National Instruments announced that it’s working with Nokia’s Networks business to collaborate on advanced research related to fifth generation (5G) wireless technologies such as exploring peak data rates and cell-edge rates in excess of 10 Gbps and 100 Mbps, respectively. Together they plan to increase 5G wireless network capacity and data throughput.
By using NI’s integrated hardware and software baseband platform, Nokia plans to expedite its research and rapidly demonstrate the viability of high-frequency millimeter wave as an option for 5G radio access technology. Their experimental 5G Proof-of-Concept system will be implemented using NI’s LabVIEW and PXI baseband modules, which is a state-of-art experimental system for rapid prototyping of 5G.
