They will be using the existing towers for now. In cities they will use DAS (distributed antenna systems) to help with congestion. They actually already use them on the 4G network. A DAS system has a main hub with small antennas every few blocks. They are mostly mounted on telephone poles. Take a look when you are around a big city and you will see them.
Okay thanks so not as many antenna needed as some think then. Thank you.

It actually should use less towers as the frequency travels farther and has better in building penetration. The DAS systems are usually used because of building restrictions, sport/concert venues that don't need 365 day coverage and sometimes for in building solutions.
That is very different from what I have heard. Sounds much better.
