Telefónica uses drones for video transmission with 5G technology

Telefónica R&D and Telefonica Ingeniería y Seguridad (TIS), in collaboration with the Port Authority and the Local Police of Malaga, has successfully executed two use cases using drone flights for video transmission over a private 5G network.

With this test, Telefónica R&D has demonstrated that the 5G private network allows real-time transmission of high quality, high definition video using the bandwidth available with this new technology, and that this transmission is more secure and efficient as it is carried out over a private network and uses edge computing resources to store the generated video.

For this proof of concept, a private 5G network was deployed in the port of Malaga and on Calle Larios, and a software-based 5G Non-Standalone core 5G solution was deployed by the University of Malaga (UMA), an institution also participating in the Andalusia 5G pilot project. Through RANSharing MOCN network sharing technology, Telefónica Móviles' commercial 4G/5G antennas in the area have been used to simultaneously cover both Movistar's commercial network and the private network through a distinct network indicator (PLMN).

The drone was piloted by Telefonica Ingeniería y Seguridad (TIS) personnel, specifically a DJI Matrice 300 RTK. The drone controller has been connected to a backpack equipped with a 5G module that has allowed the generation of a stream video that can be viewed in real time and, in addition, be stored in a video platform developed by Telefonica R&D for this use case.

The Port of Malaga carried out a reconnaissance flight around the port and with different camera approaches, while the Malaga police selected Calle Larios as a point of interest to test the capabilities of the drone and the quality of the video generated. In addition to the Port Authority and members of the Local Police, the tests were attended by members of the National Police and the Civil Guard, who showed interest in the potential uses of the combination of drones, private 5G networks and video analytics.

XXVIII CONFERENCE OF ARTS AND HUMANITIES DEANS' OFFICES

Yesterday and the day before took place in Malaga the XXVIII Conference of Deans of Arts and Humanities. This event was held at the Faculty of Economics and Business Studies of the University of Malaga (Campus del Ejido) and was attended by numerous speakers, among which were Nuria Rodríguez Ortega, Professor of Art History and director of the Telefónica-UMA Chair «5G Next Generation Networks and Information Technologies». 

The conference, made up of round tables on different topics, focuses on the future challenges facing the university institution, discussing the possible solutions that can be found, offering answers from all the areas of knowledge that make up this community.

Thus, from 09:00 in the morning of Thursday 10th November to 16:00 on Friday 11th November, all the participants showed their point of view and their ideas. Finally, a guided tour of the historic centre of the city of Malaga and a farewell cocktail made this event a very fruitful meeting to exchange impressions.

 

A new project with 5G technology is being developed in Malaga, in collaboration with the UMA.

Malaga City Council and Darwin are working to put autonomous vehicles into circulation in the city. This is the title of the article we are sharing with you, which covers, in general, the development of a new project that aims to rethink in an innovative way the way in which we travel at user level. In this regard, the respective heads and C.E.Os of the various companies that are part of this ongoing project explain the proposal and present it as an efficient way to ensure collaboration between relevant players in the connectivity, cybersecurity and artificial intelligence industry.

A proposal that extends towards the concept of new cultural or digital connected itineraries (autonomous routes) focused on communication and security. This project also has the collaboration of other actors, including the University of Malaga.
