Nokia made headlines last month when it was found to have filed a patent for a new digital assistant.

Three UK is trialling small cells in south west London but its CTO has warned the economics continue to hold the technology back.

Building a viable product ecosystem is critical for the success of MulteFire technology, the Chairman of the Alliance's board has said following the release of its first specification.

The introduction of NB-IoT will not affect LoRa, a Proximus executive has claimed, with the latter technology enduring thanks to its low power consumption and unlicensed spectrum positioning.

Reality has bitten for operators and their 5G strategies, the GSMA has claimed, as it urged governments to work on preparing for next generation networks immediately.

Operators are only "scratching the surface" of NB-IoT's potential, the CTO of Telenor Connexion has said, as the operator gears up for a trial of smart parking.

The connected vehicle market will ultimately split in two, according to Vodafone, with the cars developing as a service platform on one hand, and the era of autonomous vehicles emerging on the other.

Operators should unite to offer quality of service (QoS) between networks, to enable certain customers and services to get preferential connectivity, a Deutsche Telekom executive has said.

Telia Company's new connected car solution is aiming to be a springboard for second-hand cars to take advantage of full mobility.

Telefónica and Huawei have developed a new proof-of-concept for a 5G radio access network (RAN) that transfers the logistics of cellular handover from the mobile device to the network.

The increasing ubiquity of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning is extending beyond search engines and finance to telecoms, as operators look to new systems to improve their processes, potentially reinventing how networks are built and deployed in the process.

Virtualisation is the latest area the Small Cells Forum has turned its attention to, as its Chair said that telcos' should not be blamed for fragmentation in the move to reach 5G. 

The Wi-Fi Alliance has begun certifying WiGig products as it looks to show that Wi-Fi technology can also offer gigabit speeds over short distances.

EE will lose the technological credibility it has built up over LTE if it fails to be first and best with 5G in the UK, its senior technical team has said.
