Are Nordic operators celebrating 5G availability?

Analysis of Speedtest Intelligence ® data confirms that Nordic operators have much to celebrate. In Q4 2024, Nordic countries claimed three of the top five positions in Europe for 5G Availability—the percentage of users with 5G-capable devices spending most of their time connected to 5G networks.

What is a 5G NR Network?

As defined in 3GPP TS 38.300, the 5G NR network consists of NG RAN (Next Generation Radio Access Network) and 5GC (5G Core Network). As shown, NG-RAN is composed of gNBs (i.e., 5G Base stations) and ng-eNBs (i.e., LTE base stations). The figure above depicts the overall architecture of a 5G NR system and its components.

Is the Nordic region a good place to invest in 5G?

Home to two of the world’s largest radio vendors, Ericsson and Nokia, and characterised by markedly higher operator profitability than much of the rest of Europe, the Nordic region remains a key bright spot in Europe’s struggle for competitiveness against the Middle East, North America and Asia in 5G.

What is a 5G gnodeb?

The 5G next-generation base transceiver station or gNodeB (gNB) connects subscriber user equipment (UE) devices to the mobile network. Many of the gNB throughput improvements come from multiple input and multiple output (MIMO) antenna systems that improve cellular connection reliability and quality.

Is 5G a key to digital transformation in Nordic countries?

Nordic countries have consistently prioritised 5G access as a cornerstone of ambitious national digital transformation strategies. For example, the Norwegian government has introduced a range of policy measures aimed at achieving its goal of becoming the “world’s most digitalised country by 2030”.

How have Nordic countries positioned themselves in the 5G cycle?

Nordic countries have distinguished themselves in the 5G cycle through the timely release of mid-band spectrum assets, the development of innovative government policies to enable widespread rollout beyond core urban centres and a unique appetite for network sharing.
