Chennai<\/a>: Over 300 people would be industry-ready and trained in 5G<\/a> technology with a Central-government funded '5G test bed' becoming fully operational by 2021, national coordinator of the project Bhaskar Ramamurthi has said.

Ramamurthi, a professor of communication technology and also IIT-Madras director, said the first version of the 'test bed' would be ready by 2019-end and the final version by 2021.

\"Already nearly 170 people are working on this. By the time we are through with this, 300 to 400 persons of various profiles will be trained in 5G so that they can join the (mobile network) operators,\" Ramamurthi told .

\"It is an ongoing process and the test bed would facilitate training more professionals to meet the demand,\" he added.

India is aiming to rollout 5G services simultaneously with other countries, unlike its previous networks 3G and 4G which were deployed much later.

As part of the effort, the Centre launched a three-year project 'Building an End-to-End 5G Test Bed' to advance innovation and research in 5G.

With a budget of Rs 224 crore, the programme has been awarded to IIT<\/a> Madras, IIT Hyderabad, IIT Delhi, IIT Kanpur, Centre of Excellence in Wireless Technology (CEWiT), Society for Applied Microwave Electronics Engineering and Research (SAMEER) and Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bangalore.

The test bed, located partly in all these institutions, envisages close collaboration between the universities and startups and create an ecosystem that closely resembles a real-world 5G deployment.

The final version of the test bed would be fully compliant, which means \"anyone's handset should work with anyone's base station (institutions),\" the director said.

The test bed is already collaborating with around 12 startups working on 5G.

Telecom Secretary Aruna Sundararajan has said auction of spectrum for 5G services is likely to happen in the later half of 2019.

Telecom minister Manoj Sinha has said government has approved financial grant for the project to set up Indigenous 5G Test Bed' in India by Indian Institutes of Technology and Indian Institute of Science.

The project entails setting up of an 'open 5G Test Bed' for Indian companies, academia and is likely to enhance the national capability in telecom technology and manufacturing and create Intellectual Property (IP), according to him.<\/body>","next_sibling":[{"msid":66137588,"title":"Reliance Jio inks fresh content deal with ZEE to take on Airtel, Voda-Idea","entity_type":"ARTICLE","link":"\/news\/reliance-jio-inks-fresh-content-deal-with-zee-to-take-on-airtel-voda-idea\/66137588","category_name":null,"category_name_seo":"telecomnews"}],"related_content":[],"msid":66137722,"entity_type":"ARTICLE","title":"India's 5G Testbed to be fully operational by 2021: Project coordinator","synopsis":"\n\nRamamurthi, a professor of communication technology and also IIT-Madras director, said the first version of the 'test bed' would be ready by 2019-end and the final version by 2021.","titleseo":"telecomnews\/indias-5g-testbed-to-be-fully-operational-by-2021-project-coordinator","status":"ACTIVE","authors":[],"analytics":{"comments":0,"views":1271,"shares":0,"engagementtimems":4671000},"Alttitle":{"minfo":""},"artag":"PTI","artdate":"2018-10-09 20:06:56","lastupd":"2018-10-09 20:06:56","breadcrumbTags":["5GCongress","5G","IIt","5g testbed","Industry","Chennai"],"secinfo":{"seolocation":"telecomnews\/indias-5g-testbed-to-be-fully-operational-by-2021-project-coordinator"}}" data-authors="[" "]" data-category-name="" data-category_id="" data-date="2018-10-09" data-index="article_1">

印度的5 g试验台由2021:全面运作项目协调员

教授Ramamurthi通信技术以及IIT-Madras主任说的第一个版本“试验台”将会在2019年准备——到2021年结束,最终版本。

钦奈:超过300人每年和训练5克技术与中央政府资助5 g测试床的全部完工,到2021年,国家项目的协调员Bhaskar Ramamurthi说。

教授Ramamurthi通信技术以及IIT-Madras主任说的第一个版本“试验台”将会在2019年准备——到2021年结束,最终版本。

“已经有近170人在这工作。我们用这个的时候,300到400人的各种配置文件将被训练5克,这样他们就可以加入移动网络运营商,“Ramamurthi告诉。

“这是一个持续的过程,测试床将有利于培养更多的专业人士来满足需求,”他补充道。

印度的目标是推出5 g服务同时与其他国家,不像之前的3 g和4 g网络部署之后。

作为努力的一部分,该中心启动了一项为期三年的项目“建立一个端到端的5 g测试床”推进创新和研究5克。

224卢比的预算,项目被授予IIT理工学院马德拉斯,IIT海德拉巴,IIT德里,坎普尔,无线技术的卓越中心(CEWiT),应用微波电子工程和研究学会(SAMEER)和印度科学研究所(印度),班加罗尔。

测试床,位于部分在所有这些机构,设想大学和企业之间的密切合作,创造一个生态系统,相似一个真实的5 g部署。

试验台的最终版本将完全兼容,这意味着“任何人的手机应与任何人的基站(机构),”导演说。

试验台已经与12左右的公司合作在5克。

电信部长阿鲁娜Sundararajan说拍卖的频谱5 g服务很可能发生在2019年以后。

电信部长Manoj Sinha说,政府已批准财政拨款项目设立自主5 g试验台”在印度的印度理工学院和印度科学研究所的。

项目需要设置“开放5 g试验台”的印度公司,学术界和可能会提高国家电信技术和制造能力和创造知识产权(IP),根据他。
