Nokia is looking to showcase its 5G roadmap and unveil technologies that will “be the basis of the next generation of dynamic networks”, the company has said.

At the upcoming IEEE Globecom 2016 event, Nokia will demonstrate how operators can maximise resources such as spectrum to deliver the vastly increased capacity and speed required to serve the expanded ‘fabric’ of connected people, machines and devices expected in the 5G era.

The company will be using its latest 5G-ready AirScale radio portfolio and commercial introduce 4.5G Pro to show various complementary innovations that will form the basis of dynamic, intelligent and sustainable 5G networks of the future.

Nokia Bell Labs will present its Intelligent Traffic Steering highlighting how operators can deliver and dramatically enhance the user experience by leveraging multiple access technologies simultaneously to optimise traffic paths.

Visitors will also be able to see a breakthrough in small cell technology, the Nokia Bell Labs F-Cell, which will allow operators to deliver additional network capacity, lower latency and lower network power consumption through greater flexibility, efficiency and deployment optimisation.

Hossein Moiin, Chief Technology Officer of the Mobile Networks at Nokia, said: “We have defined a technology path to 5G that will allow operators to deliver enhancements in capacity and speed and take advantage of the new possibilities created by the connected world. While mobile broadband demand will continue to be driven by use of ultra-high definition video, the ever-growing number of connected machines as well as the need for low-latency and ultra-reliable networks will drive the creation of new opportunities for mobile communications networks.”
