Erickson Inc (OTCMKTS:EACIQ) has been revealed by numerous sources to be doing quite much in terms of developmental efforts but what has sparked high talk in long and short was the recent move that whose decision was arrived at in a board meeting.
The news striking the air waves currently is that the provider has resorted to kick-start a a trial of 5G network technology and virtual reality (VR) and this couldn’t have come at a better time considering the much anticipated for Indianapolis 500 motor race that be done in close partnership with Intel Corporation (NASDAQ:INTC) and Verizon Communications Inc (NYSE:VZ).
According to some top reliable sources, the high end providers are said to have taken advantage of the 5G technologies such as beam tracking and beam forming, wherein antenna arrays steer a beam to where a user is and that of course happens with quite minimal radio interference and of course there is the attainment of speeds that go beyond 6Gbps across Verizon’s 5G trial network.
In a video of the trial, the principle engineer for Verizon Wireless Dan Huffman said, “We have to deliver the fastest 5G connection possible. As our vehicles get smarter, our network also has to get smarter, and we’re doing exactly that with a 5G network capable of pinpointing your device and maximizing your bandwidth at all times.”
As a matter of fact, more than 180 beams had been targeted at the car on the Indy 500 racetrack, and this was revealed by Ericson in one of its blog posts. The prototype 5G antenna had been properly fitted in the vehicle’s roof.
The lead engineer on Ericsson’s Technology Team, Bill Goodman while addressing a press conference came out clearly to state that indeed they had lately been pushing beyond today’s technology with the super low latency and the multi-gigabit speeds that were as a matter of fact expected to enable Internet of Things and the new applications.
Erickson has over the years enjoyed leading as an example when it comes to attending to customers’ needs in haste. It looks forward to establishing even better customer relations and it knows that dream will come to reality through the provision of more enhanced services.
