Singaporean operator M1 and Airbus are trailing the safety and efficiency of 5G to operate unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) in real-world environments. In collaboration with Infocomm Media Development Authority (IMDA) and Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore (MPA) the trial will run on M1’s 5G standalone network at the Singapore Maritime Drone Estate.
Additionally, M1 will collect data to assess the performance and coverage of mobile network in the operating areas, as well as carry out network parameter optimization and the implementation of interference minimization methods.
