InterDigital Emphasizes Collaboration on 5G at Mobile World CongressBARCELONA, Spain, Feb. 22, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- MOBILE WORLD CONGRESS 2018 – More than any other generation of wireless, 5G is seeing research and input from a vast array of companies, universities and research institutions. At Mobile World Congress 2018 in Barcelona (February 26 – March 1, 2018), wireless research and development company InterDigital (NASDAQ:IDCC) is placing the emphasis on collaboration, with demo technologies and solutions that are designed from the start to form the basis for open research collaboration. Under the banner of “Creating the Living Network.™ Together.” InterDigital is highlighting technologies and research that underpin its network of more than 100 research collaborators across more than a dozen projects worldwide. “Obviously, there are some giant companies that are doing very interesting things in advancing 5G, but, more than any other generation of wireless, 5G provides an opportunity for smaller companies, research institutions and universities to make their mark, given the immensity and broad scope of the challenges and use cases,” said Dr. Robert DiFazio, Vice President, InterDigital Labs. “InterDigital understands the vital importance of collaboration through various projects like Horizon 2020 in Europe, PAWR in the U.S., and other important projects. We also understand that, to be a valued contributor, our technologies and solutions have to minimize proprietary approaches and instead provide as open and flexible a platform as possible.” The company’s presence at MWC 2018 showcases how the next generation of wireless will be brought to life through an expansive 5G research community:
