The publisher just completed its twelfth 5G benchmark study, this time with a focus on the AT&T Band n5 and Band n260 networks which support downlink and uplink PDCP split bearer combining.

Key Points: 
  • The publisher just completed its twelfth 5G benchmark study, this time with a focus on the AT&T Band n5 and Band n260 networks which support downlink and uplink PDCP split bearer combining.
  • AT&T has 25 MHz of Band n5 in Indianapolis and 210 MHz in Dallas, thanks to DSS.
  • The Tradeoff: As is the case with downlink PDCP combining, leveraging a low-band 5G NR carrier means the smartphone can't use a low-band LTE carrier.
  • The publisher put things into context by looking at how much data a phone can receive/send for a given increase in temperature.

For this endeavor they collaborated with Accuver Americas and Spirent Communications to conduct an independent benchmark study of the Rakuten LTE, 5G, and 5G mmWave networks in Tokyo, Japan.

Key Points: 
  • For this endeavor they collaborated with Accuver Americas and Spirent Communications to conduct an independent benchmark study of the Rakuten LTE, 5G, and 5G mmWave networks in Tokyo, Japan.
  • The 5G portion of the Rakuten network leverages the Open RAN network architecture.
  • There was concurrent LTE and 5G data transfers in the downlink and uplink directions (PDCP combining), including with 5G mmWave.
  • 5G mmWave performance was consistent with the RF conditions, but the RF conditions where we found mmWave signals were never optimal.
