The role, enhancements, and practical applications of MIMO (Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) technology—in 3GPP Release 18

Release 18, frozen in functionality around late 2023 to mid-2024, marks the transition from foundational 5G New Radio (NR) to 5G-Advanced. MIMO has been a cornerstone of NR since Release 15; Rel-18 continues its evolution with targeted refinements rather than a wholesale redesign, focusing on higher spectral efficiency, better support for advanced devices, multi-TRP coordination,… Read More The role, enhancements, and practical applications of MIMO (Multiple-Input Multiple-Output) technology—in 3GPP Release 18

Understanding the factors affecting the Latency in 5G Networks

Latency in 5G Networks is one of the most transformative aspects of fifth-generation mobile technology, enabling applications that demand near-instantaneous responsiveness. While 5G is often celebrated for its multi-gigabit speeds, low latency is equally critical—sometimes more so—for real-time, mission-critical, and immersive experiences. This response explores latency comprehensively: its definition, targets, technical enablers, real-world performance, influencing… Read More Understanding the factors affecting the Latency in 5G Networks

Understanding the VoNR (Voice over New Radio) and its benefits

VoNR (Voice over New Radio), also known as Vo5G or Voice over 5G Standalone (Vo5GSA), is the native voice calling solution for 5G networks. It delivers voice (and often video/SMS) services entirely over the 5G New Radio (NR) access network and 5G Core (5GC), using IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) for session control, just as VoLTE… Read More Understanding the VoNR (Voice over New Radio) and its benefits
