Initial phone integration has focused on sub 6 GHz antennas, and millions of subscribers around the world already have 5G mobile phone contracts.

Some of the bands are still under discussion, and the exact frequency designations will vary geographically. Two frequency ranges are of most interest: frequency range 1 for sub 6 GHz bands communication and frequency range 2 for communication at the millimeter (mm) wave frequencies above 24 GHz. This combination will not only provide for new video formats like 360 degree video (video traffic is expected to account for 73% of all mobile data traffic by 2023), but also enable new technologies such as autonomous driving, augmented or virtual reality interaction, and a tactile internet with applications in fields ranging from industry automation and transport systems to healthcare, education and gaming.Īntenna design for mobile phones has always been a challenging topic for engineers, and designing antennas to support the new 5G frequency bands will raise the bar further.

The promise of higher speed for high data rate communication and lower latency for real-time interaction is alluring for users. Looking for everything Antenna Magus?
