we don’t know yet. Some of the PROPOSED CONCEPTS for 5G get so deep into technical specifications and challenges around meeting specific metrics (like sub-1ms latency) that is seems network USERS become the forest lost for the trees, to co-opt an old adage. But that’s not necessarily what operators and vendors intend. FIERCE Wireless notes that, during the NGMN Industry Conference & EXHIBITION 2015, speakers and panelists put effort into sharing their focus on use cases rather than technology. That said, it’s hard to predict the future so those use cases are “imagined;” the industry really doesn’t know yet where the money will be.
