Samsung has been testing out its own infrastructure for the next generation of wireless and the company has been able to achieve jaw-dropping data transfer speeds using high frequency signal.</p>  <p>Samsung has reported speeds of up to 7.5Gbps (940MB per second) stationary and approximately 1.2Gbps (150MB per second) while travelling around a race track at 100km/h (testing the environment that sees consumers on moving vehicles). Being able to download almost a full gigabyte of data per second on a mobile connection really is something special.</p> <p>ChangYeong Kim, Head of DMC R&D Center at Samsung Electronics, commented on the developments:</p>

<p>We will continue to build upon these milestones and develop advanced technologies that contribute to the 5G standard. In addition to leveraging our own global R&D capabilities, we will also continue to cooperate with other industry leaders and research centers across the world. Whether you are talking about mobile devices, the cloud, or the Internet of Things, the demand for 5G telecommunications standard and its supporting technologies will continue to grow.</p>
