3GPP Release 15/5G Features 5G phase 1 system is expected to have key features like network slicing support, access and mobility management, QoS framework, policy framework, network sharing, access of un-trusted non-3GPP network inter-working(Wimax, Wi-Fi), integration with EPS (Evolved Packet System), etc.
Read moreWhat is the bandwidth for 5G?
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 .
Read moreWhat are component carriers in 5G?
Each aggregated carrier is referred to as a component carrier, CC. The component carrier can have a bandwidth of 1.4, 3, 5, 10, 15 or 20 MHz and a maximum of five component carriers can be aggregated, hence the maximum aggregated bandwidth is 100 MHz.
Read moreWhat band is sub-6?
The first band defined*1 by 3GPP is from 410 MHz to 7125 MHz and is described as the sub-6 GHz or sub-7 GHz band. It is used by the LTE/LTE-Advanced (LTE-A) and WLAN technologies, and has been extended in recent years.
Read moreWhat is SDL and Sul in 5G?
Supplementary Downlink ( SDL ) and Supplementary Uplink ( SUL ) are modes that allow only downlink or uplink in those bands . SDL and SUL are meant to provide additional capacity. In practice, industry looks at 5G spectrum in terms of low-band (600-700 kHz), mid-band (3-5 GHz) and high-band (26-100 GHz).
Read moreIs NSA an mmWave?
According to Chip vendor Qualcomm, all 5G mmWave deployments in the world are currently (March 2021) using 5G non-standalone (NSA) configuration .
Read moreWhat are SA NSA 5G bands?
The main difference of NSA (Non-Standalone Architecture) and SA (Standalone Architecture) is that NSA anchors the control signaling of 5G Radio Networks to the 4G Core, while the SA scheme connects the 5G Radio directly to the 5G core network , and the control signaling does not depend on the 4G network at all.
