So, what are 5G internet connections? 5G is what you will need in the near future.

5G is the 5th generation network. It is a new global wireless standard after 1G, 2G, 3G, and 4G networks. 5G networks is a new kind of computer networking solution with high performance and efficiency improvements.

Although there are methods to reduce the impact of slower latencies, these methods are only temporary solutions. This is where 5G could potentially change the way we use the Internet connection and interact with each other. While larger bandwidths and bigger computer networking capacities are nice, the biggest game-changer that 5G is bringing to the table is sub 1ms latency. This is achieved by using edge computing and by shortening the radio transmission’s transport block. Edge computing operates on the idea of bringing data to the edges of the Cloud so that the digital distance between the user and the data is shorter.

Meanwhile, shortening a radio transmission’s transport block will allow for faster data transfers. Currently, 4G LTE’s transport blocks have a minimum length of 1ms to be fully received. This means that the receiver must wait 1ms for the transport block to be completely received. However, 5G’s transport blocks can reach a minimum length of just 0.03125ms, greatly reducing the time it takes to receive data.
