Remarks
1Gbps peak, Sustained Tput - < 100 Mbps. Using outdoor
antenna
Max tput depending on video resolution. 50 Mbps enough
upto 4K display
Feasible avg. throughput much higher than LTE-A(Pro) in wide
areas; delayed deployment due to coverage requirements
5G modem availability and wide area coverage beyond dense
urban areas delays commercial realization
50 Mbps enough for 4K display (2K per eye), 8K requires > 100
Mbps, 5G VR HMDs availability delays realization
High throughput for 3D and HD maps at scale needs 5G
