Coverage evaluation of 7-15 GHz bands from existing sites
Spectrum within the upper-mid range from 7 to 15 GHz is regarded as the “Golden Bands” for 6G due to the potential availability of wider spectrum than that in FR1 for high throughput, as well as the more favorable propagation characteristics of the frequencies as compared to millimeter waves in FR2. In this paper, we provide an analysis comparing the coverage at 3.5, 7 and 13 GHz bands from existing urban macro cell sites.
