5G is the fifth generation of wireless communication technology. This type of internet is used by mobile devices that allow connection to the network from anywhere. The term comes from the successor to 4G, which was planned in 2009 but not launched until 2010, and only began its global rollout in 2013, surpassing 3G networks. 5G networks began their deployment in 2019. This rollout began when device manufacturers started researching consumer needs and creating mobile phones compatible with this technology. Following this timeline, the network could become the latest cutting-edge technology by the end of 2022 or the beginning of 2023. Compared to 4G, the 5G network operates across a wider range. The most common form used for 5G is Sub-6, which means it operates at a frequency below 6 GHz. 5G is understood to be faster than 4G. The advantages are demonstrated by the maximum data speed offered by 5G. It reaches 20 Gbps download and 10 Gbps upload. To enjoy this speed, you need the appropriate connection, meaning a device compatible with this technology. Regarding the latency of this latest network technology, the data travel time should ideally be 4 milliseconds and 1 millisecond for maximum speed. Efficiency must be a focus on energy management to avoid low power levels; the network should switch state every 10 milliseconds when no longer in use. It is estimated that the 5G network should support more connected devices than LTE, approximately 1 million per square kilometer. In Chile, they are currently testing the latest network in some municipalities, such as Las Condes and Providencia. It is expected that 366 towns and 199 hospitals will benefit from the speed of 5G.
