Nokia – Ten Key Rules of 5G Deployment
Ten key rules of 5G deployment Enabling 1 Tbit/s/km2 in 2030 By 2030 there is likely to be as much as 10,000 times more wireless data traffic criss-crossing networks than there was in 2010, according to Nokia estimates. The growth will be driven by the use of ultra-high resolution video streaming, the ubiquity of cloud-based applications, entertainment and greater use of high resolution screens at form factors we may not even guess at today. As well as more of the same, we will see new use cases, applications and devices stemming from the powerful trend…Read more -
