Abstract

This paper presents a study of 5G efficientcy using field tests, covering both stationary and mobility tests, to investigate the performance of 5G networks that are deployed nationwide in Thailand. In this study the longest and busiest route of the BTS Skytrain in the heart of Bangkok was selected. Then, the data were collected using the Speedtest application and a 5G smartphone with 2 SIM cards provided by two major mobile service providers. After the analysis, it has been found that the download speeds from the stationary test was 297.5 Mbps and the upload speed was 71.2 Mbps, while the download and upload speeds from the mobility tests were 273.0 Mbps and 48.8 Mbps respectively. However, after using t-test technique for analysis, it has been found that the upload speed from the mobility tests is significantly lower than the speed from the stationary tests (p-value < 0.001). This means that mobility impacts 5G speeds. In conclusion, the overall download speed in Bangkok was 289.6 Mbps and the overall upload speed was 64.0 Mbps. The result from this study can be the new baseline for 5G deployment in other areas of Thailand.

5G网络性能:曼谷素坤逸线- BTS轻轨的静止和移动测试研究

本文介绍了一项通过现场测试(包括固定和移动测试)对5G效率进行的研究，以调查在泰国全国部署的5G网络的性能。在这项研究中，BTS轻轨在曼谷市中心最长和最繁忙的路线被选中。然后，使用Speedtest应用程序和由两家主要移动服务提供商提供的带有2张SIM卡的5G智能手机收集数据。经过分析发现，静止测试的下载速度为297.5 Mbps，上传速度为71.2 Mbps，而移动测试的下载和上传速度分别为273.0 Mbps和48.8 Mbps。然而，在使用t检验技术进行分析后，发现流动性测试的上传速度明显低于平稳测试的速度(p值< 0.001)。这意味着移动性会影响5G的速度。综上所述，曼谷的整体下载速度为289.6 Mbps，整体上传速度为64.0 Mbps。这项研究的结果可以成为泰国其他地区5G部署的新基线。
