> Phase 2 formally introduces millimeter wave signaling - this is what does primarily propagates through line of sight (LOS) channels. Clever beam forming and beamsteering can alleviate this to an extent but these cells are intended for dense urban environments or interiors of large buildings. Thanks for all the info. Why don't we just skip phase 2 and continue using wifi?

That’s an open technology. How do carriers sell that?
