5G NR Differences from LTE LTE has a packet-switched architecture that supports a wide range of data applications . Voice is also supported as voice over LTE (VoLTE) or using fallback mechanisms to 3G and circuit-switched technologies. The 5G NR specification embraces a flexible air interface.

What is 5G New Radio? 5G is the fifth generation of wireless technology and NR stands for a new radio interface and radio access technology for cellular networks —a physical connection method for radio based communication. Other kinds of radio access technologies include Bluetooth, Wi-Fi and 4G LTE.
Read moreWhat is the difference between LTE and 5G NR resource block?
In 5G, One NR Resource Block (RB) contains 12 sub-carriers in frequency domain similar to LTE. In LTE resource block bandwidth is fixed to 180 KHz but in NR it is not fixed and depend on sub-carrier spacing.
Read moreWhat is LTE and NSA?
NSA (Non-Standalone) refers to the joint networking of 5G and 4G LTE , which means that 5G networks are deployed on the basis of existing 4G equipment. In the 5G NSA networking mode, operators can share 4G and 5G core networks.
Read moreHow does 5G NR support higher peak data rates than LTE?
In terms of peak data rate, NR can support a much higher rate than that of LTE-Advanced, mainly due to its larger band- width per CC and its ability to aggregate up to 16 CCs com- pared to 5 CCs for LTE-Advanced . For example, the downlink peak data rate of LTE-Advanced is 3 Gb/s, whereas it is 171.2 Gb/s for NR in FR2.
