AMD announced the successful completion of a 5G mobile network field trial with Viettel Group’s R&D arm Viettel High Tech (VHT). AMD supplied its Xilinx Zynq UltraScale+ MPSoC devices for the trial, which is part of Viettel’s plan to complete its 5G network in Vietnam by the end of 2022.
“Viettel is committed to advancing mobile technology leadership by working closely with AMD to incorporate its adaptable SoC technology into our new generation of 5G networks,” said Nguyen Vu Ha, general director of Viettel High Tech. “Going from VHT’s history of making 4G BTS, this decision to scale for the growing demands of 5G was based on evaluating various factors including flexibility, simplification, design stability and the experience of engineers.”
