LuxTurrim5GBuilding key enablers for a Digital Smart City
Key Challenges
• Smart cities need digital service infrastructure to
improve safety, energy efficiency, air quality, effectivity
of transportation and quality of living
• However, the capacity of mobile networks will be far too
insufficient due to the increased number of users and
new digital services built and planned
• The problem can only be solved by using small cell 5G
radio frequency technology & higher frequencies; this
requires dense networks of antennas setting new
requirements for the network infrastructure
Key Project Characteristics
• Highly multi-disciplinary joint R&D project
developing composite and antenna materials,
smart light pole design, miniaturized 5G base
stations and integrated sensors
• The project creates novel digital services,
business models and ecosystem
• 2½ year project started 2017 including 9
companies and 3 research institutes, with
project volume of 15 M€ (1st phase) from
Tekes and the companies
Project Goals and Results
• Develop & pilot key technical solutions
and concept for smart light pole based
5G infrastructure, and business &
service innovations
• Create an open access ecosystem for
digital services
• Pilot services on navigation, information
sharing & advertisement, weather
monitoring and smart lighting
LuxTurrim5G is developing and demonstrating fast
5G network based on smart light poles with
integrated antennas, base stations, sensors, screens
and other devices. This joint project opens new
digital services and business opportunities for a real
smart city.
Our society and cities face great challenges, e.g. to improve safety, energy efficiency, air quality, effectivity of transportation and quality of living
Smart cities need a new service infrastructure and a digital ecosystem enabling• Development of relevant smart city services
• High data capacity for citizens
• New service and business opportunities for companies
• Opportunities for new micro-operators in the systems
• One common flexible total cost optimized
high capacity 5G network
Smart cities require fast communication networks

City of Espoo:
Modern city infrastructure
with integrated 5G
ecosystem
5G will be the enabler for smart city digital ecosystems.
Ecosystem will use huge amount of data, 5G macros below 6GHz are not sufficient in a long run.
-> 5G mmW small cells are needed, those will enable extreme high capacity
The needs of smart cities differ from the current mobile operators strategies.
Often city owns the lamp posts and some amount of fiber infrastructure. This would be feasible
to use for 5G network. Investment by cities together with operators will boost the 5G mmW small
cells deployment.
We need to understand the smart city ecosystem to be able to make the right products and
solutions for them. Cities are driving the world and 5G mmW lampposts will enable the real
digital ecosystem.
Understand and drive the ecosystem
