According to GSA's report titled "5G-Market Snapshot September 2022", the shared latest 5G data revealed that the coverage of 5G devices up by more than 43% in a year. The global impact of 5G promises to be significant, with 5G technology driving innovations, like smart city.
The concept of "Smart City" came out with a rise in demand and consumption of community interactions. A smart city uses information and communication technology (ICT) to improve operational efficiency, and shares information with the public to improve the quality of government services and residents welfares.
Urban centers across the world are embracing advanced technologies—artificial intelligence (AI), cloud computing, Internet of Things (IoT), and other digital solutions—as they enhance the lives of city residents, improve public infrastructures and support economic growth.
· MEC solution
Proposed by ETSI, Multi-Access Edge Computing (MEC) is a technology based on 5G evolution architecture and deeply integrates mobile access networks with internet services. MEC can utilize wireless access networks to provide services and cloud computing functions for telecom users nearby.
· Cloud computing
For the information of IPLOOK's MEC solution, it has practiced on the convergence of cloud-network, each with technologies like big data, artificial intelligence etc., and ultimately progress to the innovation in application and satisfaction from customers.
· NB-IoT Solution
Narrow Band-Internet of Things (NB-IoT) is a standards-based low power wide area (LPWA) technology developed to enable a wide range of new IoT devices and services. Smarter cities around the world are using IoT sensors to instantly capture and understand data, especially in remote monitoring and predictive maintenance tasks.
