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 blog series, we will examine […]
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 […]
The new frontier of ubiquitous and resilient cellular coverage lies beyond the boundaries of the Earth: Non-terrestrial networks (NTNs), or wireless communication systems that operate in space, are expected to provide larger coverage and resilience, and enable applications requiring always-on connectivity such as IoT and autonomous driving. Whether it’s connecting regions experiencing natural disaster, assisting […]
3GPP Release 18, what is it? 3GPP Release 18 is the 4th release of 5G and recognized as the first release of 5G Advanced. Overall, it marks the mid-point of 5G standardization. Significant Updates from Release 17 5G Non-Terrestrial Networks Work was carried out in Release 17 to define the first standardized solutions for 5G […]
