Globe Telecoms has announced the use of next-generation antennas to facilitate faster internet speeds, particularly the 4G (fourth generation) acceleration and 5G (fifth generation) evolution.
In a statement, Globe said this will be the first in the world as the company completed the deployment of a new series of antennas that efficiently enables the acceleration of 4G, and the evolution of 5G technology — a step that seeks to boost the company's 4G and 5G network and ensure energy efficiency.
It added that this latest solution will be crucial for a pervasive 4G/5G experience, given Globe's accelerated 4G/5G rollouts. The antenna adopts enhanced multi-array modules, ultra-high integration architecture and full-band technology.
The statement also said that the ultra-resolution beam technology provides high-precision beamforming for higher multiple-input multiple-output (MIMO) performance and a 15-percent increase in network capacity. MIMO uses multiple transmitters and receivers for simultaneous data transfer.
The powerful configuration also allows simplified deployment in one antenna, with greater efficiency at 30 percent, a first in the industry. Since the antenna is smaller than the traditional design, it makes installation easier and faster even on cell sites with limited space.
