2 May 2017
Irving, Texas - Nokia is to play an integral role in T-Mobile's plans to launch
nationwide 5G coverage in the United States by 2020.
Forthcoming 5G networks will bring many benefits to service providers and
consumers, with exponential increases in bandwidth and massive throughput, along
with advancements in vertical industries and new entrants - just a few of the
myriad possibilities of these next-generation networks.
T-Mobile's announced plans to utilize all of its spectrum resources align
strongly with Nokia's strategy of multi-radio platforms and advanced antenna
technologies. Specifically, this will bring 5G radio air interface improvements
(spectral efficiency in particular) to low bands such as 600MHz, thus allowing
for enhanced coverage benefits. Additionally, Nokia will look to enable the 5G
network capabilities where 600MHz spectrum is the preferred coverage layer.
One of the key benefits of 5G is enhanced mobile broadband that will allow users
to consume content when and where they desire. Nokia, along with T-Mobile, will
provide a multi-layer, cross-spectrum blueprint for how the networks of the
future will come into existence.
Marc Rouanne, president of Mobile Networks business group for Nokia,
said: "Nokia and T-Mobile share a vision of innovating in mobile networks to
deliver real benefits to consumers. This collaboration to maximize spectrum is a
very exciting development, and is a strong example of Nokia's commitment to
supporting its customers' ambitions to create new capabilities to make 5G a
reality, connecting everything to everything."
