Global 5G Community

  1. Demand for Private Mobile Networks: The demand for private mobile networks based on 4G LTE and 5G technologies is driven by the increasing data, security, digitization & mobility requirements of modern enterprise and government entities. 2. Number of Countries with Private Mobile Networks: The GSA report states that 74 countries globally have at least one private mobile network in place. 3. Leading Verticals: The verticals with the highest growth in private mobile networks are Manufacturing, Education, Device Testing and Lab as a Service, Oil & Gas. 4. Customer References: The GSA report indicates that there were 1,148 customer references in Q1 2023, up from 1,077 in Q4 2022. 5. LTE Deployment: Among the cataloged customers deploying private mobile networks, LTE is used by 853 of them, according to the data available to GSA. 6. 5G Deployment: 5G is being deployed in 505 customers, which accounts for 48% of the cataloged customers. These deployments primarily focus on l...

Spacecraft digital twins are virtual representations of a physical spacecraft. They can be used to monitor and diagnose spacecraft health, optimize operations and plan for future missions.

  5G-LEO - OpenAirInterface™ extension for  #5g   #satellite  links Objectives-5G-LEO aims to accelerate the development of OAI as an open-source tool allowing the exchange & comparison of 5G NTN results by the SatCom community & facilitating the collaboration in R&D activities. The extended OAI software library is seen as an important instrument to develop early prototypes for validating key 5G NTN design aspects & providing prompt feedback to the 3GPP standardization process. The main objectives of the 5G-LEO project are the following: Review the reference scenarios & use cases identified for NR-NTN system deployments by 3GPP & selection of a 5G LEO baseline scenario to be implemented & verified with the extended OAI library. Identification of the fundamental gaps & changes needed in the code base for properly extending OAI for the 5G LEO baseline scenario. Implementation of the required OAI code adaptations for the different layers ...

  Why LEO satellite players are telcos’ new best friends Telcos are turning to the growing number of low-earth orbit (LEO) satellite operators to help them offer services to customers in remote and hard-to-reach areas on land, at sea and in the air. Telcos everywhere are brokering partnerships with the likes of Elon Musk’s Starlink, OneWeb, AST Spacemobile, Lynk Global (and likely, soon, Amazon’s Kuiper) Telstra and OneWeb new partnership partnership will result in “one of the world’s largest rollouts” of commercial backhaul connectivity using OneWeb’s LEO constellation. - will also use OneWeb connectivity for future sites where satellite backhaul serves as the preferable or the “only viable option” -will add 25 GBit/s of backhaul capacity to help it serve its most remote mobile customers. OneWeb has more than 630 satellites in orbit today, with global coverage on track for the end of the year. OneWeb’s services are anticipated to begin in Australia mid-year, with worldwide service...

The metaverse at work - New study with partnership with  EY  around industrial and enterprise metaverses. ♟What is the metaverse, and is it just hype? The metaverse at work is based on an online survey conducted by EY, in partnership with  Nokia , of 860 business leaders in the US, Brazil, the UK, Germany, Japan, and South Korea across four key industries: automotive, industrial goods and manufacturing, transportation, supply chain and logistics, and power and utilities. To support EY findings, EY additionally conducted 22 in-depth interviews in March 2023 with topic area experts and industry leaders in metaverse across the four industries listed, plus interviews with leaders in public safety and defense. 📚 In South Korea generally there are demonstrated efforts at a public and private level to bring emerging technologies to businesses and consumers. Specifically in power and utilities, Daesung Private Equity, a subsidiary of the energy conglomerate Daesung Group formed ...
