Union Minister for Railways, Communications, Electronics, and Information Technology Ashwini Vaishnaw made the first 5G call on a trial network set up at IIT Madras in May month using indigenously-developed technology.
An end-to-end 5G Testbed encompassing all the major subsystems of a 5G Network has been developed by eight leading academic (IIT Madras, IIT Kanpur, IIT Bombay, IIT Delhi, IIT Hyderabad and Indian Institute of Science, Banglore) and R&D (SAMEER and CEWIT) institutes of India. The project is a unique collaborative effort of a pan-Indian multi-institutional team which has enhanced national capability in telecom technology. The 224.01 crore project was funded by the Department of Telecom, Government of India for a period of three and a half years. Several industry players and startups in India were project partners in this initiative. In recent times, an exponential evolution has been noticed in the area of wireless communication regarding the transition of 1G to 4G. The major purpose behind this research was the necessities of very low latency and great bandwidth (Dangi et al., 2021). Mobile network traffic resumes developing at a very rapid rate because of the novel mobile technologies, such as cloud gaming, high resolution video streaming and virtual reality applications.
