Standalone non-public networks: Modernising wireless production
Paper 410: The strengths and challenges of deploying new 5G technology following a trial at the Coronation of King Charles III.
New spectrum opportunities that facilitate the deployment of 5G Standalone Non- Public Networks are of increasing interest to broadcasters. Modern IP workflows can integrate seamlessly with such networks and the technology is finding an increasing number of applications for wireless production. The cost of 5G network equipment is reducing and a single 5G deployment can potentially replace a plethora of traditional wireless production equipment.
This paper explores the characteristics of current 5G implementations, detailing the strengths and challenges of deploying this new technology. For wireless cameras, many alternative streaming technologies can be used and the trade-offs between reliability, quality, network load and latency are explored. The 麻豆社鈥檚 experience of trialling the technology at the Coronation of HM King Charles III is discussed.
