Nokia Shows 10 Gbps Mobile Bandwidth at 73 GHz

If you have access to enough spectrum, at high-enough frequencies, plus sophisticated antenna technology, and only need to transmit at close distances, extraordinary bandwidth is possible.

Nokia Networks has shown the ability to transmit mobile signals at 10Gbps peak rates over the air at 73 GHz using Nokia mmWave gear at the Brooklyn 5G Summit, jointly organized by Nokia Networks and NYU.  

NTT Docomo and Nokia Networks earlier had shown the ability to transmit at 2 Gbps rates in the 70 GHZ band, using Nokia Networks mmWave technology, in an indoor setting.

“Utilizing higher frequency bands including millimeter wave  is key to deliver extremely high performance in 5G,” said Seizo Onoe, NTT DOCOMO CTO. “We believe that high-frequency spectrum shall be used not just for small cells as a means to complement the existing network, but also for building solid area coverage through coordination with existing lower frequency bands.”
