The law https://www.fcc.gov/5G
"
the Federal Communications Commission restricted cities’
ability to regulate 5G infrastructure. Under the new
rules, local governments face tight deadlines to approve
or reject the installation of this new cellular
equipment. The rules also put limits on how much money
cities can charge wireless firms for the privilege of
putting hardware in public rights of way."
5G
offers at least a tenfold improvement in network
performance.
The last major network upgrade was 4G, which debuted in
2009 (the year of the Colorado
balloon boy hoax),
with a peak speed of about 10 Mbps. In comparison, 5G is
poised to deliver peak speeds between 10 and 20 Gbps.
And network latency will drop from 30ms to about 1ms,
ideal for video game streaming, online video, and the
Internet of Things, which is anticipating 5G to connect
sensors, computers, and other devices with ultra-low
latency.
