The Evolution of Mobile Networks: From 1G to 5G

 

INTRODUCTION TO 1G,2G,3G,4G AND 5G

The phrase 5G is called the fifth generation. The generation which has given a lot of facilities like mobile phone, internet, artificial intelligence and many others. Before getting directly towards 5G, we should talk about 1G,2G,3G,4G. As you know now days we are using 4G as for our mobile and data connection but the question arrives what are the 1G,2G,3G? 1G technology is the first generation of wireless mobile communication where analog signals were used to transfer data.2G is the second generation of mobile telephone which were used digital signals for the very first time.3G is the third generation of mobile telecommunication, it enables feaster data to transfer and access to mobile internet, multimedia services, and features like video calls.

Now days we are using 4G mobile network but in the future, the era of 4G will be disagreed by society and the era of 5G will begin.

HOW 5G WILL BE SET UP

 To successfully access 5G network many antennas will be used and it will be planted at every plot of the city with 250 meters away from one to another because more than 100,000 people are waiting to use it. By using 5G the communication between people will be increased and our life would be much easier than before. With supporting high speed of internet, its stability will be also amazing. imagine you’re going somewhere from a car at the speed of 100 or more than 100km/h and to connect the antenna with your device would be challenging as reading books without knowing how to read and this challenge is accepted by blue wireless company and they’re working on it. Now take it as you’re going in a bullet train and your device is connected with nearer antenna you will be shocked that its stability will be same as in a stable place and these kind of experiments are experimented World Wide.

WHICH COUNTRIES ARE LEADING IN 5G TECHNOLOGY

 In these all things that I have mentioned China and Japan are in lead. In 2019, in Delhi “India mobile congress, the biggest event of south Asia, this event showed that 5G is not limited to calls and internet. In this tech event Huawei launched smart air bot which can recognize your face by checking as an example that 5G is not limited to calls and internet and this technology will be used in smart vehicles also.

5G ROLE IN MODERN CITIES

 In modern cities 5G technology will be used to update the city through the sensors plugged into towers the data given by sensors will let the system know where is the fault and where to correct and update things in city.

How 5G will improve gaming and smart homes?

5G will change your gaming experience more graphical and realistic. In India mobile congress a reliance Jio named company launched a very realistic VR headset which can make people see each other in real from different cities in just a game. In future, 5G technology will make our housing problem solved and will make our luxurious life more easier like automated window, AC, doors, light etc. will be done by just by a voice command.

HOW 5G IS BETTER THAN 4G

5G cannot just handle many users but can also process more data. Normally 4Gs response is just 30 milliseconds while in 5G the response time is 01 milliseconds like when you’re watching a cricket match the 4G cannot handle all of the traffic because 4G is about 6 GHz frequency, in 5G the network is not interrupted because in 5G there are 30 to 300 GHz frequency. 5G will be helpful to medical instruments and ambulance etc. but 5Gs range is smaller and if you are excited to use 5G you have to know that it is expensive as its technology and this was conveyed by a report of 2020 that to plant 5G in Delhi and Mumbai, it will cost about 8000 to 10,000cr.

How will 5G connect to users?

Actually the network you’re using in which you’re under the radius of the internet tower at 1.5 km and you are served from service center but in 5G more antenna will be needed. STL means Sterlite Technology limited chief marketer officer Manish Singh provided that for 5G to work under 1 to 1.5 km radius at least 20 to 25 antennas will be needed and if there are that many antennas to manage fiber cables will be used, now you would be thinking “what is special about these cables?” these cables are special because without electricity, these cables can store a large amount of data.

Cyber security and 5G risks

5G become a global threat

Chinese tech Huawei is forward in this race of 5G technology, in 2017, Chinese government passed national intelligence law in which national intelligence will help Chinese government when needed so as you know I have told you that Huawei is a Chinese company so if the electronic products made by Huawei are bought from other countries Huawei will share data with Chinese government, so china can miss use this situation, USA, India, Taiwan and other countries which are enemy to china for them this law is a headache. The policy in which china is going how much dangerous is it and about that a british government is researching on it. Experts have insured if other countries do not fight wars a war named cyber war is presented to make your enemy weaker without using guns you can make a country beg in front of you. European countries like USA are afraid that china don’t use Huawei to make them stronger.

will 5G affect our health care?

Actually in 2020 when covid19 was spreading, in many countries 5G technology towers were ignited by people because of a fake news and that news was that covid19 was spread because of 5G technology and this news was published on social media, Jack Stilgoe is an Associate professor in university, college London, who says that from 1990 after mobile technology it has bad side effects on our health and after this news telecom companies were cased many times but court dismissed all the cases about it. The ones who think mobile radiation is not good for our health, they need to know that mobile radiation do not produces heat, it means 5G will not affect human body tissues. Still it is unknown that 5G is bad for our health.

CONCLUSION

5G is the next big thing in technology. It will make the internet much faster and improve things like gaming, smart homes, and healthcare. Cities will also become smarter with 5G. But setting it up is costly and needs many antennas. Some people worry about safety and security, but there is no clear proof that 5G is harmful. Countries like China, Japan, and the USA are working hard to develop it. Even with some challenges, 5G will make life easier and better for everyone.
