RedCap/NR-Light

Reduced capability (“RedCap” or “NR-Light”) devices are built to efficiently support lower complexity IoT devices. It also reduces the number of receive antennas required at the device for regular 5G NR from four in most of the new sub-7 bands (i.e., n77/n78/n79, n41, etc.) to one or two in NR-Light. This project also enables further energy savings and coexistence with other 5G NR devices. These RedCap antennas are used for low dara rate devices, where the speed of traditional 5G is not required.
