 2025, if you have one of the latest top-brand LTE smartphones, you can sign up for direct-to-cell mobile connections to Starlink satellites for messaging using the existing LTE spectrum in areas without terrestrial coverage. While only limited services will initially be available, these base stations in the sky can potentially deliver mobile […]
