According to documents filed with the FCC, Verizon has asked for permission to conduct market trials in the 28 GHz band in Houston and Cypress, Texas, Ann Arbor, Michigan, Brockton and Natick, Massachusetts, and near its Basking Ridge headquarters in Bernardsville, New Jersey. The carrier has asked for a six month permit for the trials, beginning January 2, 2017 and running through June 2.
Of course, Verizon isn’t the only one working on 5G trials.
AT&T recently announced a partnership with Intel on a millimeter wave 5G business trial in which it will provide a 5G network to power multiple experiences – including Internet access, VPN, Unified Communications applications, and 4K video streams – to one of Intel’s offices in Austin.
Sprint this week also indicated it is closing in on 1 gbps wireless speeds by using a combination of carrier aggregation, MIMO, 256-QAM, and its new High Performance User Equipment (HPUE) technology.
