The penetration of 5g users of operators is far slower than that of 4G. The popularity of 5g still depends on China Radio and television

All three operators have announced 5 Number of users in the month , leave 2019 year 6 Monthly release 5G License plate , Three major operators 5G User penetration is significantly lower than 4G Time , Lead to 5G The reason for low user penetration is network coverage , All this may change with the arrival of China Radio and television ,5G User penetration or accelerated under the competition of China Radio and television .

Published by the three major operators 5 Monthly data shows , China Mobile 、 China Telecom 、 China Unicom 5G The number of users is 4.9213 Billion 、2.2447 Billion 、1.7970 Billion , Since China Unicom no longer publishes its number of mobile phone users separately, it will not analyze , China Mobile 、 The number of mobile phone users of Chinatelecom is 9.6659 Billion 、3.8115 Billion ,5G The proportion of users is 50.9%、58.9%.

2017 year 12 October is China Mobile Commercial 4G-TD-LTE The third year , At that time, it released data showing the number of mobile phone users 、4G The number of users is 8.872 Billion 、6.495 Billion ,4G The proportion of users reaches 73.2%. It can be seen from the comparison that China Mobile Commercial 4G after ,4G The popularization progress of is far beyond the current 5G.

Aforementioned 5G The actual penetration rate is probably lower , Because the Ministry of industry and information technology disclosed 5G The number of network users is only published by the three major operators 5G About half of the number of package users , This is because the operator announced 5G The number of users in the package is only 5G Users of the package , The Ministry of industry and information technology disclosed 5G The number of network users is 5G Mobile phones and 5G Users of the network , The data of the Ministry of industry and information technology can better reflect consumers' use of 5G The situation of .

Lead to the present 5G The popularization progress is lower than that of the year 4G, There are several main reasons , First, the operator's 5G Network coverage is much lower than 4G, Two is 5G The package is too expensive , The third is 5G Mobile phone price ratio 4G The mobile phone is much higher , But the main reason is probably 5G Network coverage is not ideal .

Built by three major operators 5G Base station for 160 Ten thousand seats , Average each 5G The Internet only has 80 Ten thousand seats 5G The base station , Even if it is completed this year 60 Ten thousand seats 5G The base station , Average each 5G The network has only 110 ten thousand 5G The base station , This is the same as China Mobile 4G The network has 240 Ten thousand seats 4G There are too few base stations .

In addition, the present 5G The Internet is all based on 2.6GHz or 3.5GHz High frequency band construction , and 4G Is based on 1.8GHz-2.1GHz Frequency band construction , People in the industry think 2-3 seat 5G The coverage of the base station is the same as that of one 4G The base station is quite , This leads to the present 5G Network coverage is not ideal , So many 5G The user bought 5G I would rather turn off my mobile phone later 5G function .

However, after China Radio and television entered the mobile communication market , All this will change a lot , The biggest advantage of China Radio and television is that it has 700MHz The golden band , In total, there are 60M spectrum , Than the three major operators 800MHz、900MHz There should be more resources in the frequency band , It is expected that China Radio and television and China Mobile will jointly build 48 Ten thousand seats 700MHz 5G When the base station is completed , It will form a nationwide 5G The Internet .

700MHz 5G Compared with 4G The network has more advantages in terms of coverage , In particular, the urban corner area and high-speed rail scene have obvious advantages , In terms of wireless data speed, the two are almost the same . Refer to China Mobile in that year to cover excellent 2G-EDGE Beat China Unicom and Chinatelecom 3G, It is conceivable that the coverage is better and the wireless data rate is the same as 4G Quite 700MHz 5G It is expected to replace 4G And get the recognition of consumers .

It can be expected that with the launch of China Mobile and China Radio and television 700MHz 5G,5G The popularization process of will accelerate rapidly , Chinatelecom recently launched VoWiFi Technology may also be responding to this threat .

5G The relatively slow development of China has disappointed all parties , In especial 5G Technology represents that China has changed from a follower to a leader in global mobile communication technology ,5G The business process is even more ugly , and 700MHz 5G The commercialization of will change the current situation , This is for 5G It will have a huge impetus .
