The New 5G Mobile Communications Technology

  • In densely populated areas (large cities), transmission cells with a maximum centre distance of 300m are typically required. Here around 3,000 to 5,000 5G transmission towers are required. In rural areas the distances are larger, max. 1km.
  • In comparison, the number of required 5G transmitters is 10 times higher than with the current 3G or LTE technology. Studies concerning the necessary German 5G network construction show a demand of 750,000 to 1.2 million 5G mobile transmission towers.
  • Each transmitter needs a back-up battery to bridge power network failures. Compared to conventional lead-acid batteries, Voltabox lithium-ion batteries are lighter, smaller, more durable and maintenance-free.
