The starters bell for 5G has been fired in the US.

#1 Post by gcmartin »

Few years back I posted on SDN. It figures strongly in this recent communications technology announcement.

Key accurate Quote in the article
"If anyone tells you they know the details of what 5G will deliver, walk the other way,"
And even after is starts to roll out, ask the same "anyone" which SDN being used in 5G are they referring to.

It would explain your position better if you explained what SDN is ?

Seems 5G is planned to operate on much higher frequencies ,chips for which do not even exist yet.
What the FCC did today is open up an electromagnetic frontier of frequencies. Now it's up to wireless companies to homestead the territory. The U.S. will be the epicenter for 5G, because it's the first place in the world to open up the ultra-high frequencies that will make these data speeds possible: a massive swath of microwaves between 27.5GHz and 71 GHz. This is fundamentally different spectrum than what's been used before, a range from around 600MHz to 3GHz. The FCC also just announced the intention to make another 18 GHz of spectrum available for 5G in the future.

For technology in communications: SDN across wired/wireless/cell adapters. I mentioned this because the spectrum change has various needs that the speed increases and frequency adjustments will benefit.

SDN Wikipedia page is several years old and is here.

2020 is the most recent target year everyone is talking about today: IoT projections, Internet use projections, Cloud projections, etc. Our world has never seen this kind of percentage growth of anything against human population (excepting viruses maybe). It eclipses almost everything we have known; and in my case, I am not aware of any historical references of such expansions, percentagewise, from the past.

We will all be touched by these changes.

Perhaps the sound of the bell being fired did not carry to Arizona.
