Relatively recently, the world has begun deployment of cellular network standard LTE-Advanced, which, according to the International Telecommunication Union, can rightfully be called the fourth generation (4G). So, LTE-Advanced involves transmission of data at speeds up to 100 Mbit / s mobile subscribers and 1 Gbit / s - stationary.
Today, when not all users have tasted the delights of LTE, the developers of telecommunications solutions looking into the future and already speak about the connection of the fifth generation (5G), implying a multiple increase in data rate (up to 10 Gbit / s) and bandwidth compared to 4G. The term is conditional until 5G - ITU officially it is not yet approved.
In an interview with Mobile World Dr. Paul Jacobs , chairman Qulacomm, described his vision of the standard 5G. He was confident that 5G will not only increasing the speed and reducing delays compound, but move to a new level of reliability and stability of the network. Implementation of the fifth-generation networks is not expected before 2020.
