What impact will 5G have on us?

1. First of all, it is clear that fiber optic transmission is better than 5G!

No matter how fast 5G is or how low its latency is, it is not as fast or low as fiber optics. Therefore, fiber optics will generally be used wherever it can be used. The advantage of 5G is that it has a large transmission bandwidth and low latency when in motion, so the application of 5G will mainly focus on transmitting surrounding videos or various sensor data (sound, magnetic field, meteorological data, etc.) while in motion. The following analyzes the application scenarios one by one.

2. Mature Applications

1. Live broadcast on mobile phone. Live broadcast has higher definition and requires a large-screen high-definition display on the receiving end, so that you can experience shopping and traveling at home. If the viewing end is a mobile phone, it is not very meaningful. The mobile phone has a small screen, and the effects of 4G and 5G are similar.

2. Remote control machinery in high-risk environment industries. When wired access is not suitable, remote control machinery or robots that need to be connected to the Internet, such as driving vehicles operating in high temperature or harmful gas environments.

3. High-definition imaging, lidar and multi-technology inspection drones.

4. Temporary video surveillance.

3. Applications that require other technologies to continue to advance

5. Autonomous driving. The Internet of Vehicles and autonomous driving still need to improve in terms of safety. Currently, there are no commercial cases in free lanes, not because of transmission technology issues.

6. Smart wearable devices. Combined with high-definition camera images and voice and other sensor data, they can intelligently analyze the surrounding environment and give smart suggestions to the wearer. This is the same as unmanned driving. The problem lies mainly in the bottleneck of artificial intelligence technology.

4. Useless Applications

7. Telemedicine. The concept of telemedicine has been proposed since the emergence of the Internet, and it is mentioned at every node of network technology upgrade. However, the main weakness of telemedicine is not in technology, but in the scarcity of high-end doctors. No matter how good the telemedicine equipment is, the big doctors in Beijing will not have time to help Nanning hospitals perform surgery, because Beijing also needs the time of these doctors, and the time of high-end doctors is limited.
