Indoor Gigabit LTE coming to Switzerland
Starting with the deployment of the Ericsson Radio Dot System in the operator’s retail stores, Ericsson and Swisscom are bringing gigabit connectivity to Swiss consumers. This is a big leap toward supplying greater quality coverage and capacity in hard-to-reach places such as garages, elevators and commercial buildings, and delivering a true gigabit experience to all Swisscom subscribers across the entire network.
Bringing 5G to Chile
Ericsson has extended its 20 year partnership with Entel, the largest telecommunications company in Chile. Under the terms of the new contract, Ericsson will prepare Entel’s network in the evolution path towards 5G by deploying its latest LTE FDD network technologies and LTE TDD Massive MIMO (Multiple-Input, Multiple-Output). This will allow Entel to increase its competitiveness and capture additional revenue streams. Entel will be the firs...
How will wireless infrastructure change in the next decade?
The 5th generation of cellular networks is anticipated to arrive in the timeframe of the next two to five years, enabling Gbps datarates and a plethora of new applications and services. One of the key drivers for developing such speed is high resolution video demand (4, 8K etc) over mobile devices.
China shows that it's 5G ready
The first successful 5G 3.5GHz multi-vendor end-to-end Interoperability Developmental Test (IoDT) in China has been completed at a 5G field test Beijing following a partnership between Ericsson and Intel. The field test is a significant milestone since China’s three major operators have already announced plans to roll-out 5G in the 3.5GHz band.
Multi-chip module addresses EU mmWave 5G 'Pioneer Band'
A multi-chip module (MCM) to cover the recently-designated European ‘Pioneer Band’ for millimetre-wave (mmWave) 5G around 26GHz has been has been developed by Plextek RFI, a UK design house specialising in microwave and millimetre-wave IC design. The development of the Front-End Module (FEM) was carried out in collaboration with Filtronic Broadband.
Demystifying 5G - testing the true performance of ADCs
Enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB), one of the 5G use cases, targets wider bandwidths at frequencies in the mmWave range to achieve the promised Gbps experience.
Bridging the gap from 4G to 5G
Global provider of communications technology, Ericsson, has introduced a new radio product, AIR 3246, for Massive Multiple Input Multiple Output (Massive MIMO), which is a complement to Ericsson’s global 5G radio offering. AIR 3246 supports both 4G/LTE and 5G NR (New Radio) technologies and is Ericsson’s first 5G NR radio for frequency division duplex (FDD). This launch will enable operators – especially in metropolitan are...
