Verizon and Nokia have completed the industry’s first transmission of a 5G signal to a moving vehicle in a major step forward for the development of mobile broadband and connected car applications.
The two companies transmitted a 28GHz signal from two 5G New Radio (NR) radios on Nokia’s campus in New Jersey to a vehicle equipped with a receiver and kit to measure the signal.
The vehicle then travelled between the two radio sectors, handing off the signal seamlessly.
