Overview of 5G

What is 5G?

With expected peak download speeds of about 100 times faster than 4G, eliminating most of the latency and being able to connect a huge number of IoT devices; 5G will have a tremendous impact on how we live, play and work.

Currently, 5G non-standalone is based on the foundation of existing 4G. It uses slightly different modulation techniques, in some cases different frequency bands, with all the coordination and call handling done on 4G. The different modulation techniques allow for more data in a single bandwidth.

Why is 5G compliance testing important to your business?

The industry’s race to 5G wireless is in full force, with a number of 5G devices already in market. And while analysts say that reaching the full potential of 5G is still several years away, being slow to incorporate 5G capabilities will be a competitive disadvantage.

The implications of 5G adoption are immense: Analysts estimate that 5G technologies could generate $12.3 trillion in sales activity worldwide across multiple industries and support 22 million jobs by 2035. To find out whether and how manufacturers are taking advantage of 5G, Newsweek Vantage surveyed 300 manufacturing executives around the world. In this report, commissioned by UL Solutions and with guidance from Greg Corlis, Emerging Technology Leader, KPMG, and Maan Ghanma, Director of Smart Solutions in the Consumer, Medical and Information group at UL Solutions, the statistical findings of the survey were supplemented by interviews and written answers from ABB, Audi, Bosch, GE, and Siemens. In addition to this, AT&T provided the perspective of a major 5G telecom operator. Download our research study here.

Market requirements

Government agencies on a global level are working to allocate additional frequency bands. Tapping into the mmWave frequency ranges has been one of the major differences when compared with previous cellular generations. The allocated and to be allocated mmWave frequencies will enable 5G to deliver on the promise for a very high speed and low latency, bringing birth to applications yet to be realized. However, mmWave also brings new challenges when seeking to meet global compliance requirements.

5G wireless testing and certification

We offer comprehensive testing, certification and global market access (GMA) solutions for 5G enabled wireless devices. We test and certify to worldwide standards in areas such as electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), specific absorption rate (SAR), interoperability, quality of service (QoS) and radio frequency (RF). 5G will drive the expansion of IoT to bring new services to diverse market segments, and our experts are prepared to help support you through this transition with confidence.

Our dedicated GMA experts help simplify multiple market compliance by bundling product tests and certifications to meet all relevant national and regional market standards.
