The Smart LanternTM is designed to transform the 5G customer
experience, maximizing high gain antenna performance. It uses
Airgain’s patented smart beamforming technology to simplify end
user FWA installation by automatically determining the direction of
the best received and transmitted signal from the 5G Cellular base
station (gNb).
The Airgain Smart LanternTM addresses the evolving needs of the
telecom industry with its cutting-edge smart antenna technology for
5G mid-band and C-band frequencies. The device provides an improved
end-user experience, combining innovative features that include
hybrid beamforming, beam steering and a flexible architecture, and
eliminates professional installation, ensuring extended and
optimized 5G performance.
Key features of the Airgain Smart LanternTM:
- Hybrid Beamforming Technology: Market-first technology
that maximizes high-gain antenna performance, enhancing signal
propagation efficiency at the FWA device.
- Optimized Installation: Simplifies the installation
process, aiding in finding the optimal direction for improved
signal reception.
- Flexible Architecture: Integrating the Airgain smart
antenna, beamforming logic and specialized firmware to implement
beam steering.
Benefits for mobile network operators (MNOs) and
telecommunication equipment manufacturers (TEMs) and end users:
- Extended Coverage: Significantly better coverage
ensuring a broader reach for telecom operators and access for
end-users.
- Enhanced Throughput: Faster and more consistent
throughput, meeting the increasing demands for high-speed data in
the 5G era.
- Lower installation cost: The Smart LanternTM ensures
simplified installation for end customers, eliminating the need for
professional truck-roll services for both indoor and outdoor usage
models.
Joe Madden, Chief Analyst at Mobile Experts, commented on the
impact of Smart LanternTM:
"As the operators push to capture new revenue with FWA, it’s
critical for them to control costs with extended coverage without
sending technicians to install the CPE. This is the single most
critical part of the ROI equation for the operators."
Dr. Ali Sadri, CTO of Airgain Inc., shared his insights on the
groundbreaking Smart LanternTM:
"The Airgain Smart LanternTM represents a pivotal advancement in
fixed wireless access solutions, marking a new era in 5G
