What is 5G ?
It is a mobile broadband system that will provide higher performance than is available today’s most advanced 4G networks. These performance improvements will be measurable in terms of speed, latency, reliability, scale and openness. The 5G system will achieve this higher performance by integrating many new devices over multiple wireless technologies with new management and orchestration systems. A 5G system will include existing and new technologies such as: LTE, new radio technology, highly variable end devices especially for M2M, virtualized software and management and orchestration systems. There will be a single global 5G standard to ensure global coverage. It will be deployed in commercial service by 2020, but components may be ready earlier. The main focus is now on research where evolution of existing technologies is on-going in parallel with innovation of new technologies. A lot of research is done in cooperation with universities and pa...
