How does 5G wireless work?

A: 5G is based on OFDM (Orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing), a method of modulating a digital signal across several different channels to reduce interference . 5G uses 5G NR air interface alongside OFDM principles. 5G also uses wider bandwidth technologies such as sub-6 GHz and mmWave.

How do devices connect to 5G?

To use the 5GHz, your WiFi router must have dual-band WiFi support . It Should support IEEE 802.11 b/g/n/ac or WiFi 4 and WiFi 5 on 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands. Dual-band routers have the option of setting the same SSID/WiFi name for both 2.4GHz and 5GHz bands. D-Link calls this “smart connect“.

What spectrum does 5G use?

Today, a majority of commercial 5G networks rely on spectrum in the 3.5 GHz range (3.3 GHz-4.2 GHz) . This momentum makes it vital that regulators assign as much contiguous 5G spectrum as possible in the range. However, 5G needs more mid-band spectrum to maintain quality of service and meet growing demand.
