Abstract
The DSP Centre at Bangor University undertakes research in advanced communication technologies in its state-of-the-art research facility which is partly funded by the North Wales Growth Deal (NWGD) through Ambition North Wales. To further expand our research capabilities, we plan to acquire a 5G Mobile Private Network, and will also require installation/set-up support and training.
A 5G MPN is required for indoor operation, covering two physically separated laboratories within the same building, (each approx. 12m x 7m). The MPN should be able to support applications requiring high data rates and low latency. The number of supported user terminals does not need to be excessively large. The support for future system scalability, such as increased coverage area, will be a key consideration. We will also be assessing the 5G use cases the supplier can offer for public demonstration purposes, use cases of interest include health/medical, agri-tech and enviro-tech. The MPN should operate in a spectral band supported by an Ofcom shared access licence.
