Context
OUR TAKE The successful pilot of interference sensing technology, which is part of Ericsson’s 5G Advanced portfolio, not only validates the technology’s effectiveness, but also lays a solid foundation for 5G networks to support more diverse and higher quality applications and services in the future. –Zora Lin, BTW reporter Australian telecom operator Optus has completed a pilot of Ericsson ‘s 5G interference sensing technology from Swedish equipment supplier Ericsson, which aims to improve network performance and provide customers with a better data experience through real-time dynamic perception and mitigation of inter-cell interference.
Evidence
Pending intelligence enrichment.
Analysis
With interference sensing enabled, in pilot tests across multiple users and cells deployed in commercial networks, user throughput improves by an average of 22%. Interference sensing technology is a software feature in Ericsson’s Massive MIMO 5G Advanced product portfolio that uses unique algorithms developed by Ericsson to detect and reduce cellular interference. According to Sibel Tombaz, head of product at Ericsson Networks, interference sensing can provide capacity gains of up to 40% over existing massive MIMO hardware with just a software upgrade.
