The number of cities globally with access to 5G reached 1,662, according to a VIAVI Solutions report released in 2021, a growth of more than 20% over the year. Now it was again increased.

In no order, we examine which city's 5G is the fastest in terms of bandwidth expansion and deployment as the network continues to grow exponentially with user demand. Due to substantial rollouts and the expansion of 5G solutions, South Korea is the first country to adopt 5G in 2018. But China has been at the forefront of the race for 5G breakthroughs over the past three years. More than 10,000 5G applications exist in various fields, including, healthcare, transportation, and education but not limited to. Along with China, the United States is one of the largest nations in the 5G industry. A recent report from Ericsson predicts that by 2026, there will be about 195 million 5G subscriptions, and by 2029, the technology would make up 71.5% of the whole US mobile market. According to the Cellular Telecommunication Industry Association (CTIA).

What is Latency?

         Latency is the amount of time between transmissions of a data packet. One-way latency is the period between sending a packet and its destination receiving it, and roundtrip latency is the period between sending a packet and receiving an acknowledgement. For example, may you all be familiar with video conferences during the covid-19 pandemic, you may hear a delay of 2-3 seconds after you transmitted the data right? This 2-3 second delay is known as latency. Not only in a video conference, networking and working of applications based on edge computing, there some delay may occur, but this latency is also very low in 5G. It was eliminated.
