70 - 80 GHz

Deutsche Telekom and Ericsson’s live 5G demonstration achieved an ultra-low latency connection with fiber-like results over a wireless backhaul (5G X-Haul Solution). This joint innovation project took place in Deutsche Telekom Service Center in Athens and used Ericsson’s mobile transport technologies, including the MINI-LINK 6352 microwave solution and Router 6000. The demonstration achieved a data […]

20 Gbps downlink throughputs demonstrated by Vodafone UK using the E band (70-80 GHz) with Huawei equipment in an outdoor scenario. This throughput leverages a single user MIMO solution using multipath to augment throughputs. Another test with a Multi User MIMO solution provided 10 Gbps on a longer range

Vodafone tested 10Gbps ‘E-band’ point-to-point radio network link technology, which it says will support its plans to launch 5G commercially in 2020 by providing high transmission bandwidth in the 71GHz-86GHz ranges in densely populated urban centres.

Proximus successfully tested 5G technology with the provider Huawei. During the tests, speeds of up to 70 Gbps were reached over millimetre wave at 73GHz.

Telenor Group and Huawei demonstrated 5G through the E-band (in the 71-76 GHz/81-86 GHz bands), with a maximum speed of 70Gbps. Furthermore, a Joint Desktop Study that will provide insights and learnings to identify necessary update steps from 4G to 5G technology in Telenor’s Network, will be operated through the Telenor and Huawei Joint Innovation […]

Turkcell has hit speeds of 70GBps by using 71.5-73.5GHz spectrum in its 5G trial with Huawei.

MegaFon achieved speeds of 35Gbps in network technology trials with Huawei, held in St Petersburg. The trial utilised 2GHz of bandwidth in the 70GHz ‘E-band’ and forms part of MegaFon’s 5G development plans. MegaFon plans to deploy ‘5G’ services covering limited zones in 2018, at the football World Cup in Russia.

Trial on novel transport solution for integrated fron-haul/back-haul networks. InterDigital, Inc. announced the successful trial and evaluation of the company’s millimeter wave (mmW) EdgeLin 60GHz solution and Fast-Forward 70GHz solution that meets new 5G transport requirements as defined by the various 5G standardization groups in 3GPP, ETSI, IEEE, and eCPRI. The solution proved the feasibility […]
