What is Max bandwidth in 5G?

While Release 15, completed back in 2018, laid the foundations for 5G architecture and security, Release 16 was dedicated to additional use cases and therefore many features were added or enhanced .

Release 16 supports reliable and efficient multicast communication based on HARQ feedback and uses distance as a new dimension at the physical layer, which enables “on-the-fly” multicast groups based on distance and applications. 5G V2X sidelink offers significant benefits for future autonomous driving.

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. 5G has more capacity than 4G.

Early Release 16 Status Release 16 is a major release for the project , not least because it brings our IMT-2020 submission – for an initial full 3GPP 5G system – to its completion (see details below).
