Reliance Industries led Jio Platforms have collaborated with US chip-making giant Qualcomm to manufacture critical 5G equipment in India, Economic Times has reported.
These 5G equipment will help catalyse the 5G ecosystem in India. Qualcomm had invested $97 million in Jio last year and has envisioned a partnership to develop open and interoperable interface compliant architecture based 5G solutions with a virtualised RAN. The Jio-Qualcomm partnership had achieved a speed of over 1 Gbps on Jio 5G via Qualcomm's RAN Platforms.
Reliance has already completed the testing of its 5G radio and core solutions and is now preparing for a 5G field trial after having received a trial spectrum from Department of Telecommunications.
"India is at the forefront of the global digital revolution. Jio is accelerating the rollout of digital platforms and indigenously developed next-generation 5G stack, making it affordable and available everywhere," RIL had said in its annual report.

Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
