Samsung has announced that it was able to achieve 940MB/second or 7.5Gbps data transmission rate on expreimental 5G network. This was achieved by the company at a stationary environment.
In addition, the company has also recorded uninterrupted and stable connection at 1.2 Gbps, or 150 MB per second, in a mobile environment from a vehicle travelling at over 100 km/h. The mobile 5G testing was conducted from a vehicle racing at high speeds on a 4.35km professional outdoor race track.
Samsung said that both the stationary and mobile tests were conducted over a 28GHz 5G network. The company credits the “Hybrid Adaptive Array Technology” that boosts the range of the signal. It uses millimeter wave frequency bands to enable the use of higher frequencies over greater distances.

“We will continue to build upon these milestones and develop advanced technologies that contribute to the 5G standard. In addition to leveraging our own global R&D capabilities, we will also continue to cooperate with other industry leaders and research centers across the world. Whether you are talking about mobile devices, the cloud, or the Internet of Things, the demand for 5G telecommunications standard and its supporting technologies will continue to grow.”
said ChangYeong Kim, Head of DMC R&D Center at Samsung Electronics.
The recent achievements recorded a seven-fold increase upon testing results from May 2013, when Samsung achieved 1Gbps over a 28GHz 5G network.
