Are you ready for 5G connection
Q: What is "5G"?
A: What we call 3G or 4G (short for third generation or fourth generation) is a communication technology. Simply put, this technology decides how your phones or other devices connect to the internet. From a consumer point of view, 4G connections are technically capable of speeds higher than 3G. "5G" is the working title for a new kind communication technology - an upgrade from 4G, if you will -- that is still under development. The academic and technical community working on it currently refers to it as "IMT-2020" in their discussions and documents. IMT is short for International Mobile Telecommunications.
What 5G eventually will be remains tentative. US-based researcher and Harvard Law School professor Susan Crawford wrote about the same last month in a blog post titled "The Next Generation of Wireless — "5G" — Is All Hype". "For the moment '5G' refers to a handful of different kinds of technologies that are predicted, but not guaranteed, to emerge at some point in the next 3 to 7 years," she wrote.
Q: So who decides what "5G" will be?
A: At the centre of all the action in making the specifications for what is being called "5G" are organisations like the telecom associations' group Third Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) and the International Telecommunication Union (ITU).
The 3GPP brings together seven telecom associations from across the world which they call "operating partners". Here, India is represented by the Telecommunications
Standards Development Society, India or the TSDSI. It was up in January 2014. "Indian companies were unable to participate in the discussions for standards before then because one needed a standards development organisation to be able to do so. Now about 14 members of the TSDSI are participating in the 3GPP discussions for 5G," says Abhay Karandikar, vice chairperson of the TSDSI and a professor at IIT Mumbai's department of electrical engineering
