The document summarizes key topics from the 2018 Mobile World Congress (MWC) conference. It discusses how 5G technology will enable new applications in industries like healthcare, smart cities, connected cars, and education by providing high-speed connectivity and low latency. Specific projects shown at MWC that utilize 5G included remote surgery assistance, smart water management, and connected vehicle platforms. Other areas highlighted included the Internet of Things (IoT), augmented security technologies, and applications of artificial intelligence like personalized e-commerce and media recommendations.

8. 5G IS COMING
WHAT DOES IT MEAN FOR INDUSTRIES?

9. 5G IS ABOUT REDUCING,
NOT INCREASING :)! WHY?

10. 5G, IS NOT JUST ABOUT
NETWORK SPEED.! A LOT OF PEOPLE THINK THAT 5G WILL BE THE NEXT
GENERATION FASTER NETWORK, AND THIS IS TRUE, BUT
TECHNOLOGICALLY CONSISTS OF THREE MAIN PILLARS:
MASSIVELY IMPROVED DATA THROUGHPUT, LOW-POWER
NETWORKS TO SUPPORT IOT AND MUCH LOWER LATENCY
(THE DELAY BETWEEN SENDING AND RECEIVING SIGNALS) TO
ENABLE CLEVER REMOTE-CONTROL ACTIONS.

11. IS ABOUT REDUCING THE
CONNECTION LATENCY.
BY REDUCING THE LATENCY, 5G CAN UNLEASH THE TRUE
POWER OF AI, THE "INTERNET OF EVERYTHING", THE
"DISTRIBUTED CLOUD" AND CREATE THE ADVANCES FROM
INTELLIGENT CITIES TO CONNECTED CARS TO BLOCKCHAIN
TRACKED LOGISTICS TO REMOTE CONSTRUCTION AND
MEDICAL DIAGNOSIS.

AT MWC THIS YEAR WE’VE SEEN A LOT OF
PROJECTS REGARDING THE USE OF 5G IN:
A few examples for each category

13. 5G technology superfast internet speeds and high levels
data transfer, to allow a specialized surgeon to guide
another surgeon in an operation without the specialist
having to be physically present in the procedure.

14. Everything that happens in the theater is recorded from
various different angles in order to send real time
information to the specialist with the use of 5G technology
reducing latency (the time delay) from the current 0.27 to
0.01 seconds; something that could literally mean the
difference between life or death.

The north face is using AI to better understand their consumers. By using IBM’s AI solution called
Watson, they enable online shoppers to discover their perfect jacket. They achieve this by asking the
customer questions e.g. “where and when will you be using your jacket?” through voice input AI
technology. IBM’s software then scans hundreds of products to find perfect matches based on real-
time customer input and its own research e.g. such as weather conditions in the local area.
