Monday 5 July 2021 | 12:29 CET | News
Telenor Sweden said it and Ericsson are supplying private 5G equipment to Skogforsk, the Swedish forestry sector's research institute. Their pilot project looks at ways to use 5G for remote control of forest machinery, to benefit the sector and its workers. It will compare connectivity via local 5G stations with other methods, to find out the distance at which remote control is possible, and which tasks can be done at a distance.
