It’s found that by 2020, the number of Internet connected devices globally will be more than 5 thousand crore, which will also feature IT facility.Despite the presence of 4G in the market, broadband speed could not be ensured. As per government definition, broadband speed has to be 10mbps. For mobile phones, clients will have to use the narrowband Internet. While Internet service providers and Wi-Max have come under this new definition, mobile users are outside its purview.
Relevant people say, to get broadband in mobiles, clients have to wait until 5G is introduced. Once this happens, Internet users will be able to use broadband in smartphones. The government plans to start 5G in 2021.
Bangladesh Telecommunication Regulatory Board, BTRC, has fixed Internet’s lowest speed; for broadband, the lowest will be 10mbps with 1mbps upload speed.
The government launched a broadband policy in 2009 with changes in 2016. The new policy states that Internet download speed has to be 80kbps for 2G, 2mbps for 3G and 7mbps for 4G.
President of Internet service providers Aminul Hakim says, “With fixed speed, everyone will be benefitted.”
We do not have any monitoring system and government supervision will be a huge boon for the users.
For proper broadband usage, phone users will have to wait until 5G is introduced, he added.
IT specialists say that 5G will change the lifestyle of the people. With this new system, driverless cars will be on the roads, virtual reality will be stronger, robot controlling will be possible and there will be a radical change in the medical and education sectors.
Due to improvement in telemedicine, patients will be able to consult health specialists while staying in rural areas.
It’s found that by 2020, the number of Internet-connected devices globally will be more than 5 thousand crore, which will also feature IT facility.
To run these, 5G technology will be needed since they will provide 40 times more speed than 4G. In this system, cinema will be downloaded in 6 seconds which now takes six minutes with 4G.
