Today we reach half a second (which seems little) for our mobile users. The other advantage of the shorter wavelengths of mm-Wave Technology is that antennas used to transmit and receive signals can be significantly reduced. This means that phones using mm-Wave Technology could benefit from multiple antennas for different millimeter wavebands in a single device: thus, the available network would be more efficient, and the internet connection much faster when multiple users would be connected. But tomorrow, some technologies will require a faster response time. For example, half a second of latency for the millions of connected cars that will circulate is far too long. To avoid any accident, it would take a latency of less than one millisecond.
Today, the data transmission delay in 4G + approaches 10 milliseconds. In 5G technology, this could be reduced to less than a millisecond. When it comes to a vehicle to avoid a road accident or a robot to carry out surgery remotely, these 9 milliseconds will make all the difference. Connectivity everywhere, all the time, thanks to increased network coverage in commercial and tourist areas or public places, and to a density of connection increased: more than one million devices per square kilometer can be connected at the same time.
since the 5G should preserve the batteries of our devices. In theory, our smartphones, whose lithium-ion batteries are beginning to reach their limits, should now be able to hold up to 3 days without charge, and some small connected objects would be able to stay in working order over ... 15 years. Why do we change a generation? After all, if you compare operator coverage charts, 4G technology is not yet a generality, and probably never will be anyway. But 5G, on paper, goes beyond simply replacing our current mobile network. In fact, it could well completely blur the distinction between fixed and nomadic internet.
So of course, we must qualify: if we immerse ourselves in the marketing discourse of operators at the time of the arrival of the 4G, it was already the promise that we were made. Manufacturers around the world are starting their first experiences with fifth-generation technology. The standard is not yet defined, so searches are important. However, everyone agrees that 5G technology should be based on millimeter waves. These waves are currently used by the army, but they are not exploited in another setting. The challenge will be to offer a 5G that offers very fast speeds but not necessarily in terms of raw speed. It's actually the latency that needs to be reduced. A reduced latency, which happens to be an essential improvement to the advent of the autonomous car or robotics in the field of health.
