Over the next few years, Nokia expects a 10,000x increase in bandwidth. It’s no secret: today’s 4G LTE wireless networks simply can’t handle the data demands of our rapidly approaching, hyperconnected future whether it be enhanced mobile broadband and ultra-reliable machine to machine communications. Read the full story on National Instruments.
From April 19-21, hundreds of global industry leaders and star researchers — the forces fueling a new communications revolution — converged at MetroTech Center for the invitation-only Fourth Annual Brooklyn 5G Summit, co-hosted by Nokia and NYU WIRELESS. It isn’t hyperbole to refer to what’s happening in fifth-generation (5G) wireless communications as a revolution — …
T-Mobile said it would deploy fifth-generation wireless technology nationwide by 2020, setting an aggressive goal for itself as bigger rivals lay the groundwork for their own network upgrades. The technology is already advanced enough to download enormous amounts of data in field trials, said Ted Rappaport, a professor at New York University’s Tandon School of …
5G Progress, Realities Set in at Brooklyn 5G SummitIEEE Spectrum “5G technologies are early in their development, and the business cases for them are a bit fuzzy, but wireless researchers and executives still had plenty to celebrate this week at the annual Brooklyn 5G Summit. They’ve made steady progress on defining future 5G networks, and …
