5G in India

[Kyle Crane]

it's been 20 days since the new 5G radiation rules has come into place which allows telecos to use upto 5W of power to 5G BTS since 1st of Feb

has anyone seen any improvement in coverage and speed, or it's been the same as before?

Beerbiceps is still not in jail and you are asking about trivial stuff like improved network?

I guess power limit is being pushed to 10watt per square meter now

 

[Rickysin]

so good signal strength with 10w or less ?

 

[Kyle Crane]

5watt to 10watt should give more signal strength with cell infra but im not fully sure about the benefits.

I remember reading it somewhere that Vi took advantage of the 2025 5watt per square meter rule on there 5G rollout.

 

[Rickysin]

Well not sure if airtel has increased the wattage but on 5g SA i am getting -65 to -68 dbm signal. Might be they increased power for fastlane . Again its draining battery too much even with excellent signal strength
