This is a subject I am very familiar with. I've been in Telecommunications for the past 20yrs and have watched everything evolve over that period. Let me break down 5G for you.
Frequency
A quick Google search (also training I have been taking at work) will reveal the plans to use the 600MHz to 6GHZ.
Here comes the scary part. The new 5G frquency being used is........(drum roll please).....the old UHF analog TV channels.
OMG we are all going to die!!!
Take a look at this frequency list. Channel 37 to 51 on your old analog TV will be the freq used for the new technology. I deal with this personally everyday while building and testing new 5G sites. The old TV stations have taken this many years to finally get (most) of the spectrum/frequencies cleared.
So it must be the millimeter frequency....right?!?!?!
Millimeter wave spectrum is the band of spectrum between 30 GHz and 300 GHz. So what has that been used for in the past?
There it is folks. Right in the Microwave/Satellite range.
Why aren't we all dead already?
These are not some new crazy frequencies we've never tested. They have been used for many years and different applications.
Someone please explain to me how 5G is going to kill us. I would love to hear your explanation. I did not go into how the antennas are tuned or highest possible power output by the radios....but can if need be. So let's hear it!!!
Proud member of #steemsilvergold! We will make it through 5G!!!!
