Samsung Electronics is the First to Develop a Core Technology for the 5G Mobile Communications

Samsung Electronics announced that it has developed a core technology to transmit and receive data in the latest 5G mobile communications environment, becoming the first company to do so in the world.

5G is the next generation network hundreds times faster than the current 4G mobile communications network. This will enable users to enjoy 3D movies, game and Ultra High Definition (UHD) contents using their smart devices.

Maximum transmission speed for the 5G mobile communications is expected to amount to dozens of Gbps. This allows transmission of a UHD movie within seconds.

Samsung Electronics succeeded in the development and preview of its technology which gives over 1Gbps transmission speed in the super-high frequency band of 28㎓ and up to 2㎞ transmission distance.
Technology to transmit and receive Giga level data using superhigh frequency (over 6㎓) was never before developed by any corporations or organizations globally.

Allowing for depletion of resources in mobile communications frequency and in order to realize much faster speed, 5G will be using a much higher band frequency than the current frequency of hundreds of ㎒~ several ㎓ used for mobile communications.

However in the super-high frequency band, issues like frequency loss and shorter transmission distance may occur. Samsung Electronics resolved this challenge with its adaptive array transmission reception technology using the 64 antenna elements.

Aiming commercialization by 2020, Samsung Electronics plans to research and develop in full-scale the core technologies for 5G mobile communications including adaptive array transmission reception in a superhigh frequency band.

Latest development by Samsung Electronics is expected to encourage further research for 5G mobile communications around the globe and thus speed up 5G related international standardization works and its service commercialization.

Race to win supremacy over the next generation mobile communications technology is getting intense with China setting up a government-led IMT-2020(5G) Promotion Group for 5G development in February and EU Executives making decision to invest 50 million Euros for this year alone to target service commercialization by 2020.

Success in developing an adaptive array transmission reception technology brought us closer to commercialization of a 5G mobile communications using super-high frequency band, remarked Kim Chang-yong, Head of DMC Research Institute (Vice President) at Samsung Electronics.

The Beginning: Understanding The Mobile Technologies Part-1


I started this blog to create a database of knowledge for people who seek answers. I have been associated with Samsung's Mobile R&D Center known as the Software Engineering Lab, India,  for past 2 years and previously with Microsoft as a Microsoft Student Parter 2009-2012. I  have learned quite a lot about Mobile Technology - not by training - but by individual effort and by utilizing the opportunities that were made available to me.

I have planned to write a series of blog-posts about Mobile Technologies. However, these blog-posts are simple and elegant answers for common questions. You won't find any of Samsung's or Microsoft's trade-secrets (if you are looking for one :P ). Moreover, these blog-posts are going to be about Mobile Technology in general not just about Samsung or Microsoft products.

So here are few of the blog-posts, i.e., the articles I am going to cover:

What is hacking w.r.t. Mobile Devices?
What is Firmware?
What is Flashing?
What is Rooting?
What is Jail Breaking?
and so on....


Hope you learn and enjoy the articles. Any feedback whether positive or negative are welcome. I would really love to learn from your experiences and my mistakes.

However, you need to understand that everything on this blog represents my interpretation and understandings and you are free to have your own opinion. Also, my interpretation and/or understanding might be wrong or at the very least a bit off-course in a few cases. Though, I try my best to make sure about the accuracy of my posts, I am human - just like you (I sincerely assume you are one :P), and hence prone to mistakes. I know for sure, I am not God (only He is free from mistakes) :)
