Samsung to work on networks: 5G Gigabit connections to 1 by 2020

Into Two times faster than 4G, ten times higher than the 3G capability with a transfer rate of 150 megabits per second, the mobile network LTE (Long Term Evolution) Advanced realized South Korean operator SK Telecom has set a new world record in speed data connection.
what it means to have this capability on board of the mobile phone tells a very concrete example: to download a movie of 800 Mbytes serve only 43 seconds, compared to the 80 needed by exploiting the current LTE network.

Other smartphone ultra fast incoming
The experiment was staged successfully in today Seoul saw as the protagonist announced the LTE-A version of the new super smartphone Samsung Galaxy S4, in fact the first terminal in the world with the new 4G technology “advanced” (and the first manufacturer to integrate the new quad core processor Snapdragon 800 Qualcomm) to see the market.
Other phones can achieve the same performance in terms of download speed, among them certainly an opinion piece by LG Electronics, will arrive in the catalog of SK Telecom later this year. The commercial services supported the new LTE-Advanced network of the largest mobile carrier in the Asian country will instead be initially available immediately in the South Korean capital and its suburbs in the coming months and will reach 84 other Korean cities.

The development of 4G networ ks in the world
South Korea is not new to this type of primates – is at the top of the world rankings in terms of penetration and network capacity ultra-wideband (fixed and mobile) – and in this sense it is not surprising that more than 60 percent of its 33 million smartphone users have already signed an LTE service.
Worldwide instead, are authentic data of GSM Association, that the fourth-generation mobile networks will be available in 87 countries by the end of 2013. In Italy, for the moment, 4G coverage offered by Tim, Vodafone, Wind and 3 is limited to a few large cities and some tourist resorts.
Before you can perform a test like the one seen in Seoul in Milan or Rome and surf the Net with our smartphones to 150 Megabits will then still have some time. But the future is definitely traced, not to mention the fact that the LTE Advanced technology still has room for further improvement. The upload speed is in fact equal to 37.5 megabit s per second, and that the same capacity afforded by LTE networks available today.

networks 5G 2020
From China to the United States, telco operators in every nation are still engaged in the transition of their networks from the standard 3G (which will remain the dominant one until at least 2017) to 4G. The goal of the immediate future is called instead 5G, and is set for 2020.
