After a successful 5G field trial , Airtel said that they are ready to start rolling out 5G services across the nation.

Airtel will be India's first Telecom Company to successfully demonstrate live 5G service over a commercial network in Hyderabad.

• Airtel worked with its equipment partner Ericsson to enable this new experience.
• Airtel claims that its 5G network is capable of delivering 10x speed , 10x latency and 100x concurrency when compared to existing technologies.

The 5G network test was conducted by using Oppo Reno 5 pro and Oppo find X2 pro smartphones and they gave a speed of 3Gbps. This will allow users to download a full movie in matter of seconds.

Airtel used a sub-6GHz NSA (non-standalone) network operating on the 1,800MHz band for the 5G test. Its equipment is also compatible with 1800/2100/2300MHz and sub-GHz bands (800/900 MHz).

"The moment we receive -government approvals, and we have the right spectrum bands and in adequate quantities, we'll be able to roll this [5G] out immediately,” Gopal Vittal(MD and CEO)Bharti Airtel, said during a virtual media briefing.

Dynamic spectrum is a sharing technology that allows 4G and 5G networks to run on the same spectrum. Due to this Airtel will face to obstacles in rolling out 5G services in India in few months.

Reliance Jio has also conducted tests on 5G network but maxxed out at 1 Gbps. Reliance will also launch its 5G services in mid 2021.
