Network slicing, which makes private networks possible, provides enterprises with dedicated network resources. It works by interacting with a set of network functions. Part 1 of this series covered how 5G network slicing enables operators to deploy, modify, and scale customized virtual networks, along with key slicing techniques and connectivity models. Part two discusses the…
Video: How should 5G, 6G evolve?
EE World spoke with Matsing’s Manish Matta and Keysight’s Roger Nichols on how 5G is evolving into business use cases and where 6G could play a role.
How do 5G eMBB and FWA data services compare?
Fixed-wireless access is a special use case of enhanced mobile broadband, one of the three use cases specified for 5G. FWA brings different challenges for deployment than eMBB.
6G Symposium: The discussions continue
The 6G Symposium took place on October 18 and 19, 2023, in Washington, DC. This year, the talk was more about use cases, with less talk about sustainability than in the past. One week before the symposium, I heard two contrasting views on 5G given at a virtual conference. In the morning, Chris Pearson of…
The first non-cellular 5G standard: DECT NR+
Officially known as DECT-2020 NR, the protocol brings 5G to smart devices over non-cellular networks. Learn more from a video interview with Jussi Numminen of Wirepas and vice-chair of the ETSI DECT technical committee. For several years, we’ve been hearing about the three points of 5G: enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB), massive machine-type communications (mMTC), and…
AI and 5G come together in private networks
Operating in the unlicensed CBRS band, AI and 5G operate at the physical layer to bring processing power to factories and other use cases. In a video interview, EE World hears from EdgeQ’s Adil Kidwai on how the technologies come together.
Customize private 5G networks for application requirements
5G private networks show potential for a wide range of diverse applications. Engineers can implement features to address the requirements of markets such as manufacturing and non-terrestrial networks.
Private 5G: What is it? How does it work?
Private networks, whether operated by users or by wireless carriers, requires radios, addressing, timing, and automation to make them run.
Baseband modem IP supports handsets, IoT, FWA with less power
CEVA’s PentaG2 baseband modem IP provides accelerated 4G/5G processing between RF circuits and Layer 2.
6G Symposium emphasizes business and technology
The latest symposium took a turn toward business use cases at the expense of the usual technical talks, with speakers saying that use cases should drive the technology. Through most of 5G’s development, conference topics generally focused on the technologies such as the radio and network technologies. With much of that settled, talk moved to…
