Just as unprecedented UK temperatures hit new highs at the height of the holiday season, UK mobile operator Three UK has announced the switch on of next-generation 5G mobile connectivity in 86 new areas including rural and coastal locations across the UK like Dartmouth, Milford on Sea, Aberystwyth, Holywood and Irvine.
A study from global technology intelligence firm ABI Research is predicting that five years after the estimated commercial launch of 5G-Advanced networks in 2025, two years after they come in operation, as many as three-quarters of 5G base stations will be upgraded to the new standard.
UK-based production company Over Exposed has revealed that it turned to remote production tech specialist LiveU to create dynamic, viewer-engaging and highly cost-effective, 5G-based coverage of the recent Vitality London 10K run.
As it revealed a benchmark in 5G uplink speeds in a trial with Finnish operator Elisa and mobile chip giant Qualcomm, Nokia has demonstrated the power of next-generation mobile networks in supporting Ultra HD (UHD) and even 8K broadcasting in stadium environments.
