n12 (700 MHz)

The n12 band is a Frequency Division Duplexing (FDDFDD: A communication technology that uses separate frequency bands for transmitting and receiving operations. This technique enables simultaneous bi-directional communication by allocating one frequency band for upstream (transmission from the user equipment to the base station) and another distinct…) band utilised in 5G NR5G NR: 5G was developed with three broad use case families in mind: enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB), massive machine-type communications (mMTC) and ultra-reliable low-latency communications (URLLC). eMBB focuses on across-the-board enhancements to the data rate, latency, user density, capacity and… networks, with a central frequency around 700 MHz. Originally allocated for television broadcasting, it has been repurposed for mobile communication and has played a significant role in 4G LTE4G LTE: 4G LTE (Long Term Evolution) or the E-UTRAN (Evolved Universal Terrestrial Access Network), introduced in 3GPP Rel. 8, is the radio access component of the Evolved Packet System (EPS) - a purely IP based mobile network standard. As an evolution to 3G UMTS, 4G LTE shares many similarities, such as… networks, especially in North America. Now it has been made available for 5G deployment. Its lower frequency range allows for excellent coverage and signal penetration, making it well-suited for widespread coverage in rural and remote areas, as well as indoor coverage in urban areas. As n12 overlaps with other 700 MHz bands such as the popular n28 band, its usage is generally restricted to countries in North America.
