Expect To See 5G in 2018!?

Wed, 27 Dec 2017 by Mphathi Nhlapo

5GB

The world is in a race to deploy the next generation of wireless technology, known as “fifth generation” or “5G”, which promises ultra-high mobile internet speeds and greater capacity

3GPP= The 3rd Generation Partnership Project, is a collaboration between groups of telecommunications associations, known as the organizational partners. whose purpose is to define the industry standards for technologies that would succeed the 4G LTE standard.

Earlier this year 3GPP officially announced that 5G would become the official name for the next generation of mobile connectivity technologies that would fix the flaws of its predecessor today’s 4G technologies like LTE and LTE – Advance.

5G are still being bedded down internationally Comsol CEO Mr Lain Stevenson believes the time is right to launch a network in South Africa. A new mobile generation has opened approximately every 9 years since the first 1G system in 1982.

SLT (Sri Lanka Telecom), along with Huawei Technologies, successfully carried out South Asia’s first comprehensive field trial of Pre-5G LTE Advanced Pro technology, laying the groundwork for the next generation of broadband technologies. They used a technology called Advanced Carrier Aggregation Technology where multiple LTE carriers can be used in tandem, thus increasing the overall data throughput. Using this technology, SLT successfully reached a downlink speed of 855.9 Mbit/s in TD-LTE 2500 MHz band. They also achieved a latency of 5.5 milliseconds, thus beating the record of 15 milliseconds latency, which is the current latency for existing LTE Advanced networks.

Most definitions of 5G assume that it will provide some combination of (1) high speed, (2) low latency, (3) the ability to use high frequencies well above 6 GHz, and (4) the ability to support huge numbers of users (some of which will be machines rather than human users) and applications. Some applications require high bandwidth and low latency; many machine-to-machine applications, by contrast, require only modest bandwidth, but imply the need to support huge numbers of devices.

The next wave of mobile network innovation is provoking great excitement in the industry. And indeed, there is substantial potential for improvement. However, the exact form of the technology and the appropriate policy support are still far from clear. And we should beware of over-ambitious promises about the impact and uptake of new network technologies.

The technical means of implementing this wide range of capabilities is still very much a work in progress… All we can do now is wait and see once released, all we need is faster connectivity and less data usage..

Come Over to the Bright side as MTN slash’s out-of-bundle rates #DataMustFall

Mon, 18 Dec 2017 by Mphathi Nhlapo

bright side

Mobile network provider MTN will slash data rates down to 29 cents per megabyte on its lowest tariff.

MTN SA CEO Godfrey Motsa said on Thursday the 30th of November 2017 that the network would be cutting data costs to 29c for its “Accidental users” who typically use less than 5MB per month, and those who use more can now expect to pay 60c out-of-bundle.

“We have been investing heavily in our network infrastructure, because customers are the basis of our network,” Motsa said.

During the same announcement Jacqui O’Sullivan, head of corporate affairs executive at MTN SA, said that, from Friday the 1st of December 2017, customers would be able to purchase 1GB data bundles through the network’s cellphone app for R49 which will be valid for a week.

Motsa added that MTN wants to drop data rates even further, but can only do this with more spectrum allocation.

“We would like to see out-of-bundle data drop even further for our customers and every time we have the opportunity to engage with government we ask for more spectrum to be released, because we understand the positive impact that more spectrum allocation has on the SA GDP,” Motsa said.

During his mini budget, Finance Minister Malusi Gigaba said the Council for Scientific and Industrial Research had completed a study on spectrum availability and open access on behalf of the Department of Telecommunications and Postal Services. The delay in allocating telecommunications spectrum constrains growth across the economy.

Lack of radio frequency limits the ability of businesses to deploy new technologies, and contributes to the high cost of broadband.

In comparison, and according to independent research, SA fares reasonably well compared to other African countries, which pay a higher price per gigabyte.

Come over to the bright side as MTN is getting in touch with the human emotion and giving its consumers exactly what they needed!

Get to know the new Snapchat Search Bar

Thu, 26 Jan 2017 by Mphathi Nhlapo

For years, one of the biggest criticisms of Snapchat has been that the app’s intentionally unintuitive design makes it difficult to use, particularly for new users. While longtime users are well-acquainted with the app’s swipe-based interface and other quirks, it could be difficult for newcomers (and, let’s be honest, older users) to grasp.

Some of that is now changing.

Earlier this week, Snapchat officially rolled out its latest update, which added a search bar that makes it much easier to find things within the app — although it does take some time to get right.

The good news, however, is that once you get used to it, you can actually save quite a bit of time as it reduces the need to swipe around to different parts of the app. Here’s a look at everything you need to know to master Snapchat’s new search.

The basics

The search bar can help you find conversations, contacts, friends, live stories and just about anything else you’d expect to find in the main section of the app. You can use this a few different ways, either as a shortcut to find specific group conversations or friends you already follow, or as a way to search for new friends.

Though some have dubbed it “universal search,” there are a few things you can’t find from the main search bar. Searching items in Memories, for example, still requires that you first navigate to the Memories section of the app (from there you can search for specific photos you have previously saved). You also can’t search the text of your chats or for items within, say, the settings menu.

You can search with emoji

If a friend uses an emoji in their username or emoji are used in the title of a group chat, then searching for that emoji will surface the relevant person or conversation. You may recall that Snapchat also uses emoji as its own form of verification for official accounts. In that case, it will surface the relevant celebrity (or celebrities) associated with that emoji.

You can watch stories from public accounts you don’t follow

Speaking of verified accounts, Snapchat’s search also allows you access the public-facing stories of verified users, even if you haven’t formally followed them in the app. Search for a celeb and a thumbnail will appear next to the add button if they have a current story. Tap into the story and you can watch without actually adding them.

We should note that this appears to apply to both officially verified accounts as well as normal accounts with public-facing stories. So, keep in mind that if you have your story set to be viewable by everyone, even those who don’t follow you can see it. (Note that if you have your story set to friends only, friends will also be able to view your story via search.)

New Friends and Quick Add

In the search menu, you’ll also notice a lower section that has three different menus: New Friends, Quick Add and contacts. These provide shortcuts to different people Snapchat predicts you may want to interact with.

New friends, as the name suggests, surfaces friends you have recently added. Contacts, on the other hand, shows people in your contacts who you haven’t yet added or those who you may want to invite to the app.

Likewise, the Quick Add section surfaces follow suggestions based on mutual friends and people you have recently added in your address book (the app displays this context under their username.)

Live Stories and Discover

Besides individual accounts and your own chats, you can also search for Discover publishers as well as live stories. There are a few different ways you can use this. You can search directly for a publisher or live story, like “NBA,” which would surface both the NBA’s publisher as well as any relevant live stories.

Or, you can also search by story title. For example, search for “Trump” and you can also see any relevant live story with the name in the title. However, this doesn’t apply to content within publisher channels, so searching for “Trump” won’t surface individual stories within Discover pages.
