Correct option is C
The correct answer is (c) Both (A) and (B)
Explanation:
- 5G wireless technology is estimated to be 10 times faster or more than 4 G.
- It offers enhanced data rates, lower latency, and higher network capacity, enabling advanced technologies like IoT, AI-based automation, augmented/virtual reality, and autonomous vehicles.
- 4G technology indeed provides the foundation for 5G, particularly in early deployments.
- Non-Standalone (NSA) 5G architecture leverages existing 4G LTE infrastructure, allowing for a smoother and cost-effective transition to full 5G (Standalone or SA mode).
Information Booster:
5G Features:
- Speed: Up to 10 Gbps.
- Latency: As low as 1 millisecond.
- Bandwidth: Supports a larger number of connected devices.
- Applications: Smart cities, industrial automation, telemedicine, remote surgeries, etc.
India's 5G Launch:
India launched its 5G services in October 2022, with initial rollouts in major cities.
Additional Knowledge:
Key Features of 6G Technology
Terahertz (THz) Frequencies:
Operates on THz waves (~1 mm wavelength).
Enables ultra-high data rates due to shorter wavelengths.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) Integration:
Enhances network efficiency by managing traffic and ensuring reliable data delivery.
Massive MIMO:
Uses large antenna arrays for higher capacity and simultaneous device connectivity.
Device Density:
Supports billions of connected devices, including IoT sensors and actuators.
Network Slicing:
Splits networks into smaller segments to prioritize and manage traffic types (e.g., video vs automation).
Enhanced Security:
Advanced encryption and authentication for secure data handling.
xURLLC (Extended URLLC):
Ultra-Reliable Low Latency Communication even under heavy traffic.
Supports critical applications like industrial automation, AR/VR, intelligent transport, and metaverse.
Integrated Intelligent Reflecting Surfaces (IIRS):
Reflects and boosts radio signals for better coverage in low-reception areas.
