Liquid Crystal Technology Delivers Reliable Coverage for mmWave 5G Applications
Liquid crystal smart antennas are a breakthrough innovation for mmWave 5G applications. The liquid crystal technology is being used to develop phased array smart antennas that address the challenges faced by commercial mmWave 5G end-use cases. Challenges such as signal penetration, limited range of mmWave, and high infrastructure investment are hampering the growth of the smart antenna market. Hence, companies are increasing their focus on advanced technologies including beam-steering for effective coverage with the help of mmWave 5G.
Signal penetration is potentially challenging with mmWave 5G, since mmWave is easily blocked by buildings and poor weather. The limited range of mmWave is another roadblock for market expansion, since these frequencies only have a range of around 300 meters, which is significantly less than 4G. This has led to the demand for more equipment to deliver consistent and reliable coverage using liquid crystal smart antennas.
