CORONA DUE TO 5G ? TRUTH OR MYTH?

 Everything you need to know about 5G

 5G technology explained—how 5G works, why 5G is important and how it’s changing the way the world connects and communicates .

5G is the 5th generation mobile network. It is a new global wireless standard after 1G, 2G, 3G, and 4G networks. 5G enables a new kind of network that is designed to connect virtually everyone and everything together including machines, objects, and devices.

5G wireless technology is meant to deliver higher multi-Gbps peak data speeds, ultra low latency, more reliability, massive network capacity, increased availability, and a more uniform user experience to more users. Higher performance and improved efficiency empower new user experiences and connects new industries.

IMPACT OF 5G ON GLOBAL ECONOMY

5G is driving global growth.

• $13.1 Trillion dollars of global economic output

• $22.8 Million new jobs created

• $265B global 5G CAPEX and R&D annually over the next 15 years

Through a landmark 5G Economy study, we found that 5G’s full economic effect will likely be realized across the globe by 2035—supporting a wide range of industries and potentially enabling up to $13.1 trillion worth of goods and services.

The study also revealed that the 5G value chain (including OEMs, operators, content creators, app developers, and consumers) could alone support up to 22.8 million jobs, or more than one job for every person in Beijing, China. And there are many emerging and new applications that will still be defined in the future. Only time will tell what the full “5G effect” on the economy is going to be.

This impact is much greater than previous network generations. The development requirements of the new 5G network are also expanding beyond the traditional mobile networking players to industries such as the automotive industry.

HOW FAST IS 5G? 

5G is about more than just how fast it is. In addition to higher peak data rates, 5G is designed to provide much more network capacity by expanding into new spectrum, such as mmWave.

5G can also deliver much lower latency for a more immediate response and can provide an overall more uniform user experience so that the data rates stay consistently high—even when users are moving around. And the new 5G NR mobile network is backed up by a Gigabit LTE coverage foundation, which can provide ubiquitous Gigabit-class connectivity.

In simple terms , "5G IS 500% FASTER THAN 4G"

Is 5G available now?

Yes, 5G is already here today, and global operators started launching new 5G networks in early 2019. Also, all major phone manufacturers are commercializing 5G phones. And soon, even more people may be able to access 5G.

5G has been deployed in 60+ countries and counting. We are seeing much faster rollout and adoption compared with 4G. Consumers are very excited about the high speeds and low latencies. But 5G goes beyond these benefits by also providing the capability for mission-critical services, enhanced mobile broadband and massive IoT. While it is hard to predict when everyone will have access to 5G, we are seeing great momentum of 5G launches in its first year and we expect more countries to launch their 5G networks in 2020 and beyond.

Latency

In 5G, the "air latency"[28] in equipment shipping in 2019 is 8–12 milliseconds.[29] The latency to the server must be added to the "air latency" for most comparisons. Verizon reports the latency on its 5G early deployment is 30 ms:[30] Edge Servers close to the towers can reduce latency to 10–20 ms; 1–4 ms will be extremely rare for years outside the lab. The 5G latency KPIs (key performance indicators) are standardized by 3GPP in TR 28554

Error Rate

5G uses an adaptive signal coding system to keep the bit error rate low. If the error rate is too high the transmitter will switch to a less error prone coding mechanism. This sacrifices bandwidth to ensure a low error rate.

Range

The range of 5G depends on many factors. A key factor is the frequency being used. mmWave signals tend to have a range of only a couple of hundred meters whilst low band signals can, in the right circumstances, have a theoretical range of a couple of hundred kilometers.
