To understand why Dean is so excited, let's review the performance specs
Parameter Value Latency in the air link <1ms Latency end-to-end (device to core) <10ms Connection density100x compared with LTE Area capacity density 1Tbit/s/km2 System spectral efficiency10bit/s/Hz/cell Peak throughput (downlink) per connection10Gbit/s Energy efficiency >90% improvement over LTE Let's think through the implications - millisecond latency, real-time stereo video is 120 Hz, can can now have isochronous multi-cast AV - roundtrip latency <10ms ... this is a key threshold for interactivity, eg haptic feedback for industrial applications - connection density - better scaling in crowds areas without additional towers, - programable micro-cells enable fog computing which combines cloud with edge caching - TCP/IPv6 ... no need for NAT, direct P2P (if can get rid of that cumbersome SIP) - reduced battery = smaller wearable dedicated devices or extended life IoT disposable use until no-charge like most tech, there'll be hype in the short time but if it goes from a metered system to an all-you-can-eat bandwidth (much like ISPs moved from modems to continuous internet in 90s) then you will see some radical changes.
