arXiv:2111.10779v1 Wei Jiang, Hans Dieter Schotten The fifth-generation (5G) mobile system is now being deployed across the world and the scale of 5G subscribers is growing quickly in many countries. The attention of academia and industry is increasingly shifting towards the sixth generation (6G) and many pioneering works are being kicked off, indicating an important milestone...

Letter to the Editor A full analysis of the many factual errors, dubious claims and non sequiturs in this paper would be a big job. We comment on a few specific errors, and defer the longer discussion needed to address his biophysical theories. Errors include elementary mistakes in electromagnetics. The letter is available from: Foster,...

Recap: Sizing Up the Gains, Pains of 5G mmWave Early 5G hype focused on mmWave because it can deliver gigabit-plus speeds, lower latency, and fantastical use cases, but the economics don’t bear out and are unlikely to until later this decade. https://t.co/rAbW3at4uy— SDxCentral News (@sdxcentral) February 22, 2021 Matt Kapko | EditorFebruary 21, 2021 3:00 PM The...

Publication Date: Wednesday, May 20, 2020 Speculation linking 5G mobile telephony and data networks to a range of health threats, has been rife. Some claims even go to the extent of attributing the current COVID-19 pandemic to the initial rollouts of 5G networks. Unfortunately, a lot of opinions aired do not come with a high degree...

Int. J. Environ. Res. Public Health 2019, 16(18), 3406; https://doi.org/10.3390/ijerph16183406 Abstract The introduction of the fifth generation (5G) of wireless communication will increase the number of high-frequency-powered base stations and other devices. The question is if such higher frequencies (in this review, 6–100 GHz, millimeter waves, MMW) can have a health impact. This review analyzed 94 relevant publications...

Comment by EMFSA: The transition to 5G is no different than the transition from 3G to 4G in as much as the earlier technology will be heavily relied upon as a backup to the new technology. 4G will still be around at least until the late 2020’s as a backup to 5G.
