Ericsson Local packet Gateway

The 5G Car patrolling solution also uses Ericsson’s Local packet Gateway to connect each equipped car to a regional site for each city for data processing without installing a system on every single car. This solution reduces costs and allows data to be kept at a city level.

Chee Ching, President of Far EasTone Telecommunications, says: “We are thrilled to achieve another 5G milestone with Ericsson by creating the very first network slicing use case in a live 5G standalone network in Taiwan. The 5G Smart Patrol Car is made possible by our continuous investment in big data, AI and IoT, combining with Ericsson top-notch 5G technology and the great support from Kaohsiung City Police Department. In collaboration with both public and private sectors, we will continuously explore various scenarios with 5G to enhance the efficiency of urban governance, bringing more innovative and reliable services to the society.”
