Called 5G New Radio (NR) prototype system by Qualcomm, it’s used to test, demonstrate, and trial 5G designs to drive the data standard adoption. Qualcomm has just announced a new prototype and trial system for 5G connectivity. The 5G NR prototype system operates in the sub-6GHz spectrum bands and is being utilized to showcase the company's 5G designs to efficiently achieve multi-gigabit per second data rates and low latency. The prototype system will closely track 3GPP progress to help mobile operators and industry players trial their 5G service offerings. Designs implemented on the prototype system are being utilized to drive 3GPP standardization.
