Thursday, November 24, 2022

5GC software plays a central role in controlling cell phone networks, but the need for domestic production and cost reduction represents ongoing challenges to making related technologies, like private 5G, a reality.

Key Points: 
  • 5GC software plays a central role in controlling cell phone networks, but the need for domestic production and cost reduction represents ongoing challenges to making related technologies, like private 5G, a reality.
  • Combining multiple private 5G networks and 5G services provided by major telecommunications carriers will ultimately make it possible to deliver more versatile communication environments than individual private 5G networks alone.
  • Going forward, it is hoped that industry-academia-government collaboration will lead to the development of practical-level communication devices and the resolution of issues.
  • This makes it suitable for environments where many small-scale 5G systems, such as private 5G, are to be built.
