    Verizon 3G Shut Down and Focused on 5G

    The fifth-generation (5G) technology is anticipated to revolutionize the role of telecommunications in the world essentially. 5G is anticipated to promote the pervasive digitalization of a hyperconnected world, where some people are still not connected to the network whenever needed. It is a breakthrough innovation that offers nearly limitless capabilities and opportunities for users. With smartphones, mobile broadband technology, and such an amazingly easy-to-use interface with GPS capability, virtually creates a word with everything connected. Designing the previous generations of mobile networks, such as 3G, was purposeful for delivering communication services such as messaging and voice, or mobile broadband such as 4G, 5G is expected to have configurability and flexibility at the heart of its design (Attaran). It will enable mobile operators to serve IoT use cases and support ultra-reliable, enhanced mobile broadband and latency connections. Therefore, 5G technology presents a cycle of innovative technologies with faster downloads and browsing speed, less latency, and the accuracy to pinpoint locations.

    The design of 5G is intended to convey peak data rates to 20 Gbps. Apart from the high peak data rates, 5G technology is devised to offer a high network capability by spreading out into a novel spectrum, such as mm Wave. 5G is the base for digital revolution. It is an actual enhancement on the other mobile generation networks, which offer the end-user multiple services such as Extreme mobile broadband. It provides faster connectivity to the internet, moderate latency, greater bandwidth, virtual reality, etc. End-users enjoy long-range and broadband machine-type communication at a lower price with lower power consumption. Users enjoy a great data rate service, extended coverage, and low power. With 5G technology, users enjoy unlimited internet connection anytime, low latency, high throughput, higher reliability, scalability, very high speed, and energy-effective mobile communication technology. mm Wave is a vital feature of the 5G network, supporting a high-performance network. This feature offers diverse services, making it necessary for all network providers to include this technology in their 5G deployment planning. With the 5G mm Wave, the next-generation mobile network will faster wireless communication and ultra-wide bandwidth.

    The 5G technology offers innovative technology for low-latency, energy-efficient, and high-consistent and dependable communication networks. 5G communication networks advance on the performance of the 3G network depending on the number of links, throughput, and delay concurrently. It brazens out a broad array of future applications, such as person-to-machine, person-to-person, and machine-to-machine applications tied to reliability, energy efficiency, and reduced delay. The system design of the 5G communication facilitates low latency and highly reliable communication networks. Verizon, American multinational telecommunication, is among the companies shutting down 3G and focusing on 5G. Thirty cities in the U.S. have actively received 5G services from this company by December 2020. It is looking forward to deploying this network in thirty more cities. The company has deployed a 5G network on mmWave, a very high band spectrum between 30 to 300 GHz. This breakthrough greatly benefits the next-generation mobile networks to enjoy an ultra-wide bandwidth with faster wireless communication. Mm Wave gives a high-speed and high-band spectrum with a limited range. By 2020, Verizon plans to raise its 5G Cells number by 500 percent. All these efforts by Verizon are intended to achieve a flexible, reliable, and scalable 5G network for their customers.

    The 5G network presents an opportunity to build and incorporate mobilization localization technology within this network. A mobile communication system with location information enables multiple location-based applications and aids in improving the performance of communication systems. The 5G technology supports network-based localization, achieving appropriate accuracy, particularly indoor scenarios. Network-based localization is chosen to deal with problems of appropriate unachieved accuracy within indoor scenarios. From the beginning of 5G, there has been an opportunity to create and integrate mobile radio-based localization technologies. Such integration would natively support many LBS services and realize location-aware communication. If this opportunity is missed, it would require a huge investment to acquire location information with accuracy and limited coverage, which will significantly reduce the potential contribution of 5G to communication and potential economic services.

    Network-based localization is associated with innovative technologies such as smaller cells. The 5G technology is anticipated to support nested small cells, constituting fractions of a square kilometer. These cells include the femtocells (Wi-Fi-like range), picocells (ranging under 100m), and distributed antenna systems with similar coverage to picocells. The LOS path dominates radio channels in small cells. 5G offers higher frequencies and signal bandwidths, which improves the variance of TOA measurement's accuracy. In addition, higher signal bandwidths will enable a better resolution of multipath constituents, increasing the chances of finding a LOS path and minimizing error resulting from multipath biases. The LOS receptions dominate higher carrier frequencies, especially the mmWave spectrum, as any NLOS path is prone to blockage. It helps minimize the potential bias that results when NLOS paths are misused. Besides, immense MIMO schemes are enabled through the higher frequencies this network supports. It offers extra direction measurements by setting various antennas on individual terminals. Device-to-device (D2D) communications and higher MT densities are important features supported by the 5G network that facilitates high-accuracy localization. D2D communications make it easier to share necessary data that can be utilized to dispense the localization task, move location data, share channel data, and set up anchors, such as terminals with identified locations. Thus, 5G networks offer the first generation to benefit from location data with adequately accurate location data hugely.

    Generally, the 5G technology presents a breakthrough toward realizing a world where everything is connected. This network is significant in developing IoT, connecting several things with the internet, such as devices, appliances, sensors, applications, and objects. These applications are essential in collecting data from multiple devices and sensors. 5G promises high-speed internet connectivity for rapid data gathering, transmission, processing, and control. It has unused spectrum availability, high flexibility, and provides a cheaper deployment, making it the most effective technology for IoT. With 5G network, mobile phones and other devices will work faster compared to 4G network. It has 20Gbps which gives it faster speed enabling users to download videos, movies, and music in few seconds.

    In conclusion, the mobile industry is rapidly evolving in preparation to deploy the 5G networks. The 5G networks are revolutionizing so rapidly, have become more available, and are a considerable driver of the advancement of mobile technologies. 5G offers a faster connection and low latency. The beginning of the 5G technology is a significant generational step that shows potential in opening a new world of possibilities across the tech industries. This network will continue to revolutionize as organizations work towards its subsequent phase, although it may take some time before the full rollout and utilization of 5G networks. It is projected to scale rapidly with extensive coverage reaching more than half of the global population in five years. It will facilitate faster communication through rapid information sharing, faster download and browsing speed, less latency, and accuracy in pinpointing locations. It paves the way for a cycle of innovative technologies that will positively impact people's lives in numerous ways.
