DESCRIPTION:Since 2019\, Rogers Communications has engaged in a strategic c
 ollaboration with two prominent Canadian institutions: the University of W
 aterloo in Ontario and the University of British Columbia (UBC) in BC. Thi
 s collaboration has been dedicated to advancing research and development e
 ndeavors\, with a primary focus on the dynamic realm of 5G technology and 
 its multifaceted use cases. Rogers has demonstrated its substantial commit
 ment by investing millions of dollars in the establishment of 5G smart cam
 puses at both universities\, providing services across the low-band\, mid-
 band\, and mmWave band spectrums\, both indoors and outdoors. Furthermore\
 , Rogers has fostered partnerships for over 20 funded research and develop
 ment projects\, all aimed at exploring ground breaking 5G technologies and
  their potential use cases\n\nA standout partnership with the University o
 f Waterloo has centered around pioneering work in network slicing\, Open R
 adio Access Network (ORAN)\, and smart operation & planning of 5G networks
 .\n\nAdditionally\, several pivotal projects conducted in collaboration wi
 th Waterloo have spanned areas such as asset tracking\, teleoperation usin
 g robots\, edge computing\, remote inspection of structures\, and autonomo
 us vehicles.\n\nIn this presentation\, we will share valuable insights gai
 ned from our collaborative journey. Additionally\, we will explore the tec
 hnical knowledge we've developed through our active involvement in transfo
 rmative projects. This includes insights from deploying 28GHz mmWave small
  cells as part of the 5G smart campus initiatives at Waterloo and UBC.\n\n
