A new world’s record for 5G speeds of 1 terabit per second

Researchers from the 5G Innovation Center (5GIC) at the University of Surrey have set a new world’s record for 5G speeds of 1 terabit per second! This smashed the previous 5G speed record of 7.5GB/s thatSamsung achieved.

Professor Rahim Tafazolli said, “We have developed 10 more breakthrough technologies and one of them means we can exceed 1Tb/s wirelessly. This is the same capacity as fiber optics but we are doing it wirelessly.”

Granted, the 5G speeds of 1Tb/s were reached in lab conditions over a distance of 328 feet (100 meters) during tests that used transmitters and receivers built at Surrey. Yet Tafazolli said, “We want to be the first in the world to show such high speeds.”
