ZTE announces breakthrough in 5G Research with MUSA
ZTE has announced a breakthrough in 5G research, with the company’s new Multi-User Shared Access (MUSA) technology demonstrating the capability to more than triple overload capacity of wireless access networks. Based on the simulation results, ZTE’s MUSA algorithm delivered an over 200% improvement in the overload radio, helping to transition networks for the era of the Internet of Things. MUSA is one of ZTE’s research projects on Pre5G, which use 5G-ready technologies to provide commercial 4G LTE end-users with 5G-like access experience. Other Pre5G technologies developed by ZTE include Massive MIMO, and Ultra-Dense Network (UDN). ZTE expects its Pre5G technologies will be commercially deployed in 2015. ZTE has also successfully tested its Pre5G UDN solution, which makes full use of the sophisticated Pico RRU hardware platform and Cloud Radio interference cancellation technology, allowing for denser deployment of base stations for operators to gain higher capacity density.
