These new labs are purposefully designed and equipped to provide local businesses, university students, researchers, and other innovators with the tools and facilities needed to unlock the full potential of 5G technology and develop innovative solutions that will shape the future of communication and connectivity across Saskatchewan.

Lab users will have access to mobile test devices within the lab and can work with radio frequency parameters. Users will benefit by being able to access workstations and RAN software tools and operational measurement data from the lab site. Allowing users to see how devices interact with the network and parameters looked at when evaluating the performance of a cell site.

The three primary benefits of the lab include:

      1.  Innovation  The lab can be used by industry and the local tech community to test and validate solutions (e.g. Smart Ag, Smart Oil & Gas)
      2. Research  The lab can be used as a technology tool to help university researchers in their fields of study, such as agriculture, mineral, or oil & gas-based research projects
      3. Teaching  The lab can be used by departments like Computer Science or Engineering as part of their curriculum.
