Ericsson and MediaTek demo shows global ecosystem support for 6 GHz licensed 5G band
Mid-band spectrum delivers high-capacity 5G wide-area coverage. However, mobile data growth and a variety of existing and new 5G use cases urge the need for additional mid-bands. Networks will require, on average, 2 GHz of mid-band spectrum per country towards the end of the decade, according to GSMA, and 6 GHz is a critical resource and, in many countries, the only one. To this end, Ericsson and MediaTek have joined forces to achieve an industry-first, 3GPP-compliant data call on 6 GHz 5G NR as part of efforts to build a global ecosystem for this spectrum.
