LTE stands for Long Term Evolution, which was a stop-gap mid generation marketing term -- 5G is not LTE. 5G is 5G, until they implement LTE as a marketing gimmick which they do not need to do as 5G is nowhere near at its peak yet.
First: It is not "just an encoding technology", so let's dispel with that from the above post.
Second: It operates on a variety of bands (low, mid and high 5G) that includes frequencies as high as 300GHz, though I don't believe any currently employ frequencies that high, instead being around 24-47GHz.
They are RF and not acoustic though, yes. They also consume more energy to power, by a significant margin.
In telecommunications, long-term evolution (LTE) is a standard for wireless broadband communication for mobile devices and data terminals, based on the GSM/EDGE and UMTS/HSPA standards. It improves on those standards' capacity and speed by using a different radio interface and core network improvements.
LTE is the encrypted protocol. 5G are the grouping of signals this protocol uses. The protocol is encrypted using a variety of technologies. This is required to differentiate corrupt data from good, and iso non-time dependent or isotonic data. A conversation can have ms dropped and our brain will fill in the voids. But a .pdf file can arrive in any order and be reassembled without user knowledge.
Frequency range on 5G not only takes significantly more power, but frequencies also interfere with water vapor tracking radar frequencies, which will cause weather tracking difficulties in many nations. The USA being one of them

This site has a good and easily digestible series of information though it is incomplete in regards to common deployment.
