5G Standalone mmWave for Fixed Wireless Access

SAN DIEGO. Using knowledge from China’s IMT-2020 (5G) Promotion Group, Qualcomm Technologies and ZTE created a standalone mmWave solution (26GHz band) powered by a Snapdragon X70 5G Modem-RF System Mobile Test Platform combined with ZTE’s infrastructure and supported by a DSUUU structure.

The solution achieved close to 7 Gbps downlink peak rate and 2.1Gbps uplink.

Without having to use an anchor on LTE (sub-6GHz) range, the solution has “faster peak speeds, more available connections, lower latency, and higher throughput,” says, Durga Malladi, senior vice president and general manager, cellular modems and infrastructure, Qualcomm Technologies, Inc.
