Virtualisation is a complex enough problem when dealing with one network, but what does it look like when carried out across 26, or even 40?

Finding the best use-cases is the biggest challenge facing Deutsche Telekom as it moves towards 5G, the operator’s new Chief Technology and Innovation Officer has said.

Orange’s Head of Innovation, Marketing & Technologies, claimed that “pieces of the puzzle” are coming together on 5G in an exclusive Mobile Europe interview at Mobile World Congress 2017.

The CTO of Telecom Italia (TIM) says the potential security threats around 5G are his “personal nightmare”.

The argument that 5G is over-hyped is becoming as prolific as the hype itself, but telcos do not seem to be taking heed, if this year’s Mobile World Congress (MWC) is anything to go by.

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.
