Ericsson and Carleton University extend Partnership to Advance 5G Wireless Networks
Extended partnership to continue ground-breaking research in mobile wireless networks and contribute to Canada's thriving technology ecosystem OTTAWA, ON, June 5, 2025 /CNW/ -- Ericsson Canada and Carleton University have announced a new extension to their multi-year, multi-million-dollar partnership to drive innovation, train skilled workers and build more reliable, secure technology for the future of 5G wireless communications. The announcement was made today at the bi-annual Tech Talks event, which showcases the ongoing projects and accomplishments of the Ericsson-Carleton 5G Wireless Lab. The Ericsson-Carleton University Partnership for Research and Leadership in Wireless Networks has taken significant steps toward advancing innovative wireless communications solutions together since entering a strategic collaboration in the first quarter of 2020. Based on the successful collaboration, Ericsson and Carleton have agreed to extend the partnership an additional two years until December 2026, continuing the important wireless research programs and delving into new areas of focus that will benefit both Ericsson and Carleton. "The collaboration between Ericsson and Carleton University is a prime example of the positive impact industry-academia collaborations can have on society and the economy in Canada and beyond," said Rafik Goubran, Vice-President (Research and International), Carleton University. "We are proud of our progress and anticipate much more to come as we continue to explore novel 5G applications in health care, transportation and aerospace." The partnership has established research projects, graduate student internships, a prestigious Ericsson fellowship program and experiential learning opportunities for Computer Science and Engineering students. It also opened a 5G Wireless Laboratory in Carleton's ARISE building in 2022, dedicated to student-centred research projects and innovation programs, with Canada's first fully functional private standalone 5G network. "Our shared goal of advancing innovative wireless communications solutions continues to drive us forward," said Marcos Cavaletti, Head of Ottawa site for Ericsson. "Today's extension announcement solidifies years of mobile wireless exploration together to harness the potential of advancing connectivity across the globe." During the first phase of the partnership, completed in December 2024, this strategic collaboration focused on two key objectives: to engage in applied collaborative research with best-in-class research professors to address real-world research challenges that Ericsson is facing; and to develop a funnel of top students interested in mobile communications and who have relevant skills, so they are equipped to enter the tech workforce. The collaboration has generated excellent results together, including key achievements, such as: An Ericsson Chair in 5G Wireless Research, which drove six research projects covering various areas of 5G communications and applications 12 graduate research projects to address real Ericsson wireless technologies challenges A new state-of-the-art 5G Wireless Laboratory and 5G Drone Lab, utilized by the Chair and research projects more than 700 co-op work terms completed by Carleton students 8 Ericsson-funded graduate fellows Participation in the Women in Engineering and IT Program, which seeks to help close the gender gap in STEM The Ericsson-Carleton University Partnership strategically aligns and amplifies the existing strengths of both organizations. Ericsson Canada is a top employer and Ericsson's Ottawa site is a strategic R&D centre for wireless communications, with one of the largest, most advanced R&D labs in North America. Carleton's exceptional academic programs, including Engineering and Science, use hands-on experiential learning to build students' skills so they are ready to meet industry needs. This announcement is part of a long-term partnership initiative at Carleton. Its accomplishments showcase the strength of collaboration and what's possible when industry and academia unite to solve today's pressing challenges.

Cuba partially rolls back internet rate hike as anger grows
By Nelson Acosta HAVANA (Reuters) -Cuba said it would begin to offer additional mobile internet data plans at a sharply reduced price for students after an initial rate hike prompted outrage across an island already reeling from soaring inflation and shortages of basic goods. State-run telecommunications firm ETECSA last week capped subsidized data plans - offered at a steeply discounted rate of 360 pesos (just under $1 on the informal market exchange) - at 6 gigabytes, less than a third of the global average monthly usage per smartphone of 21.6 gigabytes, according to Swedish telecoms company Ericsson. After that, newly announced prices for an additional three gigabytes soar to 3,360 pesos ($9), over half the average monthly wage of 5,839 pesos ($16). Many plans are offered only in dollars - a currency out of reach for many Cubans - in a bid to tap the funds of relatives who have migrated abroad and wish to communicate with their families. The rate hike struck a nerve with many Cubans - for whom the new data packages are inaccessible - prompting ETECSA on Monday evening to offer students an additional 6 gigabytes, for a total of 12, at the same discounted rate of 360 pesos ($1), easing tensions - but leaving many still in the lurch. Andrea Curbelo, a 20-year-old art history student at the University of Havana said the additional discounted data package for students was appreciated but said all Cubans should be treated equal. "All Cubans should have the same opportunity as we students to communicate with their families ... they should restructure the measure so that everyone has the same rights." The continuing rift over the price of data plans in Cuba comes as the nation's communist-run government scrambles to raise funds amid the worst economic crisis to hit the island since Fidel Castro's 1959 revolution. The government says the rate hikes are necessary to update ailing telecommunications infrastructure in a country with some of the slowest internet connection speeds in the world, according to an online service that measures bandwidth. Danila Maria Hernandez, a 19-year-old Havana resident, said the government had struck a nerve raising prices amid the ongoing economic crisis. "All we have left to distract ourselves is social media, a little internet, to get our minds off our problems," she said. "It's just not right."
