SHARE THIS ARTICLE

Facilitating carriers’ future 5G-powered robotics services, Nokia has developed a CE-certified, turnkey drone-in-a-box solution, which connects over public and private 4G/LTE and 5G networks. The drones will enhance situational awareness for first responders and other professionals in the smart cities, construction, energy and defense segments.

The Nokia Drone Networks solution comprises Nokia drones, docking station, dual gimbal camera and edge cloud processing using Nokia MX Industrial Edge (MXIE). Higher data rates and lower latency enables more data to be streamed than over WiFi. Dual modem connectivity allows Nokia drones to simultaneously connect to multiple networks, complying with system redundancy that is commonly required by aviation regulatory bodies.

When used in conjunction with Nokia MXIE, data from Nokia drones can be collected and processed in real time at the edge cloud. An open API framework allows agencies and enterprises to onboard pre-integrated Nokia and third-party applications and systems and a number of public safety and Industry 4.0 use cases for drone automation, including object identification, tracking and network measurements.
