Abstract:

A driving need for more bandwidth, speed and latency calls for innovation in the telecommunications sector – and newer technologies are being developed to answer that summoning. In this article, a brief highlight regarding 5G technologies is addressed in the form of shedding light onto many of the already existing applications, and how 5G can improve over 4G. Additionally, as with all new technologies, some of the risks are looked at – mainly concerning public health and cybersecurity.
