ks was provided by LTE support for the iPhone during Q4 2012. It is expected that 5G launches and device availability will occur more rapidly than in LTE, as also can be seen from the number of 5G devices released already during 2019 by several device vendors as well as multiple chipset providers. Therefore, it is important to get ready for 5G (see Figure 1.9).

Figure 1.10 illustrates example use cases and the corresponding requirements. Video experience can be enhanced with 5G's higher data rate to support 360° viewing, especially in mass events, where 5G provides substantially higher capacity. Virtual reality and augmented reality, with gaming and other use cases, can enhance user experience. Cloud gaming and esports experience can be improved by lower latency and higher data rates. One use case can be in-vehicle entertainment, allowing the user to enjoy high data rates and high-quality video while moving. 5G use cases extend far beyond consumer applications. Many industrial applications are enabled by high data rate, low latency, and extreme reliability, for example, industry automation with low latency robot control, remote control of machinery, and traffic control, including support for autonomous driving. 5G brings new capabilities also to public safety networks, agriculture automation, health care monitoring, and fixed wireless access to homes and small enterprises.
