FAQ's

Is FWA feasible in 5G SA architecture?

Yes it is. While radio transmission in the mm-Wave bands is inherently lossy and also highly sensitive to environmental changes (foliage, snow, rain, etc.), MNOs and service providers can plan for smaller cell sizes that will result in increased infrastructure cost per household passed.

How is FWA in 5G mmW bands feasible?

In mmW bands Analog/Hybrid beamforming allows for narrow beam beamforming. These narrow beams also enable a higher density of users without causing interference. While mmW penetration through common building materials - including newer types of glass - is low, Customer Premise Equipment (CPE) with antenna’s external to the home or office can dramatically mitigate signal degradation.
