Recently there has been a lot of buzz about 5G networks. Aside from the talk about it possibly being nationalized, 5G will be a lot different than its predecessors. Rather than a single data link in a predetermined band, 5G will consist of a web of connections all working together to support existing types of data traffic and many new types, including automotive, IoT and others. In urban areas, there will be a large number of smaller nodes using GHz bands that do not travel far. Also, it will support IoT and automotive data traffic traffic that will require low latency and packet sizes suited to the data payloads.
