New 5G technology hits upload speeds of 273 megabits per second – TVBEurope

Most smartphones and home broadband services currently average upload speeds of 100 Mbps

Vodafone Deutschland, Xiaomi and Qualcomm Technologies have achieved peak upload speeds of 273 megabits per second in tests in Germany and Spain.

Most smartphones and home broadband services currently average upload speeds of 100 Mbps, said the companies.

The test was carried out in Vodafones 5G+ (standalone) network in Hanover with silicon technology from Qualcomm (Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 Mobile Platform) and the upcoming flagship smartphone from Xiaomi.

It employed a new process called Uplink Carrier Aggregation with TX Switching, which combines several transmission channels for data transmission, said the companies. Both the smartphone and the cellular antenna must support bundling of the uplink channels.

The new bundling methods will allow videos and files to be uploaded to social networks and the cloud almost twice as fast as before, said Tanja Richter, head of technology at Vodafone.

Technological developments like these are important so that our networks can meet the growing demand for cloud storage, video streaming, augmented and virtual reality applications and master multiplayer gaming at the highest quality.
