Long Term Evolution (LTE), which evolved from conventional 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) systems, is expected to provide downlink and uplink peak data rates of over 100 Mbps and 50 Mbps, respectively.

But the higher frequencies also allow higher antenna gains to be generated without increasing physical antenna size. 5G can utilize these increased antenna gains through beamforming both at the transmitter and at the receiver , which helps mitigate the impact on coverage at higher frequencies.5 Kas 2018
Read moreWhat is peak data rate in 5G?
5G is faster than 4G. 5G can be significantly faster than 4G, delivering up to 20 Gigabits-per-second (Gbps) peak data rates and 100+ Megabits-per-second (Mbps) average data rates.

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 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.
