What Is 5G

5G is the fifth generation of cellular network technology, succeeding 4G. 5G networks divide coverage areas into smaller zones called cells, allowing devices to connect to local base stations via radio. 5G supports massive connectivity for sensors and machines, commonly referred to as the Internet of things (IoT). The development of 5G has involved the collaboration of numerous companies and organizations, including Qualcomm, Ericsson, and Nokia.
