Qualcomm recently demonstrated the first millimeter wave connection over a 5G Standalone (SA) network, reaching peak downloads speeds of 10Gbps, but is still keen to emphasize the potential of existing Non-Standalone (NSA) networks to deliver significantly higher bit-rates both in the uplink and downlink. With this objective, Qualcomm has just published a report conducted by US-based provider of wireless analysis and consultancy Signals Research Group (SRG) of 5G mmWave performance in Tokyo during late April 2022. This was significant because Japan has one of the world’s largest mmWave deployments comprising 20,000 5G mmWave sites, mostly in dense urban locations. Furthermore, as an early deployer, Japan provides a readymade test bed for assessing improvements in performance resulting from optimization of spectrum…
