5G is already a reality in some Brazilian cities and, even though the estimate for full coverage of all areas in the country (including rural ones) is around 07 years, it is undeniable that the technology will be responsible for a radical change.

After all, 5G connectivity is a key that opens multiple paths, such as: making education more accessible with audiobooks; offering more opportunity and inclusion for everyone; contributing to preservation in sustainable practices through sensors (which help control and reduce carbon emissions) and even impacting the health sector, offering more precise data about the body to assist professionals in preventing diseases or accidents.

In the economic scenario, expectations are also optimistic. According to experts, in Brazil, the arrival of 5G could increase productivity by 1% per year until 2035 (the equivalent of 13.2 trillion dollars).

The 5G Revolution

In short, the social transformation brought about by the fifth generation of the internet will be similar to that caused by the arrival of companies like Uber and Airbnb. In other words, connectivity will be greater and the prices paid for services will be lower. According to data released by Algar Telecom, by 2025 the world will have 25 billion IoT connections, which corresponds to 50% of the data generated.

This is because, unlike 2G, 3G, and 4G, 5G focuses on coverage and connectivity for a range of devices, meaning it can be applied in different areas to enable:

• Online games;

• Autonomous vehicles;

• Drones and remote-controlled robots;

• New payment methods;

• Wearable technologies and much more.

5G allows us to imagine a future where residents contact their smart homes in such a way that, while they are asleep, the systems themselves interact with them and light up the environment according to their body, so they can wake up in a guided manner, through sensors installed in the bed or even in their sleepwear.

5G integrated into daily routines will allow people to enjoy much more convenience at work, during physical activities, in social interactions, in health care, and much more.

Check out below some of the many innovations promised by the fifth generation of mobile internet.

Speed

One of the biggest differentiators of 5G is that it can be up to 100 times faster than 4G (which, in good conditions, reaches 100MBps).

In practice, this fast connection allows more data to be gathered from an operation with smaller waves, ensuring more effective downloads and uploads and optimizing the experience for users who use streaming platforms to watch series and movies.

Real-Time Transmission

Due to the high speed offered, live broadcasts are much less likely to freeze or fail. In addition, the familiar delay (very common in video calls) will also no longer be a problem, as 5G is expected to reach speeds between 5 and 20 milliseconds in latency.

Autonomous Vehicles

Self-driving cars, which operate without the need for a driver, are already a reality. However, 5G technology promises to make them even more reliable. After all, thanks to fifth-generation internet connectivity, vehicles will be able to communicate and share all the procedures needed for a smooth ride, depending on weather and general road conditions.

Cloud Data

Cloud computing, also known as Cloud Computing, is another service present in the personal and corporate everyday life of many people that will benefit from the increased speed and data transmission capacity generated by 5G.

All processes carried out in the cloud can become faster, from collaborative tools to application development.

Furthermore, it will also be possible to rely on wearable technologies, such as connected wristbands and watches, to perform more complex tasks.

360 Connection

Last but not least, 5G will allow multiple devices to connect simultaneously. In other words, at home, it will be possible to connect electronic devices such as the TV, refrigerator, and smart bulbs.

In addition to this, services like ride-hailing apps and Distance Learning institutions will also be able to offer new features, thanks to the expansion of the Internet of Things, which will be established by 5G.

And you? Did you already know about all the superpowers of 5G? Who else is looking forward to the implementation of this technology?
