The industry consortium setting standards for 5G is the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) . It defines any system using 5G NR (5G New Radio) software as “5G”, a definition that came into general use by late 2018.

The FCC concluded its first 5G spectrum auctions in the 28 GHz band; the 24 GHz band; and the upper 37 GHz, 39 GHz, and 47 GHz bands . With these auctions, the FCC is releasing almost 5 gigahertz of 5G spectrum into the market—more than all other flexible use bands combined.
Read moreHas the FCC approved 5G?
5G development in the CBRS band has hit a new milestone, with the news that Airspan Networks’ Citizens Broadband Radio Service (CBRS) 5G Standalone small cell radio has been approved by the Federal Communications Commission for use in U.S. networks .
Read moreWhy did the FCC allow 5G?
To be clear, the FCC did test 5G in the C-band for potential interference with aircraft operations and found no issues of concern. This should not be surprising, as C-band spectrum has been used around the world, with no reported aviation incidents.
Read moreIs low-band 5G good?
Spectrum determines 5G speed and coverage High-band spectrum may give you blazing fast speeds and lots of capacity —but only if you are close to the cell site. Low-band may provide excellent coverage but the network performance may only be a small step up from 4G.
Read moreIs 5G connection better than LTE?
In a nutshell, because 5G uses a different spectrum than 4G LTE, it can deliver stronger and faster connections , higher capacity for traffic, as well as latency as low as 1ms.
Read moreIs low-band 5G faster than LTE?
Speedcheck found that 5G networks provided, on average, download speeds that were about 2.7 times faster than 4G LTE networks , with peak speeds about six-fold faster than the previous generation network.
