Solution: 1G – introduced in 1982, used analog signals and had low bandwidth; 2G – introduced in 1992, used digital signals primarily for voice communication and provided data communication up to 10 Kbps; 2.5G – used digital signals and provided voice and data communication up to 144 Kbps; 3G – introduced in 2001, used digital signals and could transmit data at different speeds based on travel speed, supported video, web browsing, and instant messaging; 4G – introduced in 2012 are not one defined technology or standard, secure mobile broadband system to all types of mobile devices, LTE – support roaming, XLTE – handle network congestion when too many people in one area try to access an LTE network; 5G – experiment at the 2018 Winter Olympics and more widespread deployment in 2019
Millimeter wave (can transmit data at very high speeds with extremely low latency BUT signals travel shorter distances and have trouble penetrating obstacles such as walls) and standard 5G (only slightly faster than current 4G; main benefit to reduce latency)
