e UAE, the flagship telecom arm of global technology group e , has achieved a landmark milestone in 5G-Advanced technology. By successfully aggregating 6.35 GHz of total bandwidth across frequency ranges FR1 and FR2, with a particular focus on the upper 6 GHz band,
The breakthrough highlights the unique potential of this licensed mobile spectrum. Conducted on the live network, this innovation provides the vast capacity needed to accelerate the UAE's 10 Giga Nation Vision, positioning the UAE as one of the most advanced and hyperconnected nations in the world.
At the heart of the trial was the deployment of 256T256R Massive MIMO antennas on the upper 6 GHz band, combined with advanced techniques such as Inter-gNodeB Carrier Aggregation CA and MU-MIMO. By blending the lower and higher bands with upper 6 GHz, the network achieved multi-gigabit throughputs approaching 100 Gbps, proving this band's capability to deliver ultra-fast, reliable, and scalable connectivity for the future.
