LG Uplus aims to complete 5G rollout to big cities in 2019
NGMN, WBA join forces on 5G/Wi-Fi convergence
The NGNM Alliance and Wireless Broadband Alliance (WBA) have joined forces to drive the convergence of multi-technology radio access and core networks.
The two industry bodies have published a joint report into emerging opportunities and use cases arising from the convergence of 3GPP 5G and Wi-Fi standards, driven by the ever-enhancing capabilities of licensed and unlicensed wireless technologies.
According to the report, convergence at a network level between 5G and Wi-Fi is important to ensuring that the complementary capabilities of both RANs can be combined to provide seamless network services.
The 3GPP has already developed specifications to ensure tight integration of 3GPP with non-3GPP radio technologies such as Wi-Fi, and the in-development 3GPP Release 16 enhances capabilities for Wi-Fi integration in 5G networks.more>>
