The article doesn’t state that at all actually. It just says, according to SpeedTest, China has deployed more of the spectrum already where as the US is only rolling out mid-band frequencies (as of 15 months ago). It says nothing about China having special frequencies not available to the US, nor does it (incorrectly) state that Huawei invented 5G.
You’re probably not familiar with the landscape of the US, but much of the country is rural which is why we have more users per tower since it isn’t financially advantageous for companies to roll out new towers where few people can use them.
… you don’t understand at all. I am not going to be able to explain it to you. There are no special spectrums. US equipment can only do mid band where as Huawei can also do high and low. That’s the problem. There’s no magic that you seem to think there is.
*Edit. Also this has nothing to do with how many towers there are. The towers near the airports were always there. Yet they interfered because USA can only do mid band. Had they been able to do low band there wouldn’t have been issues.
I think you may not understand the topic. We have low, mid, and high band frequencies here they’re just being rolled out at a different pace. I didn’t think there was any magic involved, I was just referencing the words that you wrote when you said China has bands that we don’t in the US (incorrect)
The issue with planes is that the altimeter uses a frequency near the band that was being rolled out and due to a lack of communication between airlines and internet service providers, nobody had tested whether it would cause issues with the altimeters. You seem to have misunderstood this issue as well as no ‘planes fell out of the sky,’ we still have 5G, and planes are still flying. They opted to take the safer route by temporarily canceling flights when they were unsure of the level of interference.
You’re not understanding what I’m saying. I’m saying the FCC currently cannot roll out other bands because their equipment doesn’t work. Yes, they have plans to once the equipment works, but currently they’re only rolling out mid-bands because that’s all they have. Listing the FCC’s failure doesn’t change that the US hasn’t been able to roll out the entire spectrum where as China did.
