Simply put, from 3G to 5G is accompanied by faster network speeds and more usage scenarios that follow. It is expected that after the popularization of 5G, it will bring features such as high speed, low latency, and the Internet of Things. Compared with the current network equipment access and application range. specifically:

  1. The simplest difference is the network speed, and the more diverse applications and scope of application that come with faster speed;
  2. 3G is the third-generation mobile communication technology (3rd-generation, 3G), which refers to cellular mobile communication technology that supports high-speed data transmission. 3G service can transmit voice and data information at the same time, and the rate is generally above several hundred kbps. There are currently four standards for 3G: CDMA2000, WCDMA, TD-SCDMA, WiMAX;
  3. 4G is the abbreviation for fourth-generation mobile communication and its technology. Compared with 3G, 4G has a higher bandwidth and can transmit higher-quality videos and images. In fact, due to the high data transmission rate of the LTE system used in 4G, voice data can be directly cut into packets for transmission; in the 4G era, thanks to higher transmission speeds, streaming media and live broadcast have become common usage scenarios;
  4. The 5G network will have greater capacity and faster data processing speed, and it will be possible to launch more new services through mobile phones, wearable devices and other networking hardware. The capacity of 5G is expected to be 1,000 times that of 4G. With 4G network, you can't really play games online in real time on your mobile phone, but you can do it with 5G network. The 4G network is built specifically for mobile phones and is not optimized for the Internet of Things. 5G technology provides ultra-large bandwidth for the Internet of Things. Compared with 4G, 5G networks can support more than 10 times the number of devices;

For users, the biggest difference between the 5G network and the 4G network is the speed. The maximum peak speed of the 4G network can reach the Internet speed of 1G, while the 5G can reach the highest 10G or even higher, and the speed can reach hundreds of times the former..

Simply put, the 5G network will be a real upgraded version of the 4G network. It will bring higher network speeds on the basis of the 4G network. In addition, the 5G network not only has a higher transmission rate, but also exhibits the characteristics of low latency, high reliability, and low power consumption in transmission. Low power consumption can better support future IoT applications.

The 5G network belongs to the next generation of mobile communication network technology. It is an upgraded version of the 4G network. If the mobile phone wants to experience the 4G network, not only the mobile phone chip needs to support the 5G network, but also the operator needs to deploy 5G network base stations.

In addition to an upgrade in mobile communication technology, 5G is also a general term for solutions after the evolution and integration of multiple wireless connection technologies.

In addition to solving the communication between people, it also solves the connection between people and things, things and things, and realizes the real interconnection of all things.
