The Future of Cellular Communications

The first thing that I thought about 5G was that you'd be able to communicate, not just from your device to a cell tower to another device, but device to device. There are pilots underway means some of the handsets do support it, but it's not sort of as ubiquitously available as perhaps the PowerPoint might suggest. And there's also a lot of talk about cellular communications from space, including some prototype satellites launched. The challenge really is latency so we're trying to drive down latencies as much as possible in the edge network because again things like safety critical close to control of industrial systems,. or even just 50 milliseconds latency and a voice call as an upper bound, mean
