3.4 - 3.8 GHz

EE and Huawei demonstrated data speeds of up to 2.8 Gbps using a 5G end-to-end test network in its UK mobile lab. Tests used 100 MHz of 3.5 GHz spectrum and linked a virtualised 5G network with a 64*64 Massive MIMO antenna.

Megafon and Rostelecom announced the signature of a cooperation agreement to jointly develop a 5G network. As part of the cooperation, companies will focus on optimal scenarios for rolling out 5G networks. Both players are also considering the possibility of a joint venture for the construction of 5G networks in Russia. Megafon and Rostelecom are […]

Rostelecom and Nokia are planning to carry out a 5G trial at the State Hermitage Museum, in Saint Petersburg. Tests will be based on Ericsson’s 5G Radio System, and will use a mix of VR, haptic technology, and robotics. The trial network will be operated in the 3.5GHz frequency band and support LTE/LTE-Advanced devices. These […]

Up to 2.7 Gbps achieved by Vodafone and Huawei in the city of Milan, using spectrum in the 3700-3800 MHz and Massive MIMO technology. Both partners also completed a test in Milan, on a full end-to-end (E2E) network, of a technique to enhance the range of high frequency bands (3.7 GHz bands made available by […]

VIPnet tested 5G technology in Jastrebarsko using temporary licences in the 3.5 GHz frequency band  granted by Croatian regulator HAKOM. Throughputs of up to 700 Mbps were achieved in the tests.

Vodafone UK and Ericsson, in partnership with academics at King’s College London, have successfully tested standalone pre-standard 5G using a prototype device in a central London 3.5 GHz spectrumfield trial. Based on a proprietary 5G standard with plans to move onto the new global standard when fully ratified, Ericsson’s 5G test bed system operates in […]

Sunrise and Huawei demonstrated use cases on a 5G end-to-end network. Download throughputs of 3.28 Gbps were achieved, using spectrum in the 3.5Ghz band. 5G was tested with Virtual reality, 360° live video and 4K video streams.

Orange Romania and Huawei have conducted a live technology trial of a “Massive MIMO” solution in the capital city of Bucharest. The trial uses TD LTE Technology in the 3.5GHz band. Moreover, the trial showed a boost in customer quality of experience (x5 in upload and x2.5 in download) compared to existing 4G technologies at […]

Salt and Nokia demonstrated 5G technology in Salt’s headquarters in Renens, with tests performed in the 3.5 GHz frequency band, thanks to a temporary license obtained from the OFCOM. By means of a 5G antenna with 8x8MiMo, the highest data download speed measured was 4.5 Gbps achieved in the broadband test. Both players showcased VR […]

Nokia and SFR have successfully completed ‘the first 5G call in France’, using the 3GPP-compliant 5G New Radio (NR) system on the 3.5GHz frequency band. The test took place at the Nokia 5G Test Network and Competence Center in Paris-Saclay, France. The 5G call used Nokia 5G NR technology, incorporating the Nokia 5G-ready AirScale radio […]
