What is one of the main goals of 5G technology?

• To provide unlimited data plans

• To support a million connections per square meter

• To eliminate the need for mobile towers

• To replace all existing 4G networks

Why is the claim that 5G is 100 times faster than 4G considered a misunderstanding?

• Because 5G has not been defined yet

• Because 5G focuses on latency, not download speed

• All of the above

• Because 4G already has peak speeds of 1 GBPS

What is a common misconception about beamforming in 5G?

• It will be used in all 5G networks

• It requires no additional infrastructure

• It is the same as 5GHz Wi-Fi

• It is only for industrial IoT users

What is a reason for the slow definition of 5G standards?

• Lack of consumer interest

• Government restrictions

• Insufficient trials and theories

• Overwhelming success of 4G

How might automation impact jobs according to the video?

• It will create more labor jobs

• It will have no impact on jobs

• It will eliminate all jobs

• It will shift jobs towards development and corporate roles
