Verizon starts 5G field tests

2016-02-22 08:19:00| Telecompaper Headlines

(Telecompaper) Ericsson announced it's supplying 5G radio prototypes to Verizon for live field trials. In 5G field trials held in February, Ericsson's radio prototypes hit more than 10 Gbps peak throughput while supporting beamforming and beam tracking features. In the Verizon field trial, the Ericsson radios, mounted outdoors, delivered high-definition video streaming to devices located indoors, emulating a residential customer environment. Ericsson's prototypes, first introduced in November 2015, transmit signals using beamforming, which extends the reach of the high frequency bands and allows a user device to be serviced by multiple beams. Beam tracking then monitors the quality of connections available to the device and switches between beams to ensure the best user experience at all times. Ericsson is also testing the technology in Sweden, Japan and Korea.
