The presentation gives an overview of what the 5G technology is all about and the 5G market size in Netherlands. Why we chose Netherlands? Because Netherlands leads Europe in terms of new technology adoption. It has the highest 4G penetration and internet penetration rate in Europe. And we expected the trend to continue when 5G is launched, most likely by end of 2019. 5G will change a lot of things, however the impact is expected to be the most in the Internet of Things (IoT) space. In this report we estimate the market size of both retail subscribers as well as the commercial subscribers. Contact us to order your copy. Created by www.perspectivesansights.com.

What is 5G?
In simple terms, 5G is the fifth generation of mobile wireless technology (based on wireless standard 802.11n), which like
its predecessors has been developed to delivery faster network speed.

5G Technologies Involved
Large-scale MIMO Antennas
Significantly higher peak throughput per
connection in the radio network, and wider
coverage as compared to beam forming.
New Multiplexing and Coding Schemes
Advanced waveforms – based on orthogonal
frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) and
also non-orthogonal multiple access
approaches (NOMA) are being developed to
reduce latency and increase capacity.
New Network Architectures
New architectures target to increase speed of
digital processing and reduce the distance that
signals need to travel within the network. NFV
(virtualization) and SDN are being used to
achieve this.
Beam-forming Antennas
Radio signal is focused to a narrow beam, to
offset the effect of reduced transmission of
very high frequency carriers. Involves high RAN
CAPEX.
Antenna Transmission
Complementary Higher Frequency
Bands
Focus on using frequency bands above 6GHz
(incl. millimetre wave, i.e., above 30GHz) to
complement antenna development, enable
wider spectrum.
MIMO – (multiple input, multiple
output)
An efficient transmission technology
used in modern wireless communication
that uses multiple antennas for
transmission and reception

MIMO with very high number of
antennas is called Massive MIMO.

Massive MIMO antenna
T-Mobile Netherlands is the first provider
in Netherlands to activate a Massive
MIMO antenna.
Salient Features:
1. Is integrated with the existing 4.5G LTE
Advanced Pro network at the
Leidseplein in Amsterdam
2. Developed in partnership with Huawei
Achieved 600% network capacity
improvement
Test Site
DAEL set-up a 5G test site in partnership
with Huawei.
Salient Features:
1. 5G test site at the roof of the University
of Groningen
2. Developed to allow students and other
collaborators to learn from the work and
demonstrate their own innovations
Network operators in Netherlands have been developing the technology to prepare for the 5G launch and
Huawei is playing a key role across the country. A couple of examples include:
Deployed Ericsson Radio System equipment
