Fired up on 5G: Communications infrastructure is the backbone of the future digital economy and society, creating more and better jobs, and contributing to sustainable economic growth, say the Brazil and the European Commission.

LONDON: Communications group Arqiva and Samsung Electronics will trial Britain's first 5G network in London this year, the companies said, with the capability of delivering ultra-fast broadband to mobile devices and potentially autonomous vehicles.

The advent of the fifth generation of mobile telecoms is viewed as essential to expected growth in demand for ever-higher speeds, capacity and reliability, with global operators such as Vodafone, Telefonica and Verizon working with network equipment makers to develop the technology.
