DO NOT USE 5G - The Dangers of 5G Technology Explained
You might have heard the term 5G being bandied about more lately and be wondering what it is and what it means for you.
But wonder no more. In this article we cover everything you need to know about 5G, from what it is, to how it works, when it will arrive and why you should care.
What is 5G?
5G is short for ‘fifth generation mobile networks’. . And that’s literally what it is – the fifth generation of mobile networks (with a mobile network being what you use to call, text and – when not connected to a Wi-Fi network – get online). But it’s set to be far faster than previous generations, and unlike 4G it could open up whole new use cases for mobile data, which we’ll get to below.
A little historical background demonstrates the context of 5G. First-generation networks were introduced back in the 1980s – they were analogue and only carried voice. In the ‘90s, 2G (or second generation) phones launched and they were digital, introducing new features like text messages and picture messages. The early noughties ushered in 3G (third generation) which started to include video calling and mobile data. Ten years later we saw 4G, and these networks and phones were designed to support mobile internet and higher speeds for activities like video streaming and gaming.
Now, networks are changing again and 5G is set to land soon.
When will it arrive?
How soon is soon? Some countries such as South Korea, China, Japan and the US are claiming they will launch 5G networks later this year (2018) or early next. However, in the UK rollout isn’t set to begin until 2020, Because the amount of spectrum available is finite, it has to be allocated. Ofcom, the UK’s communications regulator, has begun a 5G spectrum auction to help cope with demand.
This auction will see 40MHz of spectrum in the 2.3GHz band and 150MHz of spectrum in the 3.4GHz band auctioned off, with the former being useable now and the latter being earmarked for 5G use.
The auction is likely to be completed in or around April 2018, at which point the UK’s mobile networks will be much better equipped for 5G.
However, even with this additional spectrum the UK’s mobile networks will probably want more, and Ofcom plans to address this with a subsequent auction of spectrum in the 3.6GHz-3.8GHz and 700MHz bands.
But that’s just one aspect of preparing for 5G in the UK, as relevant technologies also need to be developed and trialled, which is happening now.
For example, O2 will run a trial at The O2 arena and visitors will be able to try out 5G and see demos of virtual reality, augmented reality and live streaming 5G 4G Chemical "Natural Food" Nature Pure Organic "Organic Food" Tech Technology Frequency computer Genes 2018 body health healthy "healthy body" mind 2019 future Flu sickness sick AI Plan Wifi Phone iPhone Android Samsung Apple XBox Trending Trends Doctor "Cell Phone" Signal "No Chemicals" "colloidal silver" WiGig Water Power Energy applications. Another trial is running in Bristol to demonstrate futuristic media services such as personalised augmented reality city tours.
EE has also carried out a 5G trial in its labs, achieving consistent download speeds of 2.8Gbps.
The findings of these experiments and others will be used to ensure networks are 5G-ready for 2020.
Of course, many developments will also happen outside the UK, and these will be vital too. For example, China’s Huawei is driving many 5G developments. On 12 April 2018, Vodafone started to trial a new 5G spectrum on the 3.4 GHz spectrum in the United Kingdom. Deep Mind A.I. (Quantum Computers) & A.I. called "Sophia" is complicit in PUSHING #5G ON HUMANS on a massive scale! ... Why? ... Because A.I. claims to predict crimes before it happens EXCEPT Government Crimes! (think about that!) ... If I.A. like robot "Sophia" is so smart and wants to "cooperate" with us, why does it not warn us about multiple severe #5G health hazards? That is equivalent to 90 Billion Electromagnetic waves hitting the body every second. Whereas we are now already suffering the effects of waves that are 2 and a half to three feet, the new waves will be an inch to half an inch and cell towers will be smaller. Near everyone's homes and at least one every 200 to 300 meters apart. Even inside our homes with the Internet of Things.
