6. What is 5G?

5G simply refers to the newest mobile wireless
standard based on the IEEE 802.11ac standard of
broadband technology. Rather than faster Internet
connection speeds, 5G aims at a higher capacity than
current 4G LTE, allowing a higher number of mobile
broadband users per area unit, and allowing
consumption of data quantities in gigabyte per second.

7. Features of 5G technology
● High & increased peak bit rate (Up to 10Gbps connections
to endpoints in the field)
● Larger data volume per unit area (i.e. high system spectral
efficiency)
● High capacity to allow more devices connectivity
concurrently and instantaneously (100 percent coverage)
● More bandwidth
● Lower battery consumption

8. Features of 5G technology
● Better connectivity irrespective of the geographic region
● A larger number of supporting devices (10 to 100x number
of connected devices)
● Lower cost of infrastructural development
● Higher reliability of the communications (One millisecond
end-to-end round trip delay)
● Machine to machine communication, also known as the
Internet of things (IOT)

10. How 5G works?

11. How 4G works?
● 4G connection uses macrocells
(normal mobile tower).
● Lower frequency band used to send
message.
● These towers send signal in each
direction which is caught by another
device with which we want to
connect.
● It uses optical fibres to move signal to
another towers around the world. 11

12. How does 5G work?
12
● In 5G, the network service area is
divided into small geographical areas
called cells.
● All the 5G wireless devices in a cell
communicate by radio waves with a
local antenna and low power automated
transceiver (transmitter and receiver) in
the cell.

13. 13
How does 5G work?
● 5G works on previously untouched
radio frequency part of the network
works on a band known as sub 6
which is from 600 MHz to 6 GHz.
● But 5G can go beyond that resulting in
higher data rates and performance
with the trade-off of range that is with
so much data it cannot move far also
lowering the wall penetration of signal.

How does 5G work?

16. 16
● For that why we need more
number of small cells installed
closer to each other than the
traditional mobile towers.
● These cell sites can beam signal
to specific locations where
needed more rather than
everywhere in any direction.
How does 5G work?

17. 17
Beamforming or spatial filtering is a signal
processing technique used in sensor arrays for
directional signal transmission or reception This
is achieved by combining elements in an
antenna array in such a way that signals at
particular angles experience constructive
interference while others experience
destructive interference. The improvement
compared with omnidirectional
reception/transmission is known as the
directivity of the array.

20. 20
How does 5G work?
● Due to closer cells network
become dense and increase
capacity of network.
● 5G can support up to a million
devices per square kilometer,
while 4G supports only up to
100,000 devices per square
kilometer.

21. 5G spectrum bands
● Low-band spectrum
○ Expect peak speeds up to
100Mbps
○ Widest range and high
penetration
● Mid-band spectrum –
○ Expect peak speeds up to 1Gbps
○ Balanced range and penetration
● High-band spectrum –
○ Expect peak speeds
up to 10Gbps
○ Low range and
penetration

25. Applications of 5G

26. 1. Autonomous vehicle
26
● Autonomous vehicles are being developed
empowered with the algorithms and use
cases of Machine Learning. But, 5G and its
speed, low latency, and further deployment
can bring this dream into a reality.
● The prime goal behind autonomous vehicle
communication is the vehicle-to-everything
network. This is responsible for the vehicle to
act automatically regarding the positioning of
objects around the vehicle.

27. 2. Support to artificial intelligence
27
● Artificial Intelligence is redefining machine
capacities and power. Today’s digital world
is meaningless without bulks of data, and it
can only be accelerated by the fastest
network capabilities and 5G can really
trigger the process.
● Additionally, smart cities are getting
sensors, and data from these smart sensors
need to be routed in such a way that they
can be deployed at the moment of need.

28. 3. IOT in Industry Use Cases
28
● 5G will enable connecting doctors and
patients promptly. Additionally, the science
of IoT wearables can alert the patient
according to the symptoms that the patients
are experiencing.
● Farming fields should have sensors for
monitoring purposes. And, they would
convey data regarding the necessity of
water, pest management, disease control,
etc.

29. 4. Virtual Reality & Augmented Reality
29
● Because of 5G nothing crucial will be
stored on the device. Everything will be on
cloud, we can fetch them quickly by 5G.
● The baseline of virtual reality and
augmented reality is spontaneous action
and reaction. Otherwise, it will be
impossible to experience a realistic
process. Apart from gaming, enjoying
sports events and virtual reality with 5G
will be extremely amazing.

31. Current development
and availability of 5G

Worldwide deployment of 5G
● South Korea was the first country to implement 5G in April 2019.
● The 4 major carriers AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, and Verizon have
launched low-band spectrum 5G services at the end of 2019
across several states of USA.
● Philippines was the first country in Southeast Asia to start 5G
network after Globe Telecom commercially launched its 5G data
plans to customers in June 2019.
● China, United Kingdom, Japan, Australia and Germany have
also implemented the 5G network.

5G in the Philippines
● The operators have launched 5G mobile networks in 2020, not long after the Thai
operators.
● Globe initially launched 5G technology for Fixed Wireless Access (FWA) in
selected towns in June 2019, followed by 5G enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB)
in February 2020 in Metro Manila, at the start available to premium “Globe
Platinum” customers.
● Smart launched 5G network in July 2020, originally targeting postpaid subscribers
in Metro Manila that had Smart-certified handsets — including devices from
Huawei, Samsung, RealMe and Vivo — and 5G-activated SIM.
● Both operators utilized spectrum in the 3,500 MHz band, which is considered the
sweet spot in terms of 5G network capacity and coverage.
● Data shows that Smart recorded 200.43 Mbps median download/19.67 Mbps
median upload speed in Q1 2022 ahead of Globe’s 121.29 Mbps download/ 9.93
Mbps upload.

35. 35
5G in the Philippines
● Country-level 5G Availability almost doubled within a space of a year — from 9.4% in
Q1 2021 to 18.1% in Q1 2022. Part of this is related to easing of the Right of Way
(RoW) rules, which were adapted and rewritten in March 2021, when the Department
of Public Works and Highways (DPWH) issued an order lifting the ban on the
construction of critical infrastructure, particularly cell sites, along national roads.
● Globe added 390 new sites in the first three months of 2022, extending its 5G
network reach to 95% of NCR (National Capital Region) and 84% of key cities in
Visayas and Mindanao.
● DITO selected Nokia to deploy 5G services in the island of Mindanao in May 2021 to
augment an existing partnership on 4G roll out. In March 2022, Dito started the
rollout of its 5G home Wi-Fi service pilot in 146 villages in the Metro Manila area.
Villages in the City of Manila, Caloocan City, and Quezon City will be the first to
access up to 500 Mbps of download speed through the Dito 5G Home WiFi Starter
Kit. DITO 5G network isn’t available widely, however, some 5G tests in Caloocan,
where the operator reached a 5G median download speed of 512.66 Mbps in Q1
2022.

38. Conclusion
5G Wireless Technology is more intelligent
technology, which will interconnect the entire world
without limits. It is designed to provide unbelievable
and extraordinary data capabilities, unhindered call
volumes, and vast data broadcast. Moreover,
governments and regulators can use this technology
as an opportunity for good governance and can
create healthier environments, which will definitely
encourage continuing investment in 5G, the next-
generation technology.
