INSPIRATION
5G technology is the next big upgrade for telecommunication networks and devices. It provides a much higher speed,than previous cellular broadband network standards, and,most importantly, has much lower latency. Latency is very important for cloud gaming as well as VR content streaming. Massive machine-type communications (mMTC) that 5G networks provide enable the creation of high-density IoT
networks, from IIoT to smart homes. Such wide-spread applications make 5G one of the most important upcoming technology trends for the telecommunication sector.
US-based startup Aarna Networks provides a multi-cluster orchestration platform – AMCOP. AMCOP automatically manages cloud infrastructure and connected networks, such as Edge networks. AMCOP supports 5G radio access networks (RAN), and 5G Core (5GC) orchestration, as well as network slicing, data analytics, and self-organizing networks (SON).
Also, AMCOP is built on vendor-agnostic open-source software, helping businesses optimize their expenditures on network infrastructure and increase security.
Simnovus is an Indian startup, building efficient UE simulators for 5G networks. Based on software-defined radio (SDR) technology, the startup allows transforming traditional x86 hardware into a UE simulator. This agile and cost-effective solution is suitable for testing telecommunication equipment and developers of such equipment. The UE simulator provides testing with realistic patterns of traffic for different network technologies, extensive logging, and elaborate statistics. Further, the simulator’s licencing supports up to 1000 devices.
