Abstract

Developed by 3GPP, 5G is the technology standard for cellular broadband networks. Introduced in July of 2016 and commercialized almost 3 years later, it is seen as the successor to 4G networks. 5G uses device-to-device communication, dividing the service area into small geographical locations called cells. These cells are connected intensely through localized antennas. The connectivity of these antennas, despite being small, amounts to high-speed downloads ranging up to 10 Gbps. This chapter includes a brief introduction of 5G network; concise notes on the history of its predecessors such as 2G, 3G, and 4G; as well as a thorough look through the architecture of the 5G network model.
