Qualcomm's simulations of 5G networks show ludicrous speed gains
by from Techreport on (#3GTJ4)
Samsung's unveiling of its latest flagship Galaxy S9 Android smartphone is probabaly the big story of this year's Mobile World Congress in Barecelona. Qualcomm, maker of the largest bit of silicon in US-bound S9 handsets, also has some interesting demos in its booth, including results of simulations of next-generation mobile broadband networks that show what kind of speeds users might see when those systems roll out next year.
The company simulated Non-Standalone 5G New Radio (NSA 5G NR) networks in Frankfurt, Germany and San Francisco, California. Both simulations predicted huge increases in available bandwidth along with substantial reductions in latency, ...
