5G mobile network is accelerating and may be commercially available in 2019

As the demand for mobile networks continues to expand, the new generation of 5G mobile network technology has received much attention, and many telecom operators and equipment manufacturers have invested in the 5G field. According to the previously planned global 5G standard development blueprint, it is expected that the 5G technical standards will be completed before 2018 and will be officially commercially deployed in 2020.

5G mobile network is accelerating

However, judging from the current situation, the 5G development speed in some countries and regions is obviously faster than previously expected, and some countries are even expected to start commercial deployment in 2019.

The biggest difference between the new generation of 5G mobile network technology and traditional LTE is that it can not only meet the communication needs between people and between people and machines, but also allow networked devices to communicate and interact through 5G. Therefore, it can be applied to more fields such as medical care, automobiles, retail and manufacturing.

The application of 5G network will be more extensive in the future

However, the 5G service tests that operators in different regions focus on are different. In North America, for example, Verizon has begun testing 5G fixed wireless access (FWA) services, hoping to replace traditional wired network access with 5G's high-speed transmission capabilities. In addition to FWA technology testing, AT&T has also conducted more service tests for Internet of Things (IoT) applications. In Europe, the focus is on 5G application experiments in industry and manufacturing, aiming to help local companies improve work efficiency and production quality.

In response to this, in the first half of this year, many large telecom operators have already launched a targeted spectrum promotion plan for 5G mobile networks, and are expected to complete the pre-commercial testing of 5G networks in 2018, with the goal of gradually completing the formal deployment of 5G from 2019 to 2020. It can be foreseen that the 5G era is accelerating towards people.
