There are many objectives in communication industries, and solutions and perceptions are usually subjective to the growth of wireless Internet access. What are the challenges attributed to growth? Are they exponentially degrading to advancement? Are these challenges quantified in the matter of cost?
There are many uncertainties related to the future of wireless Internet access, many of these are related to the performance of such services from varied perspectives.
With fifth generation Wi-Fi speeds now supporting the Gigabit barrier at 1.3Gbps, there is no limit as to what wireless channels can do for high definition purposes. The need for consistent wireless connections have been superseded by the need for capacity and speed, and has driven innovation to an accelerated trend of growth.
This means that you can access speeds of over 1.3Gbps in a band that is as wide as 80Mhz. This expresses the growth of wireless Internet access in four dimensions:
1. In Capacity, referring to broadband connectivity for high definition communication
2. In Speed, referring to increased rates of up to 1.3Gbps
3. In Security, meaning increased capacities and speeds offer better parameters for signal encryption
4. In Reliability, meaning that the range of access increases, and interference is avoided
These four dimensions represent the aggregate attributes that are demanded in the industry, while it is not a perfect scenario, each innovative effort brings them closer to reality, where the challenges associated with these technical advancements are averted.
Mobility
By the end of the decade, it is expected that the number of active wireless devices to reach an incredible level. This is because of the growth and demand for mobility, where computers, phones, specialized devices and terminals have adopted a 'cordless' approach to broadband communication. WiFi access is an essential feature in all modern manufacturing for all mobile devices like tablets and smartphones, and the growth of Internet access in capacity, speed, security and reliability is to play a huge growth in the adoption of wireless access in even more devices. The challenges associated with mobility have to do with range, since hot-spots need localized infrastructure to offer the kind of broadband services that are in demand
Solution Integration
The carriage of Voice, Video and Data is supported on one channel in simultaneous transmissions through signal modulation; structured methods of encrypting and retrieval of specific information over a single channel. This being the technical description, application of such a solution would be seen in the ability to conduct a phone conversation and access data and video at the same time through a wireless channel. This gives rise to devices like a Wi-Fi enabled Television set. The growth of Internet services in this regard will lead to hosting of entertainment and hi definition solutions on remote sites, like the current use Internet hosted videos streaming live high definition content.
Collaboration
Wireless Internet increases collaboration, which is the virtual form of team-work based performance, dependent on reliable and portable access to the Internet. Increased wireless capacity definitely adds to this, which makes new strides on collaboration standards and models. Technology cannot be leveraged as a limitation to productivity, but an avenue for increased performance.
Conclusion
Growth is definitely expected in the use of next generation Wireless Access technologies, and the speeds and capacities expected to grow towards a more unhinged community in terms of mobility, collaboration and Solution Integration. Without expected growth, there would be no place for innovation and competitive modeling of operational strategies that accelerate the gains of a company, increase the convenience of a user or reduce the cost of accessing quality and high resolution content on or over the Internet.
