Five thingsTO KNOW

It promises a new era of technology, but super-fast 5G net-working is one of the factors that has put Sino-US relationsinto a tailspin. Recently, in response to the US sanctions onHuawei, Britain too ordered the staged dismantling of theequipment made by the Chinese telecom giant from its 5Gnetwork. Here are five things to know about the next gen-eration of telecommunications...

5 To bring the promised speeds to the masses, 5Grequires a whole new infrastructure of masts, basestations and receivers. Among the networking

companies in the race are: Huawei, Sweden's Ericsson,Nokia of Finland, Samsung and NEC of Japan. Mobile oper-ators are expected to spend $1.1 trillion worldwide by2025 in investment, 80 per cent of which will be on 5Gnetworks, according to the GSMA.

Why have some governments banned the Huaweiequipment? US intelligence agencies allege thatHuawei has links with the Chinese government, andthat its equipment could contain "backdoors" foruse by government spies. However, no evidence hasbeen produced publicly, and the firm has repeatedlydenied the claims

Five thingsTO KNOW

TECHNOLOGY

1 It is the fifth-generation successor to 4Gtechnology, which is a decade old, andstruggling to keep pace with global broad-

band demand. The rollout of 5G promises radical-ly quicker transfers of data, heralding majorchanges to an array of products and services—from self-driving cars to remote surgery. On theentertainment front, users will be able to down-load a high-definition movie in a few minutes,compared to an hour or two

2 It's not just about speed of downloads anduploads; 5G brings much lower "latency"than the 4G. In other words, the time lag

between a command being sent by a user and adevice acting on it will be reduced. It will help sur-geons operating on patients from afar, using aug-mented reality glasses. Besides, the most visiblegain from lower latency could be with the wide-spread advent of autonomous cars. But, these willneed 5G networks to cover huge areas

3 The technology is already in wide use in South Korea and for fixedinternet lines in some US cities. It is also available in parts of Europeand Asia.

4 According tomobile com-munications

industry body,GSMA, only one infive mobile connec-tions, will be run-ning on 5G networksby 2025, globally.South Korea'sSamsung andChina’s Huawei hasalready offered 5G-enabled smart-phones; Apple is yetto launch a compati-ble model with 5Gtechnology

Scientists have predicted that India's population may peak to about 1.6billion in 2048, and decline by 32 per cent to around 1.09 billion in2100, when it is also expected to be the world's most populous country

According to researchers,there may be dramatic declinesin working age-populationsin countries, such as India andChina, which may hamper eco-nomic growth and lead to shiftsin global powers According to the study, thenumber of working-age adultsin India is projected to fall from762 million in 2017 to around578 million in 2100, comparedto that of China, where numberof workers are estimated to de-cline from 950 million in 2017 to357 million in 2100It said that India may be oneof the few major powers in Asia

to protect its working-age popu-lation over the centuryThe world could be multi-po-lar at the end of this century,with India, Nigeria, China, andthe US, emerging as the domi-nant powers, it added

The research also predictedhuge shifts in the globalage structure, with an esti-mated 2.37 billion individu-als over 65 years globally in2100, compared with 1.7 bil-lion under 20 years

THE CHALLENGESAccording to

experts, the fore-casts highlight thehuge challenges to

the economic growthof a shrinking work-

force, the high burdenon health and social

support

India's population may peakto 1.6 billion in 2048

According to the study, the world population will peak much earlierthan previously estimated. It projects the peak at 9.73 billion in2064, which is 36 years earlier than the 11 billion peak projected for2100 by the UN report World Population Prospects last year
