Samsung, Qualcomm 5G reached new milestone in download speeds
Samsung is an explorer in 5G technology. Its Galaxy S10 5G, launched in early 2019, is the world’s first 5G-enabled smartphone. The company is constantly raising the 5G limit. With Qualcomm, the Korean giant achieved the industry’s fastest independent (SA) 5G download speed of 8.08Gbps.
According to the company, it uses the new Radio Dual Connectivity (NR-DC) technology to combine mmWave and mid-band 5G spectrum to achieve speeds. It collects 800 MHz mmwave spectrum and 100 MHz mid-band spectrum.
Samsung tested the speed in its lab in Plano, Texas. The test was performed using its fully virtualized RAN and core, mmWave 5G compact macro and massive MIMO (Multiple Input Multiple Output) radios. The latter features 256 quadrature amplitude modulation (QAM) technology. The test devices achieved Samsung 8.08Gbps download speed with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon X65 5G modem-RF system.
It has been almost three years since 5G technology became available to consumers. But the next generation wireless connectivity standard still looks like a new development in mobile technology. Probably because 5G is not yet widely available worldwide. Most smartphone users worldwide still do not have access. And 5G may take a few more years to become universal.
The Korean giants, along with Verizon and Qualcomm, reached 711 Mbps upload speeds in lab testing using integrated bands of mmWave spectrum. So the latest milestone of 8.08Gbps 5G download speeds represents a continuous improvement.
