Author here. Wish it were good for rural but 98% of experts think 5G millimeter wave will mostly be urban and suburban. Millimeter wave has short reach, hence not good for rural. More antennas, MIMO and Massive MIMO, is…
Author here. Density is one way to add capacity but adding more spectrum or more antennas turns out to be cheaper most place today. (Carrier aggregation and MIMO.) Millimeter wave is essentially adding more spectrum.
Author here. There's no conspiracy, just an incredible amount of 5G hype. Note that the source of the comment is the CEO of the largest manufacturer, and I have similar from CTOs of Deutsche Telekom and Telefonica.
Author here. Actually, the LTE being installed today will give 100-300 megabits to most users, except at the edge of the cell or behind a building, etc. The "usually less than 100 megabits" is equipment from more than a…
Author Here to clarify The article is comparing today's LTE and 5G, deploying in 2018-2019. Is there really a big difference to the consumer between 100-400 meg real speeds (LTE) and 5G at 200 -600 meg mostly? In what…
