Radio spectrum is often organised (and sold) as paired spectrum – a block of spectrum in a lower frequency band and an associated block of spectrum in an upper frequency band . This arrangement of frequency bands with one band for the uplink and one band for the downlink is called paired spectrum.

5G NR supports carrier aggregation with 16 CCs . Carrier aggregation of LTE and 5G NR carriers is also possible which is known as Dual Connectivity (DC).
Read moreWhat is paired and unpaired spectrum in 5G?
In unpaired spectrum, asymmetry may be provided through the use of unequal duty cycles in the time domain for uplink and downlink. In paired spectrum, asymmetry is also possible via the deployment of unequal bandwidths for uplink and downlink.22 Tem 2011

A small cell only ranges from about 32 feet to just over a mile . These 5G nodes offer many of the same capabilities of traditional base stations. It’s about the size of a pizza box and enables mmWave frequencies with high-speed connectivity, handling high data rates.10 Ara 2021
Read moreHow big is 5G?
5G can support up to a million devices per square kilometer , while 4G supports only one-tenth of that capacity. Several network operators use millimeter waves called FR2 in 5G terminology, for additional capacity and higher throughputs.
Read moreIs 5G a big thing?
It’s hard to get a single answer to the question, “What is the big deal with 5G?” because there are so many developments and possibilities stemming from its creation. The short answer is, it’s the newest generation of wireless technology with speeds that can be considerably faster than 4G LTE.
Read moreHow much is a 5G small cell?
small cells is cost. Macrocells traditionally cost around $200,000 to set up, while small cells will cost under $10,000 , according to Finneran. Even if carriers deploy 10 times the number of small cells compared to macrocells, the cost of small cells will still be significantly less than full macrocell deployments.
