InterDigital Receives Industry-Wide Recognition With Technology Award Win and Shortlistings
September 27 2018 - 8:00AM
The wireless industry’s awards season has seen enormous success for
InterDigital (NASDAQ: IDCC), a mobile technology research and
development company. InterDigital has won the “Best IoT/Smart Home
or 5G Technology” award as part of the annual CSI Awards.
InterDigital has also been shortlisted for a World Communications
Award in the “5G Leadership” category and for a Global
Telecoms Award in the “Advancing the Road to 5G” category.
The CSI Awards, run by CSI Magazine (Cable & Satellite
International Magazine) and which take place during the IBC trade
show in Amsterdam, recognize and reward innovation and excellence
in the cable, satellite, broadcast, IPTV, telco, broadband/OTT
video, and mobile TV sectors. InterDigital was selected from a
group of four finalists to win its category for its collaboration
in the European H2020 project, FLAME (Facility for Large-scale
Adaptive Media Experimentation). The award is also the company’s
first global recognition for technology in the increasingly
important video space.
Led by a consortium of twelve partners, FLAME seeks to transform
the user experience by delivering faster access to media and new
services through 5G. InterDigital was recognized for its
contribution to the project through its FLIPS (Flexible IP
Services) technology suite utilized in the service-based
architecture (SBA) platform which lies in the heart of the FLAME
platform.
It was InterDigital’s contribution to the 5G-Crosshaul project
that has also seen the company nominated in the World
Communications Awards (run by publisher Terrapinn) and Global
Telecoms Awards (run by Knect365). 5G-Crosshaul is a consortium of
20 of the world’s leading global technology players created to
develop a 5G-integrated backhaul and fronthaul transport network,
with the aim of supporting and managing the 5G network
architectures that will be crucial to 5G deployment.
Commenting on the win and the shortlistings, William J. Merritt,
President and CEO of InterDigital, said: “We are delighted to
receive this award from CSI as well as the other two nominations
from the World Communications Awards and the Global Telecoms
Awards. This is a testament to our contribution to the development
of 5G, and we are proud to see how impactful our collaboration with
leading industry partners has been for the roll-out of the next
generation of cellular.”
Winners for the World Communications Awards and Global Telecoms
Awards will be announced at the award ceremonies taking place in
London, UK, respectively on 31st October and 8th November.
