Interestingly, it uses the AirFrame servers they offer for Mobile Edge Computing to support the software elements of the setup. Nokia Networks has completely redesigned its core base station products, announcing a new architecture to replace the Flexi BTS line everyone’s familiar with. You can’t say that about the European vendors, though. Here are some Eurocarrier executives being really defensive. Ewaldsson compared EU spectrum policy with the FCC’s efforts since 2009’s National Broadband Plan very unfavourably. Ericsson CEO Hans Vestberg said as much, and so did CTO Ulf Ewaldsson later in the week.
Interestingly, they’re licensing the solution KT uses in South Korea for its gigabit wireless service.ĮTSI is sounding suitably concerned about all the marketing, but another reading of its warning is just that the European carriers are falling badly behind. Turk Telecom says it’s launching “5G Internet” on the 1st of April, but this actually turns out to be 4.5G LTE-A or A-Pro with aggregated WiFi. Meanwhile, some poor souls were on the road again immediately after MWC, as the ITU-R met in Beijing and agreed the criteria it would use to evaluate potential 5G air interfaces.Īs always at these moments, there’s a race to come up with the most hype-tastic names possible. It wasn’t what you’d call femto, but the high content of IT hardware and open source was telling.Ī standards initiative has been set up by NTT DoCoMo, the Koreans, and VZW to standardise 5G test methods and configurations.

Fascinatingly, the site consisted entirely of three Xeon rackmount servers running a virtualised base station and a pair of CDN nodes, plus a whole lot of National Instruments USRPs, open-source software radios. It has partnerships with a wide range of carriers and plans to run field trials with KT in 2018, and it also brought a 5G experimental cell site to the show. Intel, especially, is emerging as an important actor. It’s probably no coincidence that’s also the timing VZW suggested, especially as VZW is usually joined at the hip to what used to be Alcatel.
The “early 5G” consensus around the key semiconductor vendors plus Nokia and Ericsson seems to be stronger than ever - Nokia CEO Rajeev Suri went as far as suggesting we might see production deployments in 2017. That said, the results from VZW’s field trials with the two vendors are in and they seem… encouraging. Tests are expected to begin this year, but CTO Neville Ray is playing it down and says it won’t be a big deal before 2020. Also, there were a whole swath of new “partnerships” - Vodafone says its 5G partners are Huawei, Nokia, Ericsson, Intel, and Qualcomm, or to put it another way, everyone.Īfter AT&T and VZW, T-Mobile USA has taken a partner, or rather two, for 5G trials - Nokia and Ericsson. Every significant vendor had something to show off the main distinction was whether they claimed it was already 5G, like Nokia, Ericsson, Intel, SK Telecom, Ooredoo, Samsung, DTAG, and Huawei, or contented themselves with “pre-5G”, like ZTE. As Informa’s Scott Bicheno points out, though, the big difference between this year and last was that there was no more talk of “special generations”, “the last G”, or 5G being a “behaviour” or a “state of mind”. It was almost a mantra, endlessly repeated, or one of those Chinese political slogans that always come as a numbered list. This year’s MWC was all about three things: 5G, the cloud, and the Internet of Things.
