When in areas as remote and beautiful as Virgin, Utah it can sometimes be difficult to get a reliable phone signal. So how did T-Mobile and drone logistics and delivery company, <a href="https://www.droneup.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">DroneUp</a>, manage to <a href="https://nam02.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2FJohnSaw%2Fstatus%2F1583495600242184192%3Fs%3D20%26t%3DurXVIeizkxnDMvl6qa8UsQ&data=05%7C01%7CClint.Patterson28%40T-Mobile.com%7C8a4f8643b4034db2fb0008dac9a64b0a%7Cbe0f980bdd994b19bd7bbc71a09b026c%7C0%7C0%7C638044013311512671%7CUnknown%7CTWFpbGZsb3d8eyJWIjoiMC4wLjAwMDAiLCJQIjoiV2luMzIiLCJBTiI6Ik1haWwiLCJXVCI6Mn0%3D%7C7000%7C%7C%7C&sdata=r3oPf7aZMcFn60nklnmAGoO3tkftpNWVdyKznYITDXI%3D&reserved=0" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">deliver fresh cans of Red Bull</a> to Rampage athletes responsible for creating the courses they’ll ride down?

core/paragraph

Simple, with help from <a href="https://www.elsight.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Elsight</a> and our Halo connectivity system.

At Elsight, we provide software and hardware technology solutions to facilitate reliable network connections and our Halo system can aggregate multiple LTE and 5G links from multiple carriers and prioritize those links in the aggregation tunnel. This means we can outfit a drone to receive signals from different carriers and prioritize which one we want to use. If there happens to be a gap in the network on one of the links, Halo can switch to a new signal to ensure the drone doesn’t go down. This layer of backup is critical in for all types of drone flights and becomes even more necessary as beyond visual line of sight (BVLOS) drone operations get closer to being commercialized. 

Halo also monitors and records traffic usage (i.e. how much data was sent/received from each link), and we can record the signal strength from all the modems with timestamps, 3D GNSS positioning, packet loss levels, and latency measurements which are all vital pieces of information to the team piloting the drone. 

In the build up to the mission in Utah, we worked closely with the T-Mobile and DroneUp teams to test T-Mobile’s 5G network on Standalone (SA) and Non-Standalone (NSA) 5G across multiple bands and found that T-Mobile’s 5G SA network locked on band N71 (600MHz) proved to be the easy choice to complete the mission. 

So how did T-Mobile’s 5G SA network perform and why was it preferred over LTE and other carriers? 

To start, it’s important to highlight what 5G SA is. 5G by itself isn’t just an improvement of the radio protocol, but it introduces a whole new paradigm in cellular network design and brings the network core to the edge. In this instance, the drone flying the mission. 5G SA takes this a step further because it has its own dedicated core, meaning it doesn’t share radio or network resources with LTE users, a major strength when running applications that require low latency, like drones. T-Mobile happens to have the nation’s only nationwide 5G SA network and is one of the main reasons why the drone was able to perform so well. In fact, we were even able to demonstrate a direct connection between the drone and mobile ground control station over IPv6. 

The second piece of the pie revolves around band n71. Drone operations are highly recommended over this band thanks to its ability to separate uplink and downlink bands for simultaneous transmission, which is extremely helpful when flying a drone in real-time. Again, it just so happens that T-Mobile the only U.S. provider supporting n71 at 600MHz with its nationwide Extended Range 5G. Its range can even be extended up to 30% when in 5G SA only mode – meaning even more areas are covered in low-band 5G – which is critical to flights in rural areas like the one we performed at Rampage. 

During the event, Halo carried three modems: a 5G SA modem with T-Mobile (priority-1), an LTE modem with T-Mobile (priority-2), and an LTE modem connected to alternative cellular providers (priority-3). The icing on the cake? Using radio frequency recordings throughout the flight, we saw that all operations only ever used the T-Mobile 5G SA modem without ever needing to use the backup links. This means that even in rural Utah, T-Mobile’s 5G SA network performed so well the drone never needed to switch to the backup networks, with Halo experiencing zero drops and disconnects. 

What makes Halo and the flights performed at Rampage even more special is how we were able to establish an encrypted tunnel from the drone to the cloud server which we used for both command and control over T-Mobile 5G. 

T-Mobile’s excellent 5G network was the clear choice for this deployment and its 5G SA network executed the deployment perfectly, carrying all the data to and from the Halo system and the ground control station with ultra-low latency. T-Mobile’s network range and stability created the unique conditions necessary for Halo’s RF-over-5G, where local routing and ultra-low latency create ideal conditions for drone flights which were easily achieved over the 5G SA network.  

Commercial drone delivery technologies are quickly emerging and T-Mobile’s 5G network and our Halo system easily showcased how the Un-carrier has the reach and ability to perform unmanned aerial vehicle operations – especially in rural areas and even more so now that <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/news/network/t-mobile-lights-up-standalone-ultra-capacity-5g-nationwide" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">T-Mobile just upgraded it's Ultra-Capacity to include 5G SA nationwide.</a> The potential this creates offers an exhilarating prospect for future Halo deployments, especially when BVLOS operations become the norm.

Why would Canada’s leading robotics research and development company choose T-Mobile for U.S. operations? It’s a good question, and we’ve got a pretty good answer.

First though, you’ll need some background about us.

At <a href="https://indrorobotics.ca" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">InDro Robotics</a>, we build, deploy and sell robots. We and our clients then operate them remotely, sometimes from very great distances, using cellular networks.

Many of our products are ground robots, built for inspecting remote assets. For example, our Sentinel robot has been designed from the ground up for deployment at places like electrical substations – remote facilities which are not staffed, but which require regular inspections.

Recently, Indro Robotics took Sentinel down to Lenox, Massachusetts <a href="https://indrorobotics.ca/2022/08/25/putting-sentinel-through-its-paces-at-epri/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">for an interesting mission</a>. We had been invited by <a href="https://www.epri.com" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">EPRI</a> – the Electric Power Research Institute, a non-profit energy research and development organization. One of its missions is to optimize processes – and then pass along its results to hundreds of members in the electrical energy sector.

For this mission, EPRI asked us to bring Sentinel to its own electrical substation test facility. It wanted to put several inspection robots through their paces in a real-world environment.

In fact, EPRI’s substation has been purpose-built for such testing, and even has the ability to create ‘rain’ via an elevated system of water pipes. There would be gauges to read (even when wet – thankfully, Sentinel has wipers that can clean off the camera), arcing to detect, and even widespread electro-magnetic interference. Most of these Sentinel tests, which took place over the course of a week (both day and night), would be manually operated. But it also had some autonomous runs.

On nearly all missions, however, there’s a human being behind the scenes. Sitting at a computer console, the operator manually drives Sentinel remotely, monitoring the mission and checking to ensure operations are running smoothly.

The communications between robot and operator take place over cellular networks, allowing us to run missions from hundreds – even thousands – of miles away. While this can be done over 4G (LTE), the gold standard is a robust and reliable 5G network. This allows for near zero-latency during operations and provides the bandwidth for streaming dense data back to mission control (and even directly to the Cloud).

To give you an idea of the type of data we need to compute and send back to operators, here are just some examples of what Sentinel can do:

core/list

You already know Sentinel is operated and monitored remotely over cellular networks. It’s critical that these are robust and reliable networks, as we are always looking for dense data throughput with near-zero latency when operating our robots and drones. We simply can’t afford to have network issues or dead zones during deployment. And, increasingly, our work is taking InDro robots to the United States. Because of this, we selected T-Mobile as our American network of choice for the Lenox operations.

T-Mobile’s excellent 5G network was the clear choice for this mission-critical deployment. It performed flawlessly, carrying all the data from Sentinel to our monitors in near real-time. The test proved T-Mobile’s 5G reach to perform critical operations in rural areas. While this was just one test, the potential T-Mobile’s network offers is an exciting prospect for future U.S. deployments.

Sentinel is but one of many robots developed by Indro Robotics. We are even now operating quadruped robots – the ones that look like dogs – over cellular connections. We also operate flying drones via cellular, enabling missions with a high degree of complexity piloted remotely by an operator with a computer.

As we continue to deploy in the U.S., we’re confident our operations will be served well both by our robots – and by T-Mobile. In the end, it’s all about data for us – and T-Mobile’s 5G network delivers.

What’s the news: T-Mobile, Pano AI and Portland General Electric are deploying 5G-connected cameras to enable AI-powered active wildfire detection that identifies the first sign of wildfires so emergency crews can respond before they grow out of control.

Why it matters: Early detection is key to stopping a wildfire before it spreads, but with traditional methods identifying and assessing a fire can take hours, delaying the response. With T-Mobile’s far-reaching, high capacity 5G network, Pano AI can collect and analyze vast amounts of data in near real time to detect, confirm and pinpoint new ignitions in the critical early minutes of a wildfire, enabling it to be contained before it endangers lives and property.

Who it’s for: Emergency managers, first responders and anyone potentially impacted by wildfires.

BELLEVUE, Wash. — September 21, 2022 — Wildfires can have devastating consequences, threatening lives and property. And they’re a growing problem, burning nearly <a href="https://www.wri.org/insights/global-trends-forest-fires">twice</a> as much forested land today as they did just 20 years ago. 5G can help change that. T-Mobile (NASDAQ: TMUS) announced today that it has teamed up with Pano AI – a disaster preparedness technology solutions provider – and Portland General Electric to deploy 5G-connected cameras that enable AI-powered active wildfire detection near Portland, Oregon to help identify the first sign of wildfires and ultimately stop them before they spread.

core/embed

Pano AI – a participant of the <a href="https://5goilab.com/">5G Open Innovation Lab</a>, which T-Mobile cofounded – deploys ultra-high-definition cameras and its proprietary Artificial Intelligence (AI) platform to constantly scan for and identify wildfires in the very early stages. The massive bandwidth and far reach of T-Mobile’s 5G network allows Pano AI to gather extremely high-quality video in at-risk areas and send vast amounts of data to Pano AI’s command center in real time, maximizing the effectiveness of its AI platform and spotting potentially dangerous situations quickly and reliably.

 “This is why we’ve been focused on building a 5G network for all – not just in densely-populated areas but across the country, into rural communities and remote environments as well,” said Neville Ray, President of Technology at T-Mobile. “Pano AI has developed an innovative solution that is poised to save lives and limit the devastation often caused by wildfires, and it’s both humbling and rewarding that T-Mobile’s 5G network is uniquely positioned to help bring it to life.”

“Firefighters are looking for ways to detect, confirm and pinpoint a fire within minutes, and modern technology makes that very possible,” said Sonia Kastner, CEO of Pano AI. “Wildfire detection is especially important in rural and remote areas, and thanks to the long range of T-Mobile’s 5G network, we can bring Pano AI’s solution to some of the most vulnerable locations across the country.”

Last year, nearly 60,000 wildfires burned more than seven million acres of land in the U.S., according to the <a href="https://www.predictiveservices.nifc.gov/intelligence/2021_statssumm/intro_summary21.pdf">National Interagency Fire Center</a>. And <a href="https://www.wri.org/insights/global-trends-forest-fires">data shows</a> that these fires are getting worse over time, due to more severe winds and drier conditions. As the first company to offer a fully-managed solution for active wildfire detection using AI, Pano AI has made it their mission to combat wildfires by providing intelligence that leverages the latest technology, including 5G. Pano AI works with utilities, governments, fire authorities, forestry companies, and private land owners to deploy their solution. Portland General Electric is the first to utilize Pano AI on T-Mobile’s 5G network.

“We put the safety of our customers, employees and communities first and this type of innovation allows us to do that by monitoring and detecting wildfires faster and more reliably than other methods,” said Larry Bekkedahl, senior vice president of Advanced Energy Delivery at Portland General Electric. “The stakes are high when it comes to detecting wildfires and we need access to breakthrough technologies and reliable connectivity, which both Pano AI and T-Mobile bring to the table.”

T-Mobile is the leader in 5G with the country’s largest, fastest and most reliable 5G network. Covering more than 97% of Americans across 1.8 million square miles – most of which are in rural America – T-Mobile has the ideal 5G network with the breadth and capacity to meaningfully support Pano AI’s active wildfire detection service. T-Mobile’s 5G network is connecting Pano AI cameras in the Portland area today, and the companies plan to expand their collaboration to more areas across the country.

Last week I joined industry analyst Chetan Sharma for a fireside chat at his annual <a href="https://www.mobilefutureforward.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">Mobile Future Forward</a> event to discuss 5G and the golden era for consumers. This year’s event focused on the Quantumverse, the next generation of interconnected technologies like 5G, Edge, Blockchain and the Metaverse that are changing the way people interact with one another.

Anyone who knows me will tell you that I, and T-Mobile, have been laser focused on 5G for a LONG time. So, I was delighted when Chetan asked me to join him to talk about what comes next. In short, while 5G is already delivering meaningful benefits, the best of 5G is yet to come.

Ten years ago, I would not have predicted that T-Mobile would become a global leader in the industry. But that’s where Chetan started the dialog and he wanted to know how T-Mobile feels about leading the industry in the years to come.

But Chetan and I didn’t meet to only discuss T-Mobile’s tremendous growth. We quickly started looking at the future of 5G for consumers, as well as how they are already using it today.

For some time now, we’ve seen a dramatic increase in how customers leverage our network to get the most out of their 5G experience. On Magenta Max, our customers each use an average of 39 GB of data every month! In fact, 5G users stream 2x more video, spend 1.5x more time on social media and play mobile games 3x more often compared to their 4G LTE counterparts.

Mobile is no doubt the most common 5G use case, but there is so much more to come. So where else will 5G take consumers?

We’ve been heads down building our nationwide network so that everyone, including those in small towns and rural communities, have access to reliable and affordable internet through Home Internet. Home broadband service is and will be a major component of the 5G future.

We’ve always taken pride in keeping customers connected while they’re on the move, and now fixed wireless brings broadband connectivity at home, so users can enjoy the same ultra-fast and reliable 5G experience in the place they spend much of their time across an ecosystem of devices.

In fact, in the past year, we’ve rapidly expanded our home internet services across the country to become not only the fastest growing internet service provider (ISP), but also one of the top 10 largest ISPs in the country. When it comes to reaching rural areas, fixed wireless is one of the best solutions out there, especially in areas that fiber can’t reach or where that last mile seems especially long!

We are also hard at work on our vision to bring connectivity to areas where there is no service at all today, which is why we recently announced we’re teaming up with SpaceX to take it a step further with complementary <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/news/un-carrier/t-mobile-takes-coverage-above-and-beyond-with-spacex" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">satellite connectivity</a>.

The future of 5G will also be HUGE for wearables in the coming years, driving innovation in ways we’ve never even dreamed of. We’re already seeing some of the biggest companies in the world prepare for a world of extended reality (XR) services, and the possibilities for these devices are endless, especially with the benefits of 5G with its potential for super-low latency.

The golden era of 5G for consumers is here with more opportunities to leverage the power of 5G than ever. I’m incredibly proud of T-Mobile for kickstarting 5G in the U.S. years before anyone else and for our hard work ensuring we’re poised to lead the industry well into the future.

In a new blog, President of Technology, Neville Ray, explores the future of 5G for consumers.

What to Expect in the Golden Era of 5G

Lollapalooza returned to Chicago this Summer with more than 170 artists performing over four days with headliners like J-Hope, Metallica, Dua Lipa and Green Day. One of the largest and longest running music festivals in the U.S., Lollapalooza has built its reputation on attracting some of the biggest touring acts in rock, pop and hip-hop. But if fans arrived expecting only great music, they were in for a surprise.

You see, the Un-carrier knows a thing or two about elevating live experiences. This summer, we hosted a concert at T-Mobile headquarters in Bellevue, WA to showcase how 5G can transform the listening experience at live shows with <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/news/network/transforming-live-events-with-the-power-of-5g" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">MixHalo</a>. And at Lolla we took it to the next level, teaming up with Google Pixel to showcase 5G experiences that seriously turn up the event experience.

While 400,000 fans attended Lollapalooza in-person, the festival has an even larger following around the world. So, what about the fans who couldn’t make it to Chicago? Thanks to the power of 5G, we shared the Lolla experience with fans near and far. With our extensive network of customers, we created the unofficial festival broadcast, through “Fanfluencers”, encouraging in-person attendees to share their festival experiences across social channels.

An event as massive as Lolla requires a wireless network that has the capacity to support thousands of people uploading content simultaneously. The nation’s <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/coverage/4g-lte-5g-networks" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">fastest and most reliable 5G network</a> was up for the task, bringing the show to fans around the world, practically in real-time.

Beauty is in the Eye of… a 5G Phone?

But we didn’t stop there. We took the fan experience a step further by transforming the history of Lolla into something fans can see. And with the help of Google Pixel’s Pixel 6a and our 5G network, we turned the summer’s biggest festival into a piece of eye-popping art.

Together we built “Posterpalooza,” a Lolla focal point that festival goers flocked to. Posterpalooza used the Google Pixel 6a and Pixel Buds Pro to unlock an immersive AR gallery, bringing history to life through dazzling 3D motion, surrounding users in art. 

It’s not quite Wonka Vision, but with the power of 5G, we aren’t too far from it.

Launching into the 5G Era

To wrap up our time at Lollapalooza, we launched 300 drones over 5G into the Chicago sky simultaneously. Our six-minute-long performance, with booming instrumentals, was a mesmerizing example of what’s possible when you have a 5G network as robust as T-Mobile’s.

But we didn’t drop the mic there. For the first time ever, we collaborated with Hulu to showcase the drone show, and the power of 5G, to millions of Hulu subscribers, once again brining 5G to the global stage.

The Show is Just Getting Started

Lolla selected T-Mobile as its 2022 5G partner not only because we have the nation’s largest, fastest and most reliable 5G network, but also because organizers knew we’d bring the fun, in Un-carrier fashion.

Few who attended the first Lollapalooza in 1991 could have imagined how technology would transform the fan experience into what it is today. 5G has made it possible to transport the entire four-day festival across the globe as it happens and enable fans to share live video and jam with faraway friends as if they were there. Visuals are no longer confined to stage and screens as fans are immersed in interactive experiences through AR. 

And the best part? This is just the beginning.

T-Mobile and Google Pixel went big this year to show fans at Lollapalooza how 5G makes makes experiences even better.

For those who love music, nothing beats seeing your favorite artist live in concert. From the excitement of the performers rallying the crowd, to feeling the beat echoing in your chest, it’s an experience like no other.

And now, <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/coverage/4g-lte-5g-networks">5G</a> is taking that experience to a whole new level. And this isn’t the theoretical “someday 5G will enable XYZ...” kind of thing. I’m talking right now. Our network is ready. The technology is here.

We recently proved it with <a href="https://www.mixhalo.com/">Mixhalo</a>, a graduate of our <a href="https://5goilab.com/">5G Open Innovation Lab</a>. The startup created a technology that delivers high-quality audio in real-time to attendees wearing headphones at concerts or any other live event. It’s the brainchild of Mixhalo co-founder Michael Einziger, who’s also the guitarist for the multi-platinum band INCUBUS. While on tour, he realized that the performers on stage had a superior audio experience to the audience because they wear ear monitors. Einziger knew that delivering the same experience to fans could be a gamechanger. And I can attest, Mixhalo immerses you into the music more than you can imagine.

Mixhalo typically relies on Wi-Fi, but we wanted to see how 5G could supercharge the experience. And supercharge it, it did.

During a concert for T-Mobile employees at our headquarters in Bellevue, Washington, Mixhalo had a band play classics while the audience listened to the music from Mixhalo’s soundboard – the same audio musicians hear while they’re playing – in real-time through their ear buds.

That sounds fairly simple, but here’s where it gets interesting. The challenge with sending audio to people in the audience is that they are sitting in front of big speakers sending soundwaves at more than 1,000 feet per second. That means, if you are 50 feet from the speaker, your phone has to get the audio in less than 50 milliseconds. If your network is too slow, the listener will hear an annoying echo. T-Mobile’s 5G network was fast enough to beat the soundwaves to the audience … and the Mixhalo app actually had to DELAY the audio from hitting peoples’ ears so that it was in sync with the music coming from the loudspeakers. And unbeknownst to the audience, this was an excellent way to showcase our edge computing capability over 5G, as we installed the Mixhalo server at our edge to enable even faster response times.

The Mixhalo team also turned off the speakers and played into the microphones, sending the audio only through the Mixhalo app. The experience for listeners was great, and people nearby not attending the concert heard nothing. I guess you could call it a “silent 5G concert”.

To pull that off for a crowd of hundreds – even thousands – you need a network with super high capacity (for speed and connections) and super low latency (for real-time responsiveness). That’s what we’re delivering at T-Mobile… and not just for large cities or certain venues. We have the <a href="https://www.t-mobile.com/coverage/4g-lte-5g-networks">largest, fastest and most reliable 5G network</a> in the country, already covering over 95% of Americans.

Mixhalo – paired with an industry-leading 5G network – has the potential to transform live events beyond concerts too. Imagine attending a baseball game and hearing the play-by-play in real-time instead of dealing with the annoying radio delay. And listen in as your favorite athletes joke around in the dugout before hitting the field. Or imagine watching a presentation in a foreign language and having the ability to switch from English translation, to Spanish, to Mandarin, all on demand and in real-time. All cool to think about, right?

I’d like to thank the entire Mixhalo team, with a special shout out to co-founder Ann Marie Simpson-Einziger, Jordyn Simone and Liza Kaye for the incredible performance that brought the power of 5G to life. And thank you to the T-Mobile technology team, working hard every day to deliver a network that makes exciting applications like Mixhalo possible. This was an experience I won’t forget… and I can’t wait to see where we go next.

Virtual Reality career simulations powered by T-Mobile 5G help Kansas City area students to dream big and pursue their goals

What do you want to be when you grow up? It’s a question we all ask our children, yet many young people today graduate from high school without a clear answer.

Since 1999 Future Leaders Outreach Network (<a href="https://flon.org/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">FLON</a>), a non-profit headquartered in Kansas City, Missouri, with regional offices in Kansas City, KS and Arlington, TX, has been working to change this, inspiring young students to think about their future career or job. With support from the Kansas City Kansas Public Schools Foundation for Excellence, FLON’s YouLEAD program exposes students grade 5-11 to different career paths.

Today, T-Mobile 5G is infusing new life into this program by powering Educational Virtual Reality (E-VR) career simulations. Using two mobile trailers equipped with T-Mobile 5G, Oculus Quest and HTC VIVE Pro 2 headsets, FLON travels to schools and other community locations. There it conducts an E-VR program that encourages young students to explore potential future occupations via 25 different career path simulations developed by <a href="https://www.victoryxr.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">VictoryXR</a>, <a href="https://careerlabsvr.com/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">CareerLabsVR</a> and others.

"Our mission is to provide young people with skills that empower them to set goals, become effective leaders, pursue economic well-being and make healthy choices,” said Dr. Diana E. Clemons, Executive Director of Future Leaders Outreach Network. “We teach students how to set behavioral boundaries from drugs, alcohol, tobacco, all forms of violence and prevention from teen pregnancy in order to stay focused on pursuing their dreams. We strongly believe they will become our future leaders and entrepreneurs, and that they are destined to soar to new heights.”

With the E-VR program, students can perform work as an industrial robotics technician running diagnostics, submitting performance logs and adjusting line speeds inside a manufacturing facility. Students can virtually enter a construction worksite and perform tasks such as operating a forklift or other heavy machinery. And students can experience the daily responsibilities of an HVAC technician working on a rooftop to assess equipment, troubleshoot broken fans and wiring and perform maintenance tasks. Other career pathways available to explore include jobs as first responders, residential and industrial electricians and welders and more.
