As the telecommunications industry prepares to converge Radio Access Networks (RAN) and Core networks, the need for rigorous testing in a lab environment has never been more critical. This convergence aims to position processing functions and resources closer to the user, diminishing latency and network traffic load while simultaneously boosting quality of experience. With so […]

In 2023, VIAVI Solutions proudly celebrated our 100-year journey as a global leader in communications test and measurement, and optical technologies. As we embark on our 101st year and beyond, here is a window into the trends we are following in our target markets. Scale: 5G In 2023, The State of 5G from VIAVI observed a […]
VIAVI Solutions is right at home at the cutting edge of new telecom technology, whether it’s O-RAN, 6G or non-terrestrial radio networks. Innovations like these aren’t easy, and we’re here to work alongside other leaders in the Telco space to test new solutions, optimize performance, ensure conformance, or help develop new standards. With this in […]
While Augmented Reality (AR) and Virtual Reality (VR) technologies have been around for years, they have not yet entered the mainstream. However, the increasing development and deployment of 5G and edge computing is paving the way for wide-scale adoption of AR & VR through providing solutions to overcome the challenges traditionally faced by the technologies. […]
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 […]
RAN Intelligent Controller At the O-RAN Alliance Plugfest at the end of last year, VIAVI, alongside partners AT&T, Samsung and Nokia, demonstrated an end-to-end traffic steering use case based on a number of open source components. One of these was the near real-time RAN Intelligent Controller platform, or RIC. Central to the demo was VIAVI’s […]
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 […]
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 […]
