Wireless smart pole expands 5G mmWave capabilities in smart cities

As 5G gains traction, CSPs will look to unearth its potential benefits. However, what 5G will also bring in is a compound effect of the challenges that CSPs face already.{loadads} The Three Challenges CSPs face The first of these challenges pertains to the increasing CAPEX intensity which is plaguing the telecom industry, which currently stands at 16%, the highest among any other sector in the wor

Research conducted by telecommunications firms Nokia and Telefónica has found 5G networks to be up to 90% more energy efficient per traffic unit than its 4G predecessor. The study focused on power consumption on Telefónica’s radio access network (RAN), the part of the telecommunications network that wirelessly connects mobile devices to the network. Over a [] The post Nokia study shows 5G up to 90

The engineering hub, which is due for completion in 2021, will provide a base for UK researchers and businesses to experiment, and will allow teams to test the benefits of hybrid 5G and satellite communications networks. The hope is that once the technology is demonstrated, the techniques can be rolled out to other businesses across the UK. The centre is being backed by a European Space Agency con

A new startup has emerged from stealth mode with a design that converges 5G connectivity and AI compute onto a system-on-a-chip (SoC) that’s aimed at edge networks. Founded in 2018, EdgeQ was launched by former executives at Broadcom, Intel, and Qualcomm and has racked up $51 million in funding.EdgeQ’s AI-5G SoC is aimed at 5G private wireless networks for the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT).

Wireless carriers in the U.K. won’t be allowed to install Huawei equipment in their high-speed 5G networks after September 2021, the British government said Monday, hardening its line against the Chinese technology company.
