First FR3 Research Results and Best Paper Award for ComNets Dortmund at IEEE MNC 2026
balances coverage and capacity, bridging the gap between the established ranges FR1 (< 7 GHz) and FR2 (> 24 GHz). Using extensive FR1 and FR2 measurements from large-scale industrial environments, the authors [...] maintains connectivity at 99.4 % of receiver positions while delivering far higher throughput than FR1, and scales more efficiently than FR2, requiring fewer transmitters to achieve a comparable target coverage …
