Core Viewpoint - The introduction of 5G-A (5G-Advanced) represents a significant upgrade from traditional 5G, offering enhanced speed and lower latency, which will support various innovative applications and improve user experience [2][6]. Group 1: Technology and Performance - 5G-A achieves a theoretical peak rate of 10 Gbps, which is over five times faster than standard 5G, with a 9-fold improvement in connection speed and latency [2][3]. - The maximum data download speed increases from 1 Gbps in early 5G to 10 Gbps, while upload speeds rise from 100 Mbps to 1 Gbps, enabling extensive data applications [2][3]. - 5G-A reduces latency from milliseconds to sub-millisecond levels, crucial for applications requiring real-time data transmission, such as autonomous driving and remote surgeries [3]. Group 2: Infrastructure and Coverage - Shandong province plans to establish 30,000 5G base stations and over 50,000 5G-A base stations, focusing on key urban areas like Jinan and Qingdao for comprehensive coverage [4]. - As of now, Jinan has achieved continuous coverage in core urban areas, with 2,700 base stations already operational, and full coverage expected by the end of the year [4]. Group 3: Device Compatibility and User Experience - Current devices that support 5G-A include iPhone 15 and 16 series, along with most Android phones, but users must be in a covered area and have compatible service plans to see the 5G-A indicator [4]. - The network dynamically allocates bandwidth based on user demand without additional charges, ensuring optimal performance during high-demand situations [4]. Group 4: Applications and Future Prospects - 5G-A is expected to enhance various sectors, including smart manufacturing and low-altitude economy, by enabling high-precision positioning and reducing IoT costs [6]. - The technology supports immersive applications like XR (extended reality), holographic communication, and cloud gaming, significantly improving public service response times in emergency communications and telemedicine [6].
