[PDF] 5g vs 4g signal range

4G wavelengths have a range of about 10 miles. 5G wavelengths have a range of about 1,000 feet, not even 2% of 4G's range. So to ensure a reliable 5G signal, there needs to be a lot of 5G cell towers and antennas everywhere.

  • Does 4G or 5G have better range?

    5G vs 4G range
    5G technology uses a higher frequency than 4G (think of a shrill dog whistle versus a bass drum) to achieve faster speeds. However, these higher frequencies can't travel as far as 4G signals can, requiring as many as 3 to 10 times more towers to make 5G work.

  • How far can a 5G signal travel?

    The range of a 5G cell tower is 1 to 3 miles (1.6 to 5 kilometers) when transmitting low- and mid-band spectrum. Examples of the 5G spectrum bands used by cell towers are 600 MHz, 700 MHz, 850 MHz, 2.5 GHz, 3.5 GHz (CBRS), and 3.7 GHz (C-band).

  • Is 5G signal stronger than LTE?

    5G vs LTE Speed: LTE offers speeds of up to 100Mbps, while 5G can deliver speeds of up to 1Gbps. 5G vs LTE Coverage: LTE has widespread coverage, but 5G is still in the early stages of deployment. LTE vs 5G Capacity: LTE can support up to 1000 devices per cell, while 5G can support up to 10,000 devices per cell.
  • The comparison of 4G frequencies with 5G frequencies
    New frequency bands and spectrum were also added with the arrival of 4G, ranging from 600 MHz to 2.5 GHz. For 5G, the frequency spectrum of sub-6 GHz ranging between 450 MHz to 6 GHz and 24 GHz to 52 GHz are the frequency ranges of mmWave.
