New 5G NR Bands; Launches Second 5G White Paper Addressing Key Next
Steps for Initial Deployments
Skyworks Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ: SWKS), an innovator of high
performance analog semiconductors connecting people, places and
things, today announced that new solutions from its leadership
Sky5™ platform have been validated to enable the fast-approaching
rollout of 5G. Skyworks has launched several products that deliver
world-class performance in 5G New Radio (NR) Bands n77, n78 and n79
– frequencies that mobile operators plan to utilize to deploy next
generation cellular services. These devices represent the latest
additions to Skyworks’ expanding portfolio of connectivity
solutions specifically designed to operate across all 5G NR
spectrums worldwide.

Skyworks has successfully supported several live demonstrations
with Sky5™, authenticating performance to the new 5G NR standards
(3GPP Release 15). In particular, the Sky5™ suite exceeded
compliance for power, efficiency, error vector magnitude and
spectral emission requirements – all of which can be further
enhanced using wideband digital pre-distortion techniques.
“Skyworks is translating the promise of 5G into reality,” said
Joel King, vice president and general manager of Mobile Solutions
for Skyworks. “Our innovative Sky5™ platform is enabling up to a
100x increase in data transfer speeds versus 4G/LTE, near zero
latency and expanded carrier capacity. Leveraging our systems
expertise and operational scale, we are streamlining architectural
complexities for both network infrastructure and user equipment to
drive unprecedented mobile data experiences across a wide range of
end market applications.”
According to the GSMA, 5G will primarily support enhanced mobile
broadband in early deployments. Other usage cases for massive IoT
and critical communications will follow as operators seek to
address incremental opportunities, principally in key enterprise
verticals. By 2025, the GSMA expects 5G connections to reach 1.1
billion and forecasts overall operator revenue to reach $1.3
trillion.
Launches Second 5G White Paper
Skyworks’ second 5G white paper “5G New Radio Solutions:
Revolutionary Applications Here Sooner Than You Think” is now
available. This white paper expands upon Skyworks’ initial
successful publication “5G in Perspective: A Pragmatic Guide to
What’s Next” and offers an in-depth exploration of 5G challenges
and opportunities as well as practical connectivity solutions.
