For mobile base stations, exposure limits are typically expressed in terms of volts per metre (V/m). The limits vary with frequency. Taking a 5G system operating at 3.5GHz (most auctioned 5G spectrum) as an example, the maximum exposure limit set by ICNIRP for the general public is 61V/m .

Energy consumption per unit of data (watt/bit) is much less for 5G than 4G, but power consumption is much higher . In the 5G era, the maximum energy consumption of a 64T64R active antenna unit (AAU) will be an estimated 1 to 1.4 kW to 2 kW for a baseband unit (BBU).

4G can currently reach top speeds of up to 100 Mbps, though real-world performance is generally no more than 35 Mbps. 5G has the potential to be 100 times faster than 4G , with a top theoretical speed around 20 Gbps and current, real-world speeds from 50 Mbps to 3 Gbps.

5G is around 10 times faster than 4G. It’s designed to work at average speeds of 150-200Mbps, and peak speeds can reach above 1Gbps. This means you’ll be able to download a full HD film in around 3 minutes (compared to over 15 minutes on 4G).
