5G network data: how fiction becomes reality

Yes, it's almost an explosion of the brain, but after 3 years at the Winter Olympics in Pyeongchang Korean, we can see the effect of 5G network and correlate their predictions with reality.

Organizers promise to speed up to 20 Gbit / s. And this is only the beginning. The next step will be the Olympic Games in 2020 in Tokyo, and then to appear and the first commercial network 5G.Predpolagaetsya, that the capacity of the network will allow to serve more than one million units on an area of ​​1 sq km with an average speed of more than 100 Mbit / s.

For comparison, the peak speed LTE network - 150 Mbit / s, ie 136 times lower than the minimum rate declared for the 5G-network

One of the main implications of 5G networks will be the appearance of the "Internet of Things". It is possible that a few days ago announced the restructuring of the company Google is just aimed at preparing the transition of the search giant in a new quality - distributed millions Alphabet devices.

The emergence of 5G networks will accelerate the transition to the IoT - «Internet of things." How to change the world at such speeds, it is now hard to imagine. Self-governing cars become commonplace. Imagine sensors that understand that you wake up after 5 minutes and the coffee maker will give the command to make coffee, and more. The possibilities are endless.

In the world of 5G we meet not only new services, but also the evolution of the existing ones. Continue the development of video transmission technology. We now look at the video, but the quality will increase, decrease shipping costs. As the introduction of technological improvements and growth permits we move to 3D. Next Goes to the holographic broadcasting video to augmented reality. This will require gigabit speeds.

We will see an increase in the number of devices connected to the Internet, is 10-100 times. To the network will connect anything from means of transport to home appliances and clothing, and the number of simultaneous connections can reach 100 billion. In this connection, and users of bandwidth consumption will increase at least a thousand times.

Among the other striking features of 5G networks called tactile internet. Taking into account the development of wearable electronics, it will allow effectively emulate a physical interaction with the web resources through the augmented reality. It is assumed that in the distant future it will become the main method of interaction.

Another interesting feature is the technology 5G world "service intelligence» (Service Intelligence, SI).

SI technology, based on the processing of large amounts of data will be developed in such a way that not only the individual user's knowledge, but also its general preferences, the public opinion of social networking (SNS), surrounding the user information from the Internet and so on will comprehensively analyzed in real time in the format that is configured in accordance with the specific needs of the user and circumstances.

But all that is mentioned above, until really fantastic. Reality looks different. In mid-July in Geneva passed a final meeting of the Global Standards Initiative IoT, which is held the International Telecommunication Union (ITU). The next step - the standardization of 5G networks. This is the main issue, which is currently holding back the development of 5G networks, and the same Koreans are at your own risk.

The International Telecommunication Union has recently published roadmap for the development of mobile 5G and determined its name - «IMT-2020". The task for the near future - the development of detailed requirements to the technical parameters for the 5G-radio systems and the definition of "candidate radio interface technologies that will be included in the family of IMT-2020".

What kind of technology is one of those that are being developed now, will be announced as the new stable standard - is unknown. But it is clear that in this speculate some developers, calling 5G is his development. Indeed, as the basic requirements for the new technology, experts believe the support speeds of more than 1 Gbit / s. That is, if someone manage to create technology that supports a data rate for mobile devices, this technology may be recognized 5G standard. But this is not the only criterion. If by this technology your hair will fall out during the conversation, then, in spite of the speed, it is not standardized.

Like any new technology, 5G network will require significant expenditures. The account goes on hundreds of billions of dollars, and this is no joke. Apparently, the introduction of 5G will come only in the most sought-after locations.

And what in Russia? In Russia still can not hold a frequency conversion by 4G.

Timing of construction of 5G networks in Russia depend on what kind of innovations will be introduced in the standards, and how the tempo will increase traffic in Russian networks, as the main change will be the increase in throughput ability. Another factor affecting the life, are the frequencies that will be needed for network deployments. As we recall, the frequency conversion for 4G in Russia is still ongoing.

Well what can I say? And it would be great to surprise the world 5G network to the FIFA World Cup 2018.

@MedvedevRussia, you do not give us a comment?
