- Vodafone has long been exploring the potential of, and challenges associated with, quantum computing
- It has teamed up with Orca Computing to improve and accelerate its network planning and optimisation processes
- Vodafone is hoping for multiple efficiencies as well as being able to deliver an improved customer experience
Vodafone Group has teamed up with quantum computing specialist Orca Computing to explore ways in which the international network operator can transform its mobile and fixed network planning, installation and optimisation processes.
Much of the current focus of the telecom sector with respect to quantum computing is related to network security and, in particular, quantum-safe networking techniques that can protect networks from quantum computer-enabled cyberattacks. But Vodafone, which has been exploring the potential and impact of quantum computing on the communications networking sector for a number of years already, is exploring additional options.
