In July 2018, Qualcomm Technologies unveiled the world's first fully integrated fifth-generation (5G), New Radio (NR), millimeter wave (mm-wave), and sub-6-GHz radio-frequency (RF) modules for smartphones and other mobile devices. The Qualcomm QTM052 mmwave antenna module family and the Qualcomm QPM56xx sub-6-GHz RF module family pair with the Qualcomm Snapdragon X50 5G modem to deliver modem-to-antenna capabilities across several spectrum bands in a very compact footprint suited for integration in mobile devices.
