How does 5G benefit telemedicine?

<span data-sheets-root="1" data-sheets-value="{"1":2,"2":"5G is a sought-after technology in telemedicine because it has two properties that support remote surgery. The first is low latency, which shortens the communication time between a surgeon in one part of the world, and a patient in another. The second capability is network slicing, which allows network operators to customize networks for a single purpose or user, reducing the potential for interference and lag.

How does 5G work?

5G will use ‘massive’ MIMO (multiple input, multiple output) antennas that have very large numbers of antenna elements or connections to send and receive more data simultaneously. The benefit to users is that more people can simultaneously connect to the network and maintain high throughput.
