The 5G device ecosystem is ramping up, with more than 100 announced 5G devices identified as of August of this year. That means the need for 5G testing of chipsets and user equipment is also on the rise, even as the use of millimeter-wave...
Nextivity’s Supercell helps enterprises make the most of small cell signals
There are three foundational facts that are shaping the in-building cellular market. We know that the vast majority of mobile traffic originates from inside buildings; similarly, we know that modern businesses, regardless of size,...
As AT&T continues to ramp up its build-out of the First Responders Network Authority’s Band 14 spectrum, adding that beachfront 700 MHz spectrum to existing systems poses some deployment challenges.
The FirstNet build-out is happening rapidly. AT&T says that it has deployed Band 14 spectrum...
ADLINK helps enterprises unlock IoT value with time and cost efficiencies
Right now sorting boxes onto the appropriate pallet as these goods move through a supply chain is a time-consuming, error-prone manual process. But it doesn’t have to be. During the recent PACK Expo in...
Self-driving cars, autonomous manufacturing and immersive mobile XR are all on the 5G horizon
5G networks are commercially available in dozens of countries around the globe and consumer adoption of compatible handsets is set to spike in 2020 as coverage scales and services like cloud...
There has been a lot of talk in the industry in last couple of years around SMART-NICs. In this blog, we share our perspective on this new class of network accelerators and the role they play in future of compute platforms. These are expected...
With so many players within the IoT space, from device makers to network providers and even traditional enterprises adopting technical solutions, it has been difficult to establish a standard for connectivity, creating a “wild west” of different standards that had held back interoperability of...
Workforce Transformation is a theme that is talked about in not only technology-based organizations but in all organizations. Companies that focus on retail, healthcare, insurance, finance etc. are all being forced to transform with technology even though technology is not what they do.
Even companies...
Established in 2012, the First Responder Network Authority (FirstNet) is a federal agency created by Congress to oversee the building, deployment and operation of a nationwide public safety broadband network.
Serving as an independent authority within the National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA), FirstNet is...
With the advent of the 5G era, the network architecture is more open, and the emergence of innovative service applications in vertical industries poses a brand-new challenge to the operation and maintenance of telecom networks. In the conditions that operators’ investment remains steady, how...
We have all heard about 5G, but what exactly is it?
5G is simply defined as the fifth generation networks. It’s not just another G. Yes, this wireless system upgrade delivers data to our mobile phones at remarkably fast speeds. But while 5G will indeed...
Make the switch to 5G easy by adopting artificial intelligence in your networks
As 5G networks are lit up in urban cores and devices begin to hit the market, consumers are already seeing upward of 1 Gbps per second over the air. AND that’s just...
Digital technology is just better
In-building cellular coverage is all about distributing cellular signals to where they need to be: users. Traditional analog technology would take the cellular signal source – whether from a BTS (Base Transceiver Station), small cell, or off air – amplify...
The Internet of Things has been growing relentlessly for over a decade now. Is it, however, an already developed and mature phenomenon? Or maybe this rapid growth was actually a destroying force and now the IoT does not have what it takes to secure...
5G-based Smart Water-control and Monitoring
Problems such as flood and soil erosion, water pollution have led to global water resources crisis. Traditional means of water quality monitoring and control lacked automation, and were characterized by few monitoring points, and slow sampling rates. This results in...
ZTE’s Common Core is already helping mobile operators globally to evolve from existing networks to target 5G networks, Jason Tu, principle scientist of NFV/SDN products for ZTE, told RCR Wireless News.
Commenting on the main features of ZTE Common Core and how this technology can...
5G has arrived. One consequence will be the largest volume of millimeter-wave (mmW) ICs ever produced! A radical use case evolution is happening to make ubiquitous 5G possible by harnessing mmW spectrum to increase data speeds by orders of magnitude.
Verizon launched its fixed wireless...
Fifth-generation (5G) cellular technology is making the transition from general idea to network implementation. In addition to faster downloads and lower latencies, 5G will support smart devices, including self-driving cars and wearables, telemedicine and the internet of things (IOT).
Rising data demand will continue to...
There is no one-size-fits-all solution for the cellular coverage holes, dropped calls, unreliable connectivity, and poor reception that plague employees and guests inside middleprise buildings (i.e., those that are up to 500,000 sq. ft.).
Carriers and system integrators have all been challenged by the demands...
We’re all in the video business now
Back in the late ‘90s, mobile network providers were in the phone call business. That’s what drove ARPU. For ISPs using traditional wired delivery mediums, it was just about getting online. (We even called it “Internet dial tone”...
The future of the internet and communications is all about speed. 5G will increase the speed and throughput of cloud connections and devices many times faster than what we see today. But it is still a work-in-progress and getting there is not an easy...
Networks are being significantly impacted by the commoditisation of hardware and the migration of functionality and value to software. This dramatically increases network complexity, but more importantly gives carriers an opportunity to gain a competitive advantage through disruptive new services.
One lucrative new market that...
While 5G networks continue to be a major topic in the network communications industry, there are still many questions around how 5G will be achieved.
Digital usage trends—such as 220 million connected vehicles on the road by 2020 and videos accounting for 82 percent of...
IoT antenna specialist Taoglas discusses MWCA product launches
As the M2M has evolved into the internet of things, the rapidly growing market is driving transformation and creating value in virtually every segment of the consumer, enterprise and industrial markets. Previously static objects are being connected...
