Samsung has announced that it's successfully developed a core technology for 5G which it hopes to deploy by 2020, reports Yonhap News.
The new technology will significantly increase wireless network speeds allowing users to download a movie in less than a second.
Under the new platform, users can download and upload data at speeds of up to tens of gigabits per second (Gbps), compared to 75 megabits per second (Mbps) posted by the fourth-generation long-term evolution (LTE) service.
Samsung Electronics said it has successfully tested the platform using the 28 Gigahertz (GHz) waveband to transmit data at a speed of 1 Gbps, which earlier had been considered as a conundrum by global industry players.According to the report, the company used 64 antenna elements to overcome the issue and let the device exchange real-time signals under the platform.
