SAN DIEGO, Nov. 16, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Today,
Qualcomm Technologies, Inc., a subsidiary of Qualcomm Incorporated
(NASDAQ: QCOM), ZTE, and China Mobile announced that they have
successfully achieved the world's first end-to-end 5G NR
Interoperability Data Testing (IoDT) system demonstrating a data
connection based on 3GPP R15 standard. Following the guidelines of
China Mobile, the IoDT connection demonstration took place at China
Mobile's 5G Joint Innovation Center, and utilized ZTE's 5G NR
pre-commercial base station and Qualcomm Technologies' 5G NR sub-6
GHz UE prototype. The end-to-end 5G NR system operates in 3.5GHz
and supports 100MHz bandwidth, compliant with the 3GPP Release-15
5G New Radio layer 1 framework — including the scalable OFDM
numerology, new advanced channel coding and modulation schemes, and
the low-latency self-contained slot structure. The end-to-end 5G NR
IoDT system is designed to efficiently achieve multi-gigabit per
second peak data rates at significantly lower air interface latency
than 4G networks. Implementation of 5G NR technologies will be
critical to meeting the increasing connectivity requirements of
emerging mobile broadband experiences such as streaming
high-definition video and immersive virtual/augmented reality in
the future, as well as enabling new high-reliability, low-latency
services for autonomous vehicles, drones and industrial control,
etc.
