5G- The New Era

5G

WHAT IS IT?


Every ten years or so, something big happens in mobile. Once a decade, a new generation of mobile network technology comes along. Back at the start of 2000, with 3G just about to launch, who could have predicted how the mobile world would look in 2010? 5G networks are the next generation of mobile internet connectivity, offering faster speeds and more reliable connections on smartphones and other devices than ever before. Average download speeds of around 1GBps expected to soon be the norm.

THE CHANGE


 Whatever we do now with our smartphones we'll be able to do faster and better. Think of smart glasses featuring augmented reality, mobile virtual reality, much higher quality video, the internet of things making cities smarter. The fastest current 4G mobile networks offer about 45Mbps. 5G could achieve browsing and download speeds about 10 to 20 times faster in real-world. 5G connectivity was demoed in a situation where a surgery teaching was being performed in virtual reality along with haptic feedback. While the technology can help industries like healthcare, the technology paves way for real-time transfer of high-resolution data, like Virtual Reality and Augmented Reality. As robots are becoming smarter with the use of cutting-edge technologies like Machine Learning and Artificial Intelligence, 5G could play a pivotal role in their future evolution. An autonomous robot using 5G data from the cloud could balance itself when connection speeds are at the max. While 4G operates in the 900MHz band, 5G will operate in higher frequencies going all the way up to 28GHz. 5G networks are expected to launch across the world by 2020, working alongside existing 3G and 4G technology to provide speedier connections that stay online no matter where you are.

5G AND INDIA


 Qualcomm said that India is going to be a “fast follower” of the fifth-generation (5G) technology, even as the country’s pan-Indian 4G LTE networks continue to see exponential data consumption due to falling data rates and rapid uptake of smartphones and 4G feature phones. When you can prove that the demand for data is there, it naturally drives to how do you manage it from a business perspective. If you have a big demand for data, you clearly need to drive the cost down so that you can compete. Basically, you need a bigger pipe, and that naturally leads to the implementation of 5G. 5G will also help accelerate the Indian government’s projects such as Digital India and Smart City.

We’re on the verge of a new age of interconnectedness, where the daily lives of people across the planet will be more closely intertwined than ever. Advances in technology will usher in the age of 5G telecommunications. And, if past is prologue, this technological evolution will lead to dramatic societal changes.

     “With the single exception of Homer, there is no eminent writer, not even Sir Walter Scott, whom I can despise so entirely as I despise Shakespeare when I measure my mind against his."-  George Bernard Shaw              Reading or listening to Shakespeare can be like learning a foreign language. And then some people have trouble finding the "real" or "true" emotion or feeling in the words. It takes time, and everyone is in such a hurry. Well, not everyone. People liked the movie "Shakespeare in Love", but then the language was changed when the "real" characters were talking with each other while not reciting their lines. The main issue may be intellectual accessibility. They are nauseatingly boring to read. And all I learned was that Early Modern English hurt my brain. The most bizarre and probably the coolest of all was Muammar al-Gaddafi on Willy, who was,  Sheikh  Zubayr bin William. Gaddafi came up with this champion in

The Mentalist

The Mentalist is a very interesting show about a man named Patrick Jean, a former psychic who has the ability to "read" peoples minds . He uses these same skills to work with the FBI, and helps them catch criminals. In return he also wants their aid in catching the person who killed his wife and daughter. The peculiar thing about this show is the wa y he use s h is ability to think in absurd ways helps him solve crimes. Putting himself in the shoes of the criminal and predicting the criminal's next move, as well as using a "mind palace" to store all important facts and  evidence of the case, are just a few of the things that he does. Patrick's ability to think in the most absurd fashion and come up with the most crazy reasons as to how a person can be caught or proven guilty is interesting. This is also probably the reason why the show has a very repetitive story line. In which the sequence of events happen i

Nasty Battles #9 - Last benchers Vs first benchers

-
Image
The classification - There are 2 kinds of students in a class- the outstanding ones and the others who are always standing out of the class. The former being the face of the class and the latter being the backbone. Idiosyncrasies - If a doubt is being asked in the class, the nerds frantically scan the textbooks for the answer while the other ‘chilled out’ kind is like “Just 5 minutes left for the lecture to climax ;)". The first benchers wish to get a degree to get a job (in hope of a ‘bright’ future) while the last benchers consider Facebook as their present and also their future (Who cares if it’s bright or not!?). The former crowd will always be on time, never call in a sick and would LOVE to work overtime (and basically salsa to the teachers’ rhythm). Last benchers, on the other hand, are those who OBVIOUSLY want to attend the class; but for the fun in their own sweet last bench-ly world (it does amaze me that how they manage to listen to the teachers). They’ve
