Qualcomm unveiled X50 5G modem at 2016 4G/5G Summit in Hong Kong. The X50 5G modem supports download speeds of up to 5Gbps which is 5x faster than the fastest 4G modem. It uilizes wide bandwidths available in the 28 GHz millimeter wave (mmWave) band combined with advanced signal processing technologies.
The X50 5G modem can be paired with a Qualcomm Snapdragon processor which has an integrated Gigabit LTE modem and can work together with it via dual connectivity. In addition to supporting 4G LTE and mmWave 5G, the complete 4G/5G multi-mode platform is designed to help provide dual-connectivity to both (so a mobile device can connect simultaneously over both generations of technology) to achieve seamless mobility between the two.
The X50 5G can connect using up to 800 MHz of bandwidth via 8×100 MHz carrier aggregation. Using advanced multiple input, multiple output (MIMO) techniques such as adaptive beamforming and beam tracking, the Snapdragon X50 5G modem can extend the range of mmWave transmissions to non-line-of-sight scenarios, and support mobility.
