Nobody on this project has read TR 38.760-1. Everything in the baseline table above is a vendor account of a RAN1 agreement. Never launder it into "3GPP has agreed".
The reported layer-1 baseline
Vendor accounts of RAN1 agreements, not TR text. Downlink CP-OFDM, unchanged from NR. Uplink CP-OFDM and DFT-s-OFDM, unchanged. Uniform QAM as the modulation basis. LDPC for data — "5G channel codes will be largely reused" with some enhancements; Polar for control. Frame structure reuses NR's slot-based framework and scalable numerology.
What is genuinely new
System bandwidth spanning a minimum of 3 MHz in some spectrum up to 400 MHz at the top. Around 7 GHz: up to 400 MHz network-side, 400 MHz downlink / 200 MHz uplink device-side. Uplink DFT-s-OFDM with up to two layers — 5G is single-layer.
When the decisions were taken
Juan Montojo (Qualcomm) dates the baseline decisions to RAN1 in August and October 2025 — RAN1#122 Bengaluru and RAN1#122-bis Prague. The June 2026 Singapore plenary consolidated what the working group had already settled. "Agreed at the plenary" is the wrong shape.
One structural departure
The slot stays the logical timing unit while physical channels may extend across slot boundaries.
Modulation, still open
1024QAM uplink for fixed wireless access is agreed. 4096QAM and constellation shaping are without consensus.
