Ericsson famous that its AIR 3229 dual-band radio allows e& UAE to ship 5G companies concurrently on each the two.6 GHz and three.5 GHz spectrum layers utilizing a single unit
Ericsson and Emirati-based operator e& UAE have accomplished what it claims to be one of many world’s first deployments of Ericsson’s dual-band Huge MIMO radio, AIR 3229, on e& UAE’s community.
In a launch, the Swedish vendor famous that this new deployment goals to spice up community efficiency, enhance community capability and cut back carbon footprint.
Ericsson famous that its AIR 3229 dual-band radio allows e& UAE to ship 5G companies concurrently on each the two.6 GHz and three.5 GHz spectrum layers utilizing a single unit. This makes it attainable to double the variety of time division duplex (TDD) provider elements from two to 4 in high-capacity 5G websites, Ericsson added.
The seller additionally highlighted that this answer enhances community efficiency whereas addressing challenges associated to website acquisition, set up complexity and tower load administration. Ericsson’s answer reduces energy consumption by 20% and minimizes the tower load by 25%.
Ericsson’s AIR 3229, which is a part of the Ericsson Radio System portfolio, is powered by the most recent technology of Ericsson Silicon.
Marwan Bin Shakar, SVP of entry community improvement at e& UAE, stated: “At e& UAE, we’re at all times seeking to undertake options that contribute to the evolution of our community whereas sustaining our sustainability goals. The introduction of Ericsson’s dual-band Huge MIMO radio helps our efforts to ship world-class connectivity and enhanced 5G experiences whereas optimizing power effectivity and lowering our environmental affect.”
Ekow Nelson, VP and head of International Buyer Unit for e& at Ericsson Center East and Africa, stated: “By integrating superior applied sciences into its 5G community, e& UAE is best positioned to fulfill the rising demand for high-performance, dependable connectivity throughout the UAE.”
Ericsson and e& UAE have not too long ago signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) for the collaborative exploration of 6G know-how, its use instances and future community evolution.
Ericsson famous that the 6G settlement with the Arab telco will function an early engagement for outlining the subsequent technology of future cell community evolution. It would additionally embody a sequence of technical discussions and engagements geared toward collectively exploring key 6G know-how ideas, added the seller.
Final month, e& UAE stated it had reached a brand new file velocity of 62 Gbps after it aggregated a number of carriers throughout high-band and low-band over simplified structure. The telco stated it used “cutting-edge” {hardware} and “refined” algorithms like MU-MIMO (multi-user, a number of enter, a number of output) to realize this 5G-A file velocity.
Ericsson and e& UAE had additionally not too long ago claimed the profitable implementation of Low Latency, Low Loss, Scalable Throughput (L4S), a time-critical communication know-how, in a 5G business community for the primary time within the Center East and Africa.
The know-how was demonstrated via a cloud gaming showcase carried out on e& UAE’s 5G Standalone business community on the sidelines of GITEX International 2024, the place L4S resulted in lowering the latency to lower than half and completely sustaining it inside a predefined vary, Ericsson stated.
The Swedish vendor famous that the introduction of L4S time-critical communication know-how marks a big milestone in e& UAE’s journey in direction of 5G-Superior, the place it should allow the Arab telco to complement its 5G capabilities, catering to time-sensitive use instances in industrial management and mobility automation.
