Space's part in the 5G revolution

Everybody is talking about 5G, the new generation of wireless communication. We are at the start of a revolution in connectivity for everything, everywhere, at all times.
Space plays at important roll in this revolution. We need satellites to ensure businesses and citizens can benefit smoothly from 5G.

I love it when we evolve at a pace that can be detected and Observed, as opposed to evolving over a hundred years or so. The next 20-Years are going to blow some minds, so you all better be ready for the next 20-30-Years, It's going to be one hell of a ride.

This video reminds me in a nuthell videos.

Uh, 5G modulation doesn't really increase the bandwidth of existing bands. It improves it by maybe 15-20%. All the gains from 5G come from the millimeter wave high bands and the fact that multiple GHz of new spectrum is going to be (or has been) auctioned off in various countries. But millimeter wave has terrible propagation. Not only because the wavelength is so tiny and 1/r^2 losses but because of the water and other atmospheric absorption. Putting 5G stuff up in space for ground or sea use is just silly.

So basically it's skynet? I feel much better now.

Isn't there a problem, with how much energy a transmission from your smartphone to a satellite needs?

How about some research on possible damaging health effects BEFORE adding more to the already existing wi-fi soup?

Thanks for the video. However, I did not see anything in the video that addressed the health concerns that are associated with 5G.

Tudo muito bonito, mas quando chegar em casa, desligue o celular o modem e de atenção as outras coisas ao redor.
