The next generation telecom networks (5G) will hit the market by
2020. Beyond just speed improvements, 5G is expected to unleash a massive IoT
ecosystem where networks can serve communication needs for billions of
connected devices, with the right trade-offs between speed, latency and cost.
So let us know in detail what is 5g and how will it affect us in future?
What is 5G?
5g
technology is being considered as the fifth generation of mobile internet,
whose speed is higher than today's internet speed, which will quickly and
easily upload and download large data. Its reach will be much better and better
than the current mobile internet. This technique will be an example of the
better use of radio spectrum, and this will connect many devices simultaneously
to the Internet.
In fact, most of the videos in today's
time are watched on mobile. The quality will increase with this technology, the
high speed internet will make the city smart, and there will be a lot of things
that we cannot even imagine at all.

Fifth generation of mobile networks will not only increase the network speed but, also will decrease latency and cost. |
Imagine taking a look at the swarm of drones in the relief and rescue work, or
taking a look at the fire or keeping track of the traffic, which are united
with the stars. As well as in constant contact with the control center located
on the ground. With the introduction of 5g technology it is estimated that the
automated cars will also be able to communicate better to each other with the
help of IOT(Internet of Things) and will be able to share data linked to
traffic and map. The medical facility will be even better. There will be more
friends who will change our world, many new techniques will be used.
But all the protocols of 5g are not
yet decided . It will work on High Frequency Band from 3.5 GHz to 26 GHz or
more. 'Wave length' in this 'Frequency Band' is small. But the problem is that
if the small Wavelength can easily be stopped, then in order to
disseminate these milli waves, you have to install low-end telephone towers.
For those who will be closer to each other, there will be many transmitters,
which will increase the cost and telecom companies will start this service in
India by thinking of investment and profit.

In order to disseminate these milli waves,low-end telephone towers have to installed, which will be very close to each other. |
5g will be very different from the 4G technology. This will work on new radio
technology. It is not yet decided whether or not it will work in its original speed
at the beginning. The reason being all this depends on the investment and
infrastructure of telecom companies. At present, the maximum speed of 45 Gbps
is possible on 5g.
Qualcomm, the most famous and reliable chip manufacturer, estimates that 5G
will be able to achieve high speeds of 10 to 20 times of 4g.
You can
imagine downloading a high-definition movie in a minute or two. In most
countries 5g (5g technology) service will be implemented till 2020. However, a
Qatar company says that he has started this service i.e. 5G service in his own
country. South Korea will start this service till next year. China is also
planning to start 5G service by 2019.
What will 5G networks mean for me?
- Faster download and upload speeds
- Smoother streaming of online content
- Higher-quality voice and video calls
- More reliable mobile connections
- Greater number of connected IoT devices
- An expansion of advanced technologies - including self-driving cars and smart cities

5G technology in India
It may take a little late in India's
5G arrival because Indian companies may not be able to make huge investments
for this new technology right now. It will also be seen whether the customer
will be ready to pay more for this service i.e. 5g. At present, 4G data in the
Indian market is getting to customers at very cheap rates. In such a situation,
it will be worth seeing whether or not they will spend more on 5G.
Now the question arises, will you have to change the phone? So the answer is
probably Yes because we had to change the phone when the 4G came, Is it
possible that new phones go without SIM? Many companies are working on new
technologies, so now we can just wait for the arrival of 5G.
