Everything You Need to Know About 5G

Q: What is 5G?

A: 5G is the 5th generation mobile network. It will take a much larger role than previous generations.
5G will elevate the mobile network to not only interconnect people, but also interconnect and control machines, objects, and devices. It will deliver new levels of performance and efficiency that will empower new user experiences and connect new industries. 5G will deliver multi-Gbps peak rates, ultra-low latency, massive capacity, and more uniform user experience.

Q: What are the other generations of mobile networks?

A: The other mobile network generations are 1G, 2G, 3G, and 4G.

• 1G delivered analog voice.
• 2G introduced digital voice (e.g., CDMA). 
• 3G brought mobile data (e.g., CDMA2000). 
• 4G LTE ushered in the era of mobile Internet.

Q. What are the benefits of 5G?

A: 5G is a new kind of network: a platform for innovations that will not only enhances today’s mobile broadband services, but will also expand mobile networks to support a vast diversity of devices and services and connect new industries with improved performance, efficiency, and cost. 5G will redefine a broad range of industries with connected services from retail to education, transportation to entertainment, and everything in between. We see 5G as technology as transformative as the automobile and electricity.

Q: What services and use cases do you see for 5G?

A: In general, 5G use cases can be broadly categorized into three main types of connected services:

• Enhanced Mobile Broadband: 5G will not only make our smartphones better, but it will also usher in new immersive experiences, such as VR and AR, with faster, more uniform data rates, lower latency, and cost-per-bit.
• Mission-Critical communications: 5G will enable new services that can transform industries with ultra-reliable/available, low latency links—such as remote control of critical infrastructure, vehicles, and medical procedures.
• Massive Internet of Things: 5G will seamlessly connect a massive number of embedded sensors in virtually everything through the ability to scale down in data rates, power and mobility to provide extremely lean/low-cost solutions.
• A defining capability of 5G is also the design for forward compatibility—the ability to flexibly support future services that are unknown today.
