5G network, a fifth-gen wireless cellular network. 5G is entirely different technology when compare to 4G as it is not an upgraded version of it. In hindsight 5G brings forth new possibilities capable of transforming businesses around the globe.
The implementation of 5G brought forth many changes towards various industries due to the multiple merits brought by this new technology but one of its widely known abilities is to provide high-speed transfer of data between different devices with a jaw-dropping of 10X-100X of its predecessor. Although its coming has been delayed due to the recent pandemic, the world has its eyes on it as mobile apps development is one that benefits from this revolution.
The massive impact 5G brings is the exponential increase in user experience with its enhanced features provided at a better speed.
Mobile apps utilizing 5G are able to allow users to have a better quality of access towards IoT, UltraHD videos, AR & VR, and Cloud Computing. The laying foundation for this is due to the major benchmarks that the 5G network has come with:
In this category 5G completely overpowered 4G in speed which is around 100X of it. IN previous times LTE is the fastest mobile technology with a maximum of 200 megabits of data per second. 5G is shown to be able to transfer 3GB of data per second. This speed is predicted to be able to go 20 times the speed of 10 GPBS IN THE future.
Delays are usually caused by high latency this is especially so when the mobile dice and their networks are in a critical junction in real-time. 5G solves this with the latency to one millisecond on average latency when compared to the average latency of 50 milliseconds experienced over 4G networks. This is so due to 5G equipped with Ultra-Reliable Low Latency Communication (URLLC). While so there will be minimal network interference thus allowing the transfer of data from mobile apps better.
5G enables better connectivity of a 100 times amount of device area per unit than a 4G network. This is due to the increased connection density equipped to handle network traffic to allow smooth flowing connection between apps and hardware.
The geolocation-based mobile app will have a definite increase in the precision of information delivery. The speed of transfer and connectivity provided by 5G will ensure precise results in real-time, this will provide better performance in navigations applications.
cloud hosting and cloud-based operations demand a high-speed connection for better transfer of data. This is where 5G come into play as the transmission of massive amounts of data is a mandatory functionality carried out using connectivity, minimum latency, and greater bandwidth capacity THus now 5G network hits all these requirements thus able to chance cloud supports
AR and VR technology has been around and being implemented in mobile apps for some time now, but apps with these functionalities face many limitations due to slow speed and high latency due to 4g but with 5g these would be prevented. Thus AR and VR apps will have a new revolutionary change, especially in the eLearning, smart, entertainment, and media industries.
The media streaming platform is made with the purpose of providing a media-enriched experience thus heavily relying on the quality of display network speed with low latency is needed to make these viable. The arrival of 5G will bring revolution towards the video streaming platform such as twitch, youtube, and so on will be able to provide high-performance streaming 4k videos in applications.
