5G embraces several aspects and different requirements in three major scenarios:eMBB | mMTC | uMTC

LTE-M/NB-IoT are fundamental to 5G mMTC!

The Three Tracks of 5G



The Three Tracks of 5G (continued)

• eMBB (enhanced Mobile Broadband)• First 5G focus• Greater bandwidth• Moderate latency improvements

• mMTC (massive Machine Type Communications)• Started with Rel. 13/14 LPWA development (eg NB-IoT)

• uRRLC (Ultra Reliable Low Latency Communications)• Extensions of above concept to achieve lower latency• Full URLLC will require 5G Core deployment

5G Impact on Certifications

As of today, very limited number of 5G GCF/PTCRB validated Test Cases• Lack of 5G devices slows down TC validation• New test platforms development/introduction (especially for mmWave)• ~500 validated TCs by year-end out of a full scope of ~1700 TCs (30%)

This goes on top of the current number of LTE validated TCs• Example: ~15000 validated TCs for a LTE Cat.18 multi-band module

Number of 5G TCs is expected to grow in the next months/years as the standard matures and new features will be supported by networks/devices



FCC finds 5G poses no new risk – Source: Mobile World Live, 9 Aug 2019

Does 5G Pose Health Risks?

US officials set public concerns about the health impacts of 5G aside, concluding there is nothing about the technology or the bands it operates in which would require new limits on radio frequency (RF) exposure.

On a call with journalists, senior FCC officials noted the US’ current RF standards for handheld devices in particular, are among the strictest in the world. They added a review of scientific evidence conducted by the Food and Drug Administration’s Centre for Devices and Radiological Health found no adverse health effects in humans caused by RF exposure at or under the current limits.

FN980m Development Phases

• Development of the FN980m 5G datacard goes through different phases as follows:

MKT_1 phase Aimed to bring up the LTE and 5G sub-6 radio interface. 5G mmWave not supported

MKT_2 phase First hardware that will converge to the final size 30 x 50mm.Connectors for mmWave antennas replaced with final version, after feasibility study completed on the MKT_1 phase.

ENG_1 phase: Additional refinements of the MKT_2 hardware. Will bring the necessary changes and tuning on the RF parts, mmWave connectors position will change. Pins positions antenna tuning and audio will be changed too.

ENG_2 phase: Final hardware version aimed to start certifications.

FN980m: ENG_1

Same specifications as for the MKT_2, but:

• Change of mmW antenna connectors position, to reduce insertion losses between transceiver and connectors

• MIPI control for external Antenna Tuner (LTE/5G sub-6) added

• LTE band B27 removal

• Only one external SIM interface available (UIM1).Can be used to connect two external SIMs to support DSSA/DSSS (dual standby / single active) by means of external SIM switch.

• Optional eSIM (connected to the same UIM1 interface)

• eSIM pinout changed, now compliant to ST micro WLCSP (was Infineon pin-out on the MKT_2). FYI: Gemalto, Idemia and G&D are all based on the WLCSP package and pin-out based on ST Micro.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• Q: How do I disable the 5G radio in FR1 or FR2 spectrum?• A: ETSI AT commands provide a method to enable 5G without distinction between FR1

and FR2 spectrum. RAT selection between 3G, LTE and 5G NR can be configured by means of 3GPP 27.007 AT command AT+WS46=[<n>] (3GPP TS 27.007 Rel 15), where <n> can be:

22 UTRAN only (3G only)28 E-UTRAN only (4G only)31 UTRAN and E-UTRAN (3G and 4G)36 NG-RAN only (5G)37 NG-RAN and E-UTRAN38 NG-RAN, E-UTRAN and UTRAN40 NG-RAN and UTRAN

• There is no distinction among NG-RAN in FR1 and FR2 bands



Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

• Q: How do I select PLMN?• A: Set command forces an attempt to select and register to the GSM/UMTS/EPS/5GS

network operator:+COPS=[<mode>[,<format>[,<oper>[,<AcT>]]]]

<AcT>: integer type; access technology selected…

• 10 E-UTRA connected to a 5GCN (see NOTE 5)• 11 NR connected to a 5GCN (see NOTE 5)• 12 NG-RAN• 13 E-UTRA-NR dual connectivity (see NOTE 6)

There is no distinction among NG-RAN in FR1 and FR2 bands

NOTE 5: 3GPP TS 38.331 [160] specifies the information which, if present, indicates that the serving cell is connected to a 5G CN. This value is not applicable in set command.NOTE 6: 3GPP TS 38.331 [160] specifies the information which, if present, indicates that the serving cell is supporting dual connectivity of E-UTRA with NR and is connected to an EPS core.
