As technology develops, data becomes more and more important. In the past, real-time data has been limited by the speed and connection capacity offered by 4G. However, the emergence of 5G, the next generation of cellular network technology, will have a significant impact on real-time data.
Experts expect 5G to increase network connection speeds and allow more devices to continuously collect, send and receive data. 5G will make real-time data collection feasible, such as real-time collection of data from IoT devices and sensors.
5G is the next generation of cellular network technology that began rolling out across the country last year. However, many obstacles, including a lack of 4G-compatible modems and the necessary technology and infrastructure, hinder widespread deployment of 5G. This year, things may be different. Major operators plan to deploy 5G in most parts of the country, while using new technologies to fill some weak links.
This technology will provide significant upgrades over 4G – higher speeds, lower latency, support for high connection density, less interference and greater network efficiency. 5G will be the fastest data network yet, with speeds approximately 100 times that of 4G.
With this comes a proliferation of data-driven devices, such as self-driving cars. Experts have designed the network around some new technologies that will make these devices’ connections stronger. For example, 5G is centered on multi-access edge computing (MEC) to implement cloud computing at the edge of the 5G network. This shift brings real-time, low-latency network access to the network edge where large numbers of end devices exist.
Other new technologies expected to be deployed alongside 5G, such as massive MIMO and edge networks, will also make it more practical to connect large numbers of devices without compromising the strength or consistency of their connections. This shift means better connectivity for all devices on the network, including real-time data speeds, low latency and increased bandwidth.
The upgrade will make real-time data applications more practical, especially those that rely on dense sensor clusters that may have been hampered in the past by the limited capacity of 4G networks, which struggled to provide connectivity to many nearby devices.
5G will promote further growth in IoT applications and rely more heavily on real-time data. 5G and the expected growth in real-time data collection will likely encourage the development and upgrade of real-time data solutions. Companies that provide real-time analytics, real-time operating systems, big data technologies, and network infrastructure are likely to benefit from the growth of the real-time data market. They will also need to upgrade their products to support the massive amounts of data that 5G networks will be able to handle.
5G will make it possible to further expand current real-time data collection strategies, adding more devices without the need for wired connections or concerns about interference. The high speed, high connection capacity and low latency provided by this technology will make the large-scale application of real-time data more practical.
