Fixed Wireless Access is one technique that increases the number of fixed broadband connections. It gathers mobile signals from 5G base stations and converts them into Wi-Fi using Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) to provide network connectivity to home customers. When Fixed Wireless Access initially entered the market, it quickly drew a substantial home user base due to Saudi Arabia's unique geography and variety of indoor entertainment options. It solves the challenges of putting traditional fixed-line fiber optic networks into place while offering fast and simple network connectivity.
Statistics show that there are over 25 million gamers in Saudi Arabia, and that their need for a top-notch home gaming network is only going to increase. Zain KSA and Huawei jointly acknowledged that the Gaming Acceleration feature, Service Turbo, is a targeted upgrade to the current FWA solution. With a 90% reduction in latency and a 70% reduction in jitter when compared to scenarios without this functionality, the proof of concept demonstrated that the gaming service's quick speed and low latency were successfully guaranteed under full network load (simulated using SpeedTest).
The primary technique for putting Service Turbo technology into practice is the slicing or specialized bearer. The Huawei 5G CPE Pro 5 detects gaming traffic accurately and either attaches the game slicing or starts the process of creating specialized bearers in the Huawei Core Network and RAN. This ensures that gaming traffic is given priority scheduling and resource allocation on the network. In addition to enhancing and ensuring the gaming experience, this innovation enables Zain KSA use the limited network resources in a reasonable and rational manner, opening up new opportunities for home broadband customers in the market.
By effectively addressing problems like latency and network instability, the Fixed Wireless Access Service Turbo was created with the intention of enhancing the gaming experience. This innovative service will provide consumers one-of-a-kind experiences, showcasing its commitment to meeting the evolving demands of a dynamic digital landscape.
Zain KSA has consistently adhered to its strategy plan for Fixed Wireless Access. With the development of multidimensional network capabilities from 5G to 5G-A, Zain KSA continues to pioneer FWA innovation, meeting the specific network requirements of customers and setting a new benchmark for the adoption of wireless home internet in the Saudi market and beyond.
Fixed wireless access: what is it?
Fixed wireless access (FWA) is a wireless technology that provides high-speed internet access to a specific region without the need for physical connections. Using radio waves, fixed wireless access, also known as fixed wireless internet, links a customer's location to the internet.An affordable and efficient alternative to traditional phone or cable connections is fixed wireless access. It's ideal for reaching underserved or distant locations or for companies without access to traditional internet. FWA can also be used as a fallback option in case of a network outage.
FWA employs a base station connected to a fixed network and many subscriber units spread across a wide area. By communicating with the subscriber units from the base station via radio waves, customers can join the network. The radio waves are usually established by rooftop antennas mounted on stationary objects such as poles or buildings.
Both 4G LTE and 5G technologies may be used with fixed wireless access, but 5G FWA is particularly helpful because of its rapid speeds and low latency, which are comparable to fiber optic connections.
