While our cellular data today operates mostly on 4G LTE, Korea Telecom Corporation is working with Intel to create what could be the next generation of telecommunications — and after a successful connection, it appears 5G will make its debut at the Winter Olympics in PyeongChang in February.
KT Corporation announced last month that it was successful in interconnecting 5G demo networks to Samsung Electronics 5G terminals at the main Olympic stadium and other venues for the upcoming Games, according to Korea Bizwire. Intel also pitched in to the effort, announcing a few days later that, together with KT, it is contributing 5G technologies toward a showcase of the 5G network’s capabilities.
