How to improve coverage for 5G mmWave

Not all 5G is created equal. 5G low-band operates at 600-2200 MHz, 5G mid-band at 2.5/3.5 GHz, and 5G high-band at 24-40 GHz. Low band is excellent for wireless coverage but doesn’t deliver much bandwidth. High-band (also known as mmWave, or millimeter wave) may deliver blazingly fast broadband, but a cell tower typically only covers […]
