5G Overview:

  1. Frequency Spectrum: 5G operates across three spectrum bands:
    • Low-band (sub-1GHz)
    • Mid-band (1GHz - 6GHz)
    • High-band (mmWave, 24GHz and higher).
  2. Key Features:
    • Enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB): Provides faster speeds and more capacity.
    • Ultra-Reliable Low Latency Communications (URLLC): Enables applications like autonomous vehicles and remote surgery.
    • Massive Machine Type Communications (mMTC): Connects a large number of devices with minimal power consumption.
  3. Network Slicing: 5G introduces the concept of network slicing, allowing operators to create multiple virtual networks with different characteristics on a single physical infrastructure. This is crucial for catering to diverse use cases.
  4. MIMO and Beamforming: 5G utilizes advanced multiple-input, multiple-output (MIMO) antennas and beamforming technologies to improve spectral efficiency and increase capacity.
  5. Core Network Evolution: 5G uses a new core network architecture known as the 5G Core (5GC), designed to be more flexible, scalable, and capable of supporting diverse services.
  6. Security: 5G incorporates enhanced security mechanisms, including improved encryption algorithms, mutual authentication, and secure network slicing.
