Chula Engineering and AIS 5G Showcase AIS 5G PLAY GROUND & 5G GARAGE

The First Sandbox To Be Powered By 5G Networks On 2600 MHz And 26 GHz. Students And Devs Are Invited To Create 5G Use Cases To Support The Digital Economy

The Faculty of Engineering at Chulalongkorn University has partnered with AIS 5G since the initial trials of 5G in 2018 to the present.

They have launched an R&D 5G centre, the first ever “AIS 5G PLAY GROUND & 5G GARAGE” in Thailand in Chula Engineering’s Centennial Memorial Building.

Chula Engineering has installed a LIVE Private Network with 5G base stations on 2 frequencies: 2600 MHz and 26 GHz (mmWave), and other activities to support research into 5G innovation for both students and faculty. This support provided by industry will strengthen the country as a whole.
