Samsung and Qualcomm Work to Deliver Industry Leading 5G NR Small Cell Infrastructure
To effectively scale 5G NR networks, the industry is expected to increasingly rely on small cells as foundational building blocks.
HONG KONG, Oct. 23, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Qualcomm Technologies, Inc., a subsidiary of Qualcomm Incorporated (NASDAQ: QCOM), today announced with Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., they are working together to develop 5G small cells – opening the door for massive 5G network speed, capacity, coverage and ultra-low latency. To effectively scale 5G NR networks, the industry is expected to increasingly rely on small cells as foundational building blocks. Given the propagation characteristics of higher frequencies in sub-6 and mmWave bands that will be used in 5G NR networks, small cell solutions are designed to support delivery of uniform 5G experiences, especially indoors where most data is consumed. In order to address cost and form factor requirements for a wide range of 5G NR deployment scenarios, service providers, enterprises, factories and other stakeholders are expected to growingly depend on 5G NR small cell solutions, and on the suppliers able to deliver them. Mobile operators across the world including United States, Japan and Korea are all expected to deploy small cells as a catalyst to support 5G-class experiences.
