Technological innovation
May 12, 2020
The Covid-19 pandemic has altered the lives and lifestyles of people around the world. In this new reality, communication technology offers solutions to overcome some of the challenges posed by the pandemic. With social distancing and work from home becoming the new reality, technological trends will have to be updated. Parag Naik, co-founder and CEO, Saankhya Labs, tells us what technology trends we can expect in a post-Covid world.
Virtual meetings
May 12, 2020
Already, applications like Zoom and Google Meet have seen a sudden outbreak in users. From meetings with only 4-5 participants, to large seminars and international conferences with thousands of participants, all have already moved online. This trend is likely to continue in the post-Covid world as people maintain the label of social distancing.
Online education
May 12, 2020
Dedicated educational apps have witnessed tremendous growth as students learn concepts on their mobile phones. Some universities have also conducted online tests. Some of these trends are expected to continue in the post-Covid period as well. Many universities and school boards of education have recommended that schools and colleges should try to complete part of the curriculum online, even after the situation returns to normal.
5G
May 12, 2020
With the increasing demand for faster and higher bandwidth networks, due to remote work, 5G, which is the next generation network designed with “service-based” architecture, could be adopted more quickly. 5G provides a higher quality of service based on the “Slice” network, which is adapted to a particular type of service, such as IoT, low latency applications, etc.
Shared spectrum
May 12, 2020
Technology trends make it clear that in a post-Covid world, more content will be viewed and consumed on mobile devices, whether in the form of a video conference for a meeting, an online class, or video for entertainment. Even before the pandemic, video occupied more than 70% of the content transmitted over the mobile network. This will increase exponentially in the post-Covid world and will overload mobile networks that are not designed to handle that load. To avoid network congestion and improve the user experience, communication companies will use the “Shared” spectrum.
