5G :-
In telecommunications, 5G is the fifth generation technology
standard for broadband cellular networks, which cellular phone companies began
deploying worldwide in 2019.
5G wireless
technology is meant to deliver higher multi-gbps peak data speeds, ultra-low
latency, more reliable, increase availability, massive network capacity, and a
more uniform user experience to more users.
No one company or person owns 5G, but there are
several companies within the mobile ecosystem that are contributing to
bringing 5G to life. Qualcomm has played a major role in inventing the
many foundational technologies that drive the industry forward and make
up 5G, the next wireless standard.
The main advantages of
the 5G are a greater
speed in the transmissions, a lower latency and therefore greater capacity of
remote execution, a greater number of connected devices and the possibility of
implementing virtual networks (network slicing), providing more adjusted
connectivity to concrete needs.
5G is designed to do a variety of things that can
transform our lives, including giving us faster download speeds, low latency,
and more capacity and connectivity for billions of devices—especially in the
areas of virtual reality (VR), the IoT, and artificial intelligence (AI).
The rollout of 5G will
provide benefits in three major areas, also known as the
“5G triangle”:
·
uRLLC: Ultra
Reliable Low Latency Communication use
cases.
·
mMTC: Massive
Machine Type Communication (IoT) use
cases.
·
eMBB: Enhanced
Mobile Broadband – high speed use
cases.
Reasons 5G is important
5G is not only important because it has the potential to support
millions of devices at ultrafast speeds, but also because it has the potential
to transform the lives of people around the world. Improvements in 5G technology can help make life better.
IoT can benefit
from 5G networks in many areas like:
·
3.1 Smart Home.
Smart home appliances and products are catching up the market today.
·
3.2 Logistics and
shipping.
·
3.3 Smart cities.
·
3.4 Industrial IoT.
·
3.5 Smart farming.
·
3.6 Fleet
management.
·
3.7 Healthcare and
mission critical applications.
·
3.8 Autonomous
Driving.
Even though some phone case makers brand their cases as 5G compatible, there are no standards in place.
The following list illustrates the five 5G use
cases that received the most interest.
·
Video monitoring
and detection.
·
Connected machinery
and equipment.
·
Fixed Wireless
Access.
·
Connected vehicles.
·
Immersive
experiences.
“The new 5G standard is much faster and more responsive, and has
much greater capacity, which will be a real breakthrough for the massive Internet of Things (IoT), and leveraging machine
learning, artificial intelligence and to automate network management and
security,” he says.

Key Takeaways
·
South Korea, China,
and the United States are the countries that lead the world in
building and deploying 5G technology.
·
Telecommunications
operators around the world—including AT&T Inc., KT Corp, and China
Mobile—have been racing to build the fifth-generation (5G) of wireless
technology.
The main advantages of the 5G are a greater speed in the transmissions, a lower latency and therefore greater capacity of remote execution, a greater number of connected devices and the possibility of implementing virtual networks (network slicing), providing more adjusted connectivity to concrete needs.
Disadvantages
of 5G
·
Obstructions can
impact connectivity. The range of 5G connectivity is not great
as the frequency waves are only able to travel a short distance.
·
Initial costs for
rollout are high.
·
Limitations of
rural access.
·
Battery drains on
devices.
·
Upload speeds don't
match download speeds.
·
Detracting from the
aesthetics.
