Re: How fast?These guys are always on another galaxy. I was amazed to see the translating glasses they showcased. I hope they drive the industry into a quicker adoption of higher speed internet with the 5G.
Re: How fast?Ah, yes. I should have thought of that. Still an important issue, though perhaps less so what with technology being developed for powering devices from ambient energy (heat, solar, etc.).
Re: How fast?Lots of vendors and industry groups working towards their idea of a 5G spec, no official spec has been defined though, just the expectation that there will be a spec that operators can use as a 2020+ template at some point.
Re: How fast?IMHO 5G is not about speeds. It's about use cases that are relevant and pertinent to individuals and businesses.
Somehow I had this impression that 5G was already in lab trials. I am surprised that it's still in the specification and standardization stage. Or am I missing something here?
Re: DoCoMo's 2020 Vision for 5GWith some of the technological incorporations expected for the next generation wireless communication of a 5G network, the question, "how fast will it be?" is brought to our attention. Some of these incorporations include the lower band spectrum to extend coverage to rural areas and machine to machine communications to create an opportunity from very low power requirements for the connection-tiny sensors that have long battery life will be used for the connection, from agricultural to the medical settings. However, there is still a lot of uncertainty and a lot of explanation to be done in defining this fifth generation wireless network as made clear by CTO of NTT Docomo Inc and Lauri Oksanen, the vice president of research and technology ant Nokia Solutions and Networks. The incorporations are just assumptions and are yet to be tested; therefore no certain conclusion can be made yet.
