Ericsson Uplink Booster brochure Ericsson Uplink Booster – in all our Massive MIMO mid-band radios- is a highly innovative solution based on a superior architecture and sophisticated algorithms to maximize uplink performance via extended coverage, increased user throughput and higher spectral efficiency. At the heart of Ericsson Uplink Booster, it is our Ericsson Silicon. The Swisscom 5G story If service providers do not change their way of working, they will find it difficult to earn money from 5G. Through the Joint Mobile Group with Ericsson, we now play an even bigger role in setting the pace of innovation and formulating this new 5G ecosystem. This is the way of working and it is helping us to develop revenue opportunities in segments that we did not think would be possible. Enabling time-critical services over 5G 5G and edge computing are cornerstones in enabling time-critical applications, in areas like AR, VR and cloud gaming. In this joint joint white paper with DT, we present how the method of Low Latency Low Loss Scalable throughput (L4S) supports high data rate applications with requirements for low and stable latency. Far EasTone outperforming competitors in Taiwan´s 5G network Ericsson and Far EasTone Telecommunications (FET) have partnered over two decades in Taiwan. The successful 5G launch in mid-2020 marked a new chapter for both companies. As FET’s solid 5G vendor, Ericsson has delivered outstanding performance to the service provider. Driving 5G innovation for urban public transport Rapid urban growth is intensifying the demand for sustainable public transport solutions that can be scaled quickly. Urban ICT Arena, Keolis, Telia, Intel and Ericsson have demonstrated that 5G and control towers can facilitate the safe introduction of automated transport in complex and demanding urban areas.
