Proximus successfully tested 5G technology with the provider Huawei. During the tests, speeds of up to 70 Gbps were reached over millimetre wave at 73GHz.

The project solutions are demonstrated through a proof-of-concept infrastructure setup at Airbus in Munich. Network equipment from Ericsson, including ground macro base station radio equipment products, a connectivity and virtualization “flight rack”, and 5G virtualized core network functionalities are delivered and operated from Ericsson’s ICT Development Center Eurolab near Aachen (which is also engaged in […]

Vodafone, Ericsson and Qualcomm are collaborating on a 5G New Radio (NR). The trial will focus on 5G NR technologies that utilise wide bandwidths in order to increase overall network capacity and achieve multi-Gbps data rates. The 3GPP’s 5G NR standard-based interoperability testing and trials will begin in the second half of 2017.

Turk Telekom has tested NB-IoT technology in its own network in Turkey as a first operator with Nokia as an important step of 5G strategy of Turk Telekom. Turk Telekom and Nokia have shown demo in a virtual stadium covered by 5G in MWC.

Telenor Group and Huawei demonstrated 5G through the E-band (in the 71-76 GHz/81-86 GHz bands), with a maximum speed of 70Gbps. Furthermore, a Joint Desktop Study that will provide insights and learnings to identify necessary update steps from 4G to 5G technology in Telenor’s Network, will be operated through the Telenor and Huawei Joint Innovation […]

Finnish operator Elisa and Nokia announced the completion of a European test of pre-standard 5G technology using the 3.5GHz band.
