Why the need for 5G Low Latency?


The key to true 5G high bandwidth needs as well as low bandwidth needs. The quick response for most devices will be needed so that applications can “talk” as close to real time as possible. You may have seen the RTC, Real Time Communication, a term tossed around RTC is where the device needs to react very quickly, and there is little time for delay. For instance, self-driving cars., They must process the data, so when they communicate with the devices around them, they need to have as little delay as possible. I am talking microseconds, not milliseconds. Why? Because they still need time to process the data. 

Self-driving cars won’t just talk to the network, but they will be talking to cars around them, “looking” all around them, driving the car, making thousands of decisions every second, millions every minute. Deciding how to prepare for the road ahead, the environment around them, and what’s the next move. They will always be concerned about what’s next outside the car and inside the car.

Therefore, the communications system must talk quickly, hence, low latency.
