5G Deployment Options for Wireless Networks

Modern 5G Deployment options for Wireless Networks will include Macro Cells, Small Cells, Beamforming, mmWave and more

5G Deployment Diversity

Greater Deployment Diversity will be necessary to meet user demands for high speed networking in urban, suburban and rural locations.

5G Deployment using mmWave, Beamforming, Small Cells, millimeter wave

– 5G NR mmWave – offers nx10 Gigabit 5G
– 5G NR Sub-6 GHz and LTE coverage – offers nx1 Gigabit 5G
– Ubiquitous LTE: Gigabit LTE, VoLTE, ULL

Accelerating network densification:

5G Deployment using mmWave, Beamforming, Small Cells, millimeter wave

– Existing LTE deployments
– Automotive -(C-V2X)
– Enterprise
– Industrial

Key challenges for 5G include achieving consistent and uniform speeds to users across all regions of metro, suburban and rural. Otherwise “hot zones” with high speed rapidly drop off in capacity as users move away from base stations.

Small Cells and 5G Deployment

Small cells are integral to new 5G network architectures and 5G deployment. 5G Small Cells may operate in sub-6GHz (FR1) or mmWave (FR2) bands depending on coverage and capacity demands

Private 5G Network Deployments

The rise of industrial & warehouse applications of 5G will necessitate “private 5G” deployments with 5G Core “NextGen Core” installed on the premises, for ultra high availability and low latency.
