As the telecommunications industry continues to evolve, the debate around 6G is heating up. While some industry leaders are making significant investments in 6G research and development, driven by the promise of more energy-efficient next-generation networks, others remain skeptical. They question the tangible benefits...
In this special episode of Will 5G Change the World?, presented in partnership with NETSCOUT, we dive into the world of telco AI. As operators develop and implement long-term AI strategies, supporting it all are foundation models, specifically large language models. This episode, featuring...
It’s more important than ever that the federal government show united leadership around the necessity of technical spectrum studies
While a significant percentage of Broadcom’s revenue comes from broadband and Wi-Fi, it also has significant exposure to the mobile cellular market. Therefore, when it comes...
Ever dropped a call at the most inconvenient moment? Or struggled to get service with a sluggish radio connection despite being at "full bars"? In many cases, these frustrating experiences stem from unseen interference impacting the radio connection’s quality of service (QoS), reducing uplink...
RCR Wireless News recently hosted the Private Networks Global Forum. This is the fifth version of this event — in either its global or European format, and it feels like this technology has come a long way, and also not very far at all.

The significant funding allocated to broadband deployment through various U.S. legislative efforts will play a crucial role in overcoming the primary obstacle to bridging the digital divide: the high infrastructure costs that have led to delayed or absent ROI. However, another challenge has emerged:...
Open RAN has long been described as a journey, with the first steps focused purely on disaggregating hardware and software, then reaggregating it into a function radio system.
Now the focus is shifting to more robust implementations that go beyond disaggregation and get into open,...
In modern networks, timing and synchronization are increasingly important due to the deployment of TDD midband spectrum for 5G and the demand for precise coordination for features like carrier aggregation, massive MIMO and positioning.
As MNOs focus on optimizing and densifying 5G networks, and as...
Samsung sees BEAD funding as a potential catalyst for more fixed wireless access deployments
There are two major and complementary trends playing out in the U.S. mobile network operator market. First, 5G-enabled fixed wireless access (FWA) has emerged as the primary growth driver for the...
While there may be many ways to launch a 6G network, the 5G experience suggests that picking the fastest route may not be the most prudent choice in the long run.
Welcome to the second installment of 6G Foundry, where we dive deeper into the...
SureCall recently announced its latest signal booster for enterprise buildings, and while there’s a lot to highlight about the SpeedLink 5G, the company’s Founder and CEO Hongtao Zhan told RCR Wireless News that one of the key details is that it is the only...
In less than two weeks, CEOs, government officials, executives, and international representatives from across Latin America will converge in Mexico City.
27 May 2024, Buenos Aires: M360 LATAM and the 11th Latin American Congress on Digital Transformation (CLTD 2024) are gearing up to welcome telecommunications...
Scan the tech headlines, and you can’t escape the impression that artificial intelligence (AI) is about to transform practically every industry. Usually though, the picture these stories paint of AI-driven disruption is still hypothetical. For the organizations running the world’s biggest data centers, however,...
5G RedCap (short for ‘reduced capability’) is a new standard for devices that require some 5G advantages, such as high speed and ultra-low latency, without needing full 5G capabilities.
Full 5G is impractical and expensive for many IoT use cases, especially in markets without 5G...
As networks continue to evolve from classical, monolithic architectures to cloud-native, disaggregated networks, the way we test networks needs to evolve too in this more software-centric environment, to ensure that new 5G-specific services can be guaranteed for end users.

With the conclusion of the 2023 World Radiocommunications Conference (WRC-23) in December came proclamations that a global consensus on mid-band spectrum harmonization, specifically the 6 GHz band, was achieved. The GSMA, for instance, declared that “6 GHz spectrum is now the harmonised home for...
Commercial momentum for Open and Virtualized RAN is on the rise, demonstrating ecosystem readiness to move Open vRAN forward with deployments at scale. In parallel, AI is finding its way everywhere – in the cloud, edge and on-device, illuminating opportunities for improved performance, efficiency...
With the rapid evolution of wireless communication technologies, 5G has emerged as a transformative force, particularly in enterprise settings where private networks at the edge are becoming increasingly prevalent.In this report, RCR Wireless News explore the critical considerations surrounding the security of 5G private networks...
It’s easy to imagine how artificial intelligence could benefit communications service providers (CSPs), not least by automating complex operations in radio access networks (RAN). Often though, that story gets boiled down to how AI will “drive down network costs and complexity,” and that’s a...
It seems quite evident that AI, both generative and more classical, is going to change the way all industries work.For mobile network operators, AI seems like the tool that will finally turn data into insights that influence how networks and designed, deployed and managed...
Qualcomm is leading the innovation pipeline for 5G Advanced and beyond
For decades, Qualcomm has been at the forefront of spearheading pivotal wireless innovations. With 5G, we pioneered key inventions that were adopted into the first three standard releases (i.e., Release 15, Release 16, Release 17). And now,...
