My CNET colleague Eli Blumenthal does a great job of breaking down the basics of 5G. Millimeter-wave technology uses higher frequencies than previous generations, providing faster speeds and ...

The number of times per second that a radio wave radiates is referred to as its frequency. 5G, in particular, works through a number of different frequency bands. That means that it uses both low ...

Also of note, 5G comes in three different types: millimeter-wave, midband and low-band. Cellular home internet providers ...

Millimeter wave applications include communications, radar, radio astronomy, military and 5G cellular. The higher the frequency, the shorter the wavelength, the narrower the beam and the smaller ...
