"2020 Network" - a concept of the development of broadband, converged and IP-based networks, aimed at supporting the ever-increasing traffic growth in the coming reality of large data (big data) and Internet of Things (IoT).
Its main features - almost unlimited capacity and flexibility, the ability to quickly adapt and support existing and emerging applications.From the point of view of the operators, it requires infrastructure, which will significantly increase the connection speed and increase mobile penetration, as well as tighter cooperation with IT providers, according to Alcatel-Lucent.
The number 2020 in the name of the concept refers to the year that has already provisionally declared the Year of 5G.Total investment in the development of networks for 5 years was estimated from different vendors, about $ 4-5 trillion. According to the GSM Association forecasts (the GSMA), during this period the number of unique mobile subscribers will grow to 4.6 billion people (in 2014 - 3.6 billion) and the number of active SIM-cards (including those used in M2M devices) - up to 9 billion pieces (in 2014 - 7.1 billion). Ericsson believes that 5G network will have to support the increased 1000 times the volume of mobile data and grown to 100 times the number of connected devices.
The main innovators towards 5G are primarily Asian countries: South Korea and Japan, where the Olympic Games 2018 and 2020 will be held and where new generation networks are built as part of the future infrastructure.The two countries plan to demonstrate the capabilities of these networks. It is expected that the standardization will be addressed in 2016. The initiative involves the Alcatel-Lucent, Ericsson, Nokia, Orange, Thales Alenia Space and a number of other players.The first launches of networks in the non-profit format will begin in 2017-2018, And just in 2020 5G will fully unfold around the world.
5G - it is a reality in which there will be self-guided vehicles, robots, as well as new opportunities for businesses and society as a whole.In fact, it is the creation of a new telecom landscape - higher (up to 100 times higher than current) speed, with advanced technology and with significantly lower energy consumption.
