"The role of W-band millimetre wave radio systems in next generation mobile networks backhaul" The role of W-band millimetre wave radio systems in next generation mobile networks backhaul – Traffic on mobile networks is growing at an incredible pace, forecasts suggest a 12 times increase by 2018 and a 22 times increase by 2030, supporting this volume of traffic will require new and innovative radio access and backhaul solutions. In parallel with supporting greater traffic volumes mobile operators will implement new network architectures while delivering every greater network availability and reliability, mesh based backhaul will play a key role in these future ultra-reliable networks. This talk will explore the drivers for change, review evolving network architectures and discuss future millimetre wave backhaul solutions. |
