FactFlash: 5G/IOT For Not So Dummies™️
>> The radius of the cells below 6 GHz decreases, thus increasing the surrounding interference. Actually, already in LTE the problem is not the coverage or capacity but the interference. Accordingly, the entire network architecture is changing from trying to get complete coverage into mainly controlling the interference. FeICIC solution in LTE is one example about this.
