Case Study: NTT DOCOMO advances 5G innovation with Ericsson

NTT Docomo - Customer Case Study

NTT DOCOMO, working with Ericsson, was preparing for the arrival of 5G and the new business models and cross-industry ecosystems it would enable. The challenge was to advance research, development, and standardization while getting ready for the commercial launch of next-generation mobile technology.

Ericsson collaborated closely with NTT DOCOMO’s 5G labs and R&D teams in Japan to support tests and trials focused on radio interface design, technical progression, and implementation. The result was stronger alignment on 5G development and readiness for commercialization, helping NTT DOCOMO move toward leading-edge 5G deployment, though the case study does not provide specific quantitative results.
