Reliance Jio and Qualcomm, along with Radisys Corporation, have developed an open and interoperable interface-compliant architecture-based 5G solution.
According to Reliance industries annual report, Jio is accelerating the rollout of digital platforms and the next generation 5G stack. As a part of this push, the companies have developed an open and interoperable interface-compliant architecture-based 5G solution with a virtualised RAN (vRAN),
It further highlighted that India is at the forefront of a global digital revolution. This 5G solution will accelerate the development and rollout of indigenous 5G network infrastructure and services in India.
5G brings ultra-low latency and ultra-high bandwidth enabling unprecedented experiences and services and unique applications in private networks.
Qualcomm and Jio have successfully tested 5G solutions in India, achieving a 1Gbps milestone on the Jio 5G solution, pointed out Mukesh Ambani, MD and Chairman.
The 5G RAN Platform has crossed the 1 Gbps milestone on the Jio 5G core network and 5G smartphones, adding that the feat not only underlines Jio’s 5G credentials but also signifies the entry of Jio and India into the gigabit 5G NR product portfolio.
Jio has infused over USD 50 billion investment since its inception to create the largest and advanced digital and connectivity ecosystem in India, with a wide range of apps and platforms.
In growing its ecosystem to make India the world’s premier digital society and economy, Jio is not just enhancing the experience of its existing 426 million customers but is also accelerating the transition towards digital for the next 300 million mobility users, 50 million homes and 50 million micro, small and medium businesses, according to the report.
Jio has also completed the testing of indigenously developed end-to-end Jio 5G Radio and Core Network Solution.
Over the next few years, Jio would focus on creating a “robust” wireline network across the country, offering high-speed connectivity and a bouquet of digital services to every home and enterprise.
In India, 5G is expected to create an economic impact of 1 trillion by 2035 and the implementation of 5G and other related technologies will help in accelerating the process of digital communication.
5G will lead to a rapid expansion of the flow of information technology across education, manufacturing, health care, agriculture and financial and social sectors.
