As India is getting ready to roll out 5G, the country is looking to partner with South Korea, which was ranked second in information communications technology index for 2017 by the International Telecommunication Union, while India was at the 134th position.
The government of India is in discussions with South Korea for jointly setting up 5G test laboratories. As per media sources, the telecom ministry is in discussion with South Korea to collaborate in the field of telecommunications including setting up of 5G test laboratories.
South Korea has always been on the top in terms of technological advancement. Over 90 per cent of households in South Korea have access to over 1,000-megabit per second broadband speed service, according to ITU.
Telecom Minister of India Manoj Sinha has already committed that India will be among early starters of 5G. Partnership with South Korea will help India expedite its plan for 5G roll out.
Meanwhile, a high-level panel constituted by the government to work out a roadmap for 5G rollout held its third meeting on 20 April and is now working on drafting interim reports on the proposed 5G blueprint, as per media sources.
The forum is chaired by Telecom Secretary, and will hold its next meeting in mid-June.
