Key modules of the course:
1. History and Evolution of Cellular Networks

From GSM to 5G
From 1G (analog voice) to 5G (ultra-speed, low latency, massive IoT), this module explains the development of telecom and its shifting needs.
2. What is 5G?

 Core Concepts and What Makes It Different
5G is a full redesign of the network — not just a speed boost. It relies on Massive MIMO, beamforming, and supports transformative apps like autonomous cars and remote industrial control.
3. 5G Capabilities: 

Super Speeds, Low Latency, High Capacity
- Speeds up to 10 Gbps
- Latency under 1 ms (for VR and remote surgery)
- Efficient spectrum usage for high device density
4. Network Slicing:

 Boosting Performance Through Network Partitioning
Multiple virtual networks (slices) over one physical infrastructure, optimized for unique needs — gaming, banking, IoT, etc.
5. 5G Use Case Types:
- eMBB: High-speed, HD video, VR
- URLLC: Real-time, critical response (surgery, cars)
- mMTC: IoT devices with low power usage
6. Frequencies and Infrastructure:

 5G Spectrum & Network Architecture
- Low (<1 GHz): wide coverage, lower speed
- Mid (1–6 GHz): balanced
- High (mmWave): high speed, short range
Uses gNBs, 5GC, virtualization, and cloud-native structure.
7. Comparing 5G with Previous Generations
- Faster, more stable, and supports AI/cloud
- Enables smart apps and a real digital revolution
