Abstract: As the Release 15 of the fifth generation of mobile system (5G) frozen in June 2018 by 3rd generation partner project (3GPP), the industrialization of 5G system is being accelerated for commercial launch towards 2020. As the next step of the production of 5G system, it is needed to validate if the 5G specifications can meet the minimum performance requirements defined by 3GPP. Based on the latest 5G specifications, a prototype of 5G new radio (NR) base station was designed and developed, and the field trial of enhanced mobile broad band (eMBB) was conducted in the typical urban scenarios. The key performance indicators were validated against the minimum requirements of peak throughput, cell throughput, coverage and latency. The results proved that the 5G prototype can fulfil the minimum requirements of 5G system defined by 3GPP.

Key words: fifth generation, new radio, massive multiple input multiple output, field trial
