5-G is coming to India with the help of Reliance. But why so much fuss about it?
It started with a cost of over thirty rupees per minute. No one bothered about what is called 2-G. A phone with a big antenna. It was painful to keep it in my pocket. The charge lasted a few hours. After that the cost of use gradually decreased. Reduced 16 taka, then 8 taka per minute call charge is over and now this phone is for the masses. And this time it's 5G's turn.
How many of us keep in mind that the first generation mobile phone came in 1989 to talk only? The first 2G phones hit the market in Finland in the mid-80s. Digital. Not only talking, but also sms could be done. Mobile phones in India started with this 2-G.
I remember getting my first mobile phone. Then 7 rupees per minute. Incoming free. So it was customary to cut off by calling the land line. When I went to work outside, I would call the office and leave. Phone calls from the office. And then talk about quick work. There was no way to talk much. Because, at that time Gabda phone was not charged like now. That's the cost, so the battery pressure. It is at this point that I remember people started walking around with another battery in their pockets to avoid the hassle of running out of charge. And then there was the sight of how small the car was. Remember, the first mobile phone lost in the oil of Nokia came in 2000! And right after that flip phone. So what's the excitement and discussion!
The evolution of mobile phones. File image.
The next chapter was ‘Two Point 5-G’ and its improved version ‘Edge’. BlackBerry. The advantage of emailing from the phone. In the meantime, people have started forgetting the first mobile attraction. Ugly mail is going to be done effortlessly from the phone. But even then, mobile phones have not become a way to spend time.
it's time for 3G. Life changed. Information is moving relatively fast. Improved opportunity to view internet on mobile. The whole world, including email, is in the palm of your hand. Opportunity to see the person on the opposite side on the phone. Not only that. Opportunity to use internet from computer or create hotspot by using phone. And now there is a better system for the welfare of 4-G.
In fact, this improvement in mobile phones is continuous, but it is bringing more and more opportunities for communication in the palm of our hand. From just talking, today's mobile life has come in the hands of a lot more power than the primitive computer. But I want more. So this time it's 4-G's turn!
5-G is coming to India with the help of Reliance. But why so much fuss about it? There is no room for discussion of the Five-G economy in this range. We also know who Reliance tied the knot with. In a country like India, the scope of this discussion is beyond the scope of this discussion. Let's just try to understand the features of 5-G as a comparison.
The reason for the excitement with this generation of technology is the incredible speed of information exchange. With today's technology, you can watch TV by pressing the button of the phone, you can run the fridge. Everything else can be done with this technology, and it can be done faster. Not only that, in this technology it is possible to communicate between as many devices in the same region as a fraction of the current technology. And so the industry is much more excited about it.
Let's see what the matter is! Let's start with who in the world has this technology. The technology is in the hands of nine companies around the world. And they are:-
If we look at the rights of technology across the country, we will see that at the moment, the European Union, the United States, China and South Korea have the key to this 5-G. In July 2016, the United States Federal Communications Commission set rules for how the network would operate in that country. And then the 5-G journey to the US began. Other countries are following the same rule. But that is another topic.
Why 5-G?
I think in terms of our daily mobile usage. Suppose it takes you seven minutes to download a movie to FourG. In Five-G, do it in six to seven seconds. At least that's what technologists claim. But just thinking about entertainment is so exciting? Of course not.
From just talking, today's mobile life has come in the hands of a lot more power than the primitive computer. File image.
Now everything from fan to AC can be run on the phone. Even if not at home. But think mobile in your hand. So we have to close something. And immediately. Can't Because of the current technology, it may take a long time for the signal to reach your phone.
Now suppose a factory needs to have constant communication between a few thousand machines. Production from buyer demand, all. But in order to do that, the speed at which information needs to be exchanged and the number of devices that need to be tied together in a single thread cannot be done at that speed in the present technology. Claims to get rid of it in 5-G. Let's keep an eye on the information.
5-G is 100 times faster than Four-G. And that's why, for example, it takes 100 percent less time to download a movie. If data can be downloaded at 100 Mbps on Four-G, it can be downloaded on 10,000-Mbps at 5-G.
There is a talk in the world of information technology. Latency. Simply put: latency is measured by how fast you send an information to its destination. This time in Five-G is less than five milliseconds. In the Four-G, that's about 50 milliseconds. This means that if we suddenly want to stop or run something using a mobile phone, we can do it in 10 times less than 4G with 5-G.
The latency is measured by how fast you send information to the destination. This time in Five-G is less than five milliseconds. File image.
Everyone is so excited about this technology because with Five-G we can do a lot more data, in a lot more devices, in a much shorter time than with Four-G. We've seen for ourselves that we can do a lot more with 2G than we could with 2G. And many companies have come up with services using this technology - even services like banking are literally in our hands today.
But! Yes, there is one. The world's mobile service providers are members of GSMA. A bit like a business meeting. The GSMA claims that by 2025, one third of the world will use the new service. We understand this ‘but’ by keeping an eye on a little U.S. data.
At the moment, Five-G technology has been introduced in 50 cities in the United States. The question is, what is the demand for technology in all these cities? A city-wise survey conducted in February this year shows that: -
As this survey of signal strength shows, there is still a big difference between claims and realities. Maybe that's the primary problem with technology. But just think, what can this technology give us if we overcome this initial problem! How much, we have already witnessed. And, the Five-G is going to be as revolutionary as the Three-G, which is what it claims to be. But what the socioeconomic impact will be is another matter.
