[Jan] 5G technology & it's 3 bands Flashcards
5G spectrum frequency details?
5G Technology mainly works in 3 bands which have their own advantages and disadvantages: The 5G spectrum band can be allocated anywhere (approx.) between 1800 MHz to 4500 MHz
What is Low frequency band spectrum:
Maximum speed can be only up to 100 Mbps but its quite good in terms of coverage area (long distance/remote calls)
What is Mid band Spectrum:
Limitations in terms of coverage area and penetration but has relatively higher speed. Can be used by industries and factory units for building their own captive (specific to that factory campus/building) internet network for high speed data/voice transfer
What is High band Spectrum?
Highest speed of all the three bands (up to 20 Gbps) but has extremely limited coverage and signal penetration strength. [signal penetration less means if you are inside a house then the calls/net quality may be poor]
What is 5G?
- next generation of mobile broadband
- multi-Gbps peak rates, ultra-low latency, massive capacity
