The 3 main Applications of 5G Communication technology are as under,
Enhanced Mobile Broadband - 5G will allow users to reach speeds in the gigabyte per second (gbps) range compared to the megabyte per second (mbps) range today. The current network, as it stands today, is not really capable of being a fixed broadband replacement due to limited spectrum usage for this as the company needs more millimeter wave (high band) spectrum.
Low latency applications ? Technology and applications continue to shift to a need for low latency. When consumers reach the next evolution of the Internet of Things including self-driving cars and virtual reality applications, low latency will become ever important. Self-driving cars and similar applications are still years away, in our opinion, due to the reliance on adequate fiber throughout the country.
IoT - 5G will grow the number of sensors from the millions to the billions.
