Why 5G in Railways ? How it's Serve to the Users in Network Breakdown?

5G is the culmination of the process that will take us on a new trajectory of technological innovation, with the help of new framework that merges Cloud, Big Data, IoT, automation and AI to gain insights generated from billions of connected devices. Due to the extensive technological sophistication of 5G, selecting a site for 5G cells requires certain is more complex than selecting a site for 3G or 4G.

5G need minimum 50 times more antenna locations than 3G or 4G. Also, 5G signals are more powerful but they are unable to travel far and wide like its previous incarnations.

The main advantage of 5G is that of one cell site is not working; the other site would cater to customer demands. Instead of concentrating a large number of cells at a single location, 5G cells are spread at different locations so that in case of a network breakdown issues, users can continue to get efficient services. 5G’s higher frequencies which is needed to carry huge amounts of data have a very short range which can be impacted by smallest of the obstructions. The signal is so sensitive that it can be blocked by the palm of your hand, or even a raindrop.

5G will also require denser telecom network more towers placed selectively and strategically. Therefore, accurate, authoritative geospatial data is fundamental here to plan network towers.

Since the 5G network cells would be evenly distributed in a large area, it is important to select a location. As such, 5G and geospatial will together power future cities.
