5G Terms and Acronyms Defined

<p>5G</p> <p>TERMS AND ACRONYMS</p> <p>Common Terms &amp; Acronyms</p> <p>The promise of 5G is faster and more reliable communications. 5G opens doors to exciting new connections to Internet of Things (IoT) networks, autonomous driving, broadband wireless, and interruption-free video viewing. Whatever you develop 5G technology for, it will be imperative to understand design and test concepts and solutions across multiple dimensions. There are a lot of 5G terms and more on the way. We’ve got you covered – here’s a list of what’s out there today.</p> <p>2G</p> <p>Second-generation digital cellular networks used by mobile phones, designed as a replacement for analog first-generation radio (1G). Designed primarily for voice using digital standards.</p> <p>3G</p> <p>Third-generation wireless mobile telecommunications technology, required by International Mobile Telecommunications for the year 2000 (IMT-2000) standard from International Telecommunication Union (ITU) to support at least 200 kbps at peak rate. First mobile broadband utilizing IP protocols added text and image messaging to voice phone calls.</p> <p>3GPP – 3rd Generation Partnership Project</p> <p>A mobile communications industry collaboration that organizes the development and management of mobile communications standards.
