Ericsson Releases Software Designed To Tap The Potential Of 5G SA
telecom.com, Monday, October 30,2023
Swedish kit vendor Ericsson has unveiled what it calls a 'software toolkit' that aims to enable premium 5G connectivity services.
The toolkit has four main components. Some new algorithms are designed to improve the performance of MIMO pairing and beamforming, which in turn should improve mid-band capacity. There are also improvements to RAN slicing such that it's delivered more quickly and reliably, improved low-latency capabilities, and tweaks to the 5G core that will allow subscribers to buy 'data boost' (a new service providing upsell capabilities for premium connectivity with alternative quality of service) and low-latency packages.
