There are now 50 commercial 5G networks around the world
Early adopters of 5G technology have begun to take advantage of numerous initial 5G network rollouts in 2019, according to a statement released by 5G Americas. The data from Ovum showed that there are now four...
The global manufacturing sector will spend over $1 trillion on smart software, hardware and services in 2030, almost quadrupling the $259 billion spend in 2019.
The volume of wireless connections, including LTE and 5G, as well as low-power wide-area (LPWA) technologies and Wi-Fi, will spiral...
Operators in regions such as Europe, Asia and the United States have started the 5G race with commercial launches this year. RCR Wireless News interviewed Ignacio Contreras, director of marketing for 5G of Qualcomm, to learn more about the company's vision on the current...
5G will only gets its wings in 2023, or thereabouts, when its full functionality is revealed in a standalone version of the new radio (NR) standard. That is when it will take flight, and change the world – or, at least, establish a control...
2019 was all about getting 1 Gbps-plus mobile experiences into the hands of consumers. In 2020, expect more of the same as operators invest in technologies like dynamic spectrum sharing to rapidly scale coverage and accelerate the transition to standalone 5G. With the move...
The number of cellular IoT connections will reach five billion by the end of 2025, from 1.3 billion by the end of 2019, according to Ericsson. Around a half will be NB-IoT and LTE-M connections, and around a quarter will be on LTE and...
