5G performance over LTE for fixed wireless broadband service in densely populated areas

Many projections lead us to understand that, the arrival of 5G technology will completely transform fixed wireless broadband network deployments.

“Trials show that the technology’s superior performance over LTE will allow operators to deploy 5G for fixed wireless broadband service in densely populated areas,” says Khin Sandi Lynn, Industry Analyst at ABI Research.

Findings from ABI Research reveal that, growth of 4G LTE coverage and capacity is driving wireless service growth for fixed broadband access, while fiber-to-the-home (FTTH), xDSL, and cable technologies reach nearly 50% of global households. As 5G standardization approaches completion, the technology will significantly accelerate global fixed wireless deployments.
