AT&T Labs partners with Nokia to make industry-first 5G Standalone uplink, based on 5G Airscale improving upload speeds by 250 percent
This technology will provide high-speed mobile broadband for both downlink and uplink in stadiums, airports, and other high-density venues


“The test was conducted in AT&T labs with Nokia’s 5G AirScale portfolio and MediaTek’s 5G M80 mobile test platform. We aggregated our low-band n5 and our mid-band n77 spectrum. Compared to our low-band n5 alone, we saw a 100% increase in uplink throughput by aggregating our low-band n5 with 40MHz of our mid-band n77. Taking it a step further, we achieved a 250% increase aggregating 100MHz of n77.
