Ceragon to Showcase its 5G Wireless Backhaul Technologies Aimed at Improving Operational Efficiency and Enhancing End Customers' Quality of Experience at Mobile World Congress 2016
Ceragon's microwave and millimeterwave backhaul technologies will enable communication service providers to prepare for next generation 5G networks
LITTLE FALLS, New Jersey, February 11, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --
Ceragon Networks Ltd. [http://www.ceragon.com ] (NASDAQ: CRNT
[https://www.ceragon.com/index.php?option=com_k2&view=itemlist&layout=category&task=category&id=48&Itemid=314&lang=en ]
), the #1 wireless backhaul specialist, today announced that
it will showcase its 5G wireless backhaul technologies at Mobile World Congress 2016, in
Barcelona, Spain. Commercial offering of 5G services in developed markets is expected to
begin by 2020 and is expected to bring exponential growth in network capacity as well as
the number and types of connected devices. 5G technology is also anticipated to enable a
wide variety of new services, including IoT and M2M, changing the way networks are
designed and built. A key requirement to meet 5G service demands is a flexible wireless
backhaul infrastructure which meets more stringent performance, reliability, and
operational efficiency targets. Ceragon Networks is developing robust technologies to meet
the need for 100 times higher capacity at cell sites, at least five times denser cell-site
grids, with large scale street-level deployments, network virtualization and optimization,
as well as support for mission critical applications.
Powered by Ceragon's multicore technologies which achieve faster time to market with
higher performance at affordable costs by using in-house designed system on chips, which
are integrated into Ceragon's wireless backhaul solutions, Ceragon's solutions are being
optimized for 5G capacity, latency, service and network availability targets.
"Ceragon's strategic investment in vertically integrated solutions, developing
advanced microwave and millimeterwave systems on chips and integrating those into complete
products, will allow communication service providers to meet their business objectives as
their networks evolve to deliver 5G services," said Ira Palti, president and CEO of
Ceragon. "Supporting our customers today in their 4G deployments and their evolution from
3G to 4G, Ceragon is committed to delivering solutions that enable its customers to
achieve the highest value both in operational efficiency and customer experience, while
ensuring peace of mind by offering a highly reliable network able to evolve over time."
Ceragon's wireless backhaul technologies will enable communication service providers
to:
1) Deliver up to 10Gbps backhaul to cell sites using ultra-wide microwave frequency
channels with LoS 4x4 MIMO technology at 6 - 42GHz, and millimeterwave compact radios
- overcoming spectrum shortages and reducing site acquisition and related costs.
2) Deploy cellular base stations and small cells exactly where needed, in any deployment
scenario, by eliminating backhaul constraints caused by lack of spectrum and inability
to reuse the microwave spectrum channels. Ceragon's Advanced Frequency Reuse
technology allows for reusing frequency channels twice as often as otherwise possible,
ensuring the location of the cellular site is not compromised, that the cost of
backhaul is as low as possible, and that the quality of service for customers is not
compromised.
3) Overcome microwave spectrum congestion by using multiband carrier aggregation of
microwave and millimeterwave spectrum with Ceragon's unique Multicarrier Adaptive
Bandwidth Control technology. This technology meets capacity requirements,
intelligently balancing traffic over microwave and millimeterwave channels and
achieving service availability and reliability targets, while avoiding expensive
trenching of fiber where it is not needed.
4) Enable fast deployment of highly dense cellular base stations and small cell grids by
use of Ceragon's multicore MIMO technology for Non Line of Sight use cases at 6 -
42GHz. Developed by Ceragon, this unique multicore MIMO technology will allow high
performance, predictable capacity in NLoS conditions, while simplifying service
rollout, eliminating alternative backhaul costs and accelerate revenue generation.
5) Adopt cost reduced network architecture with Cloud RAN by use of ultra-high capacity
wireless backhaul (fronthaul) delivering 2.5Gbps to 10Gbps digital signaling between
cloud baseband units and remote radio heads.
6) Ensure optimal use of network resources using Software Defined networks (SDN)
technologies with open interfaces for simple and quick network integration, overcoming
barriers of the current wireless networks eco system. Ceragon's SDN wireless backhaul
technologies optimize resources by performing dynamic spectrum allocation, intelligent
power consumption management, and dynamic service reroute to increase operational
efficiency, maintain high network reliability and enhance customers' quality of
experience.
7) Enable simplified evolution from 4G to 5G networks using IP-20 Platform technologies
and capabilities, allowing maximum use of the Ceragon 4G wireless backhaul investments
made today.
