The n78 band which is also referred to as the 3500 MHz or the 3.5 GHz band , and is also known as the C-band 5G is the most popular 5G band. This popularity stems from the fact that it offers good speed, great coverage and to top that, it also is most commonly available.19 May 2021
Read moreHow fast is 5G vs 4G?
In theory, 5G is likely to reach speeds that are 20 times faster than 4G LTE 1. 4G LTE has a peak speed of 1GB per second; 5G could theoretically achieve speeds of 20GB per second. These are of course what you might call ‘peak speeds’, we’ll just have to see when 5G is rolled out what the real-world performance is like.
Read moreWhat is spectrum and why is it auctioned?
A spectrum auction is a process whereby a government uses an auction system to sell the rights to transmit signals over specific bands of the electromagnetic spectrum and to assign scarce spectrum resources .
Read moreWhat is spectrum 2G 3G 4G?
The amount of spectrum used for the transmission of a radio signal. For example, a 2G (GSM) channel is 200 kHz wide , a 3G (WCDMA) channel is 5 MHz wide and a 4G (LTE) channel can be up to 20MHz wide.
Read moreWhat is frequency spectrum in mobile communication?
A frequency spectrum in mobile communications is the range of radio frequencies allocated to each mobile network operator (MNO) in their country of operation for transmitting and receiving their RF signals . An MNO can add more cells with more spectrum to improve network capacity and coverage.
Read moreWhat does spectrum mean in telecom?
Spectrum refers to the invisible radio frequencies that wireless signals travel over . Those signals are what enable us to make calls from our mobile devices, tag our friends on Instagram, call an Uber, pull up directions to a destination, and do everything on our mobile devices.
Read moreIs 5G a spectrum?
Today, a majority of commercial 5G networks rely on spectrum in the 3.5 GHz range (3.3 GHz-4.2 GHz) . This momentum makes it vital that regulators assign as much contiguous 5G spectrum as possible in the range. However, 5G needs more mid-band spectrum to maintain quality of service and meet growing demand.
