What is BRICS Innovation Base 🤔 & how it affect 5G 🙄
Why in the discussion?
 |
| BRICS Countries |
MAIN POINTS:
- To take forward 5G and Artificial Intelligence (AI) cooperation among the five countries.
- This Chinese proposal can create a new problem for India because India is the only member of the BRICS group who is trying to keep China out of the 5G system of their country.
Feedback from other BRICS countries
- Russia said it would work with China on 5G.
- This month, the Russian Foreign Minister has welcomed to work with Chinese telecom company Huawei in the field of 5G.
2. SOUTH AFRICA:- In South Africa, Chinese telecommunications firm Huawei is providing services to three of its telecom operators in the roll-out of their 5G networks.
3. BRAZIL:- Brazil has allowed participation in trials but is yet to take a final call.
- However, the Vice-President of Brazil has indicated to include Huawei in the 5G network this month. According to him, more than one-third (1/3) of the devices currently being used by Brazil's telecom service providers in Brazil's 4G system is from Huawei itself.
India's challenge:

India's challenge:
- At present, the possibility of the Indian government allowing the participation of Chinese companies in the 5G sector between India and China tension is very low.
- It is worth noting that recently, 59 Chinese mobile apps were also banned by India because of strict national regulations on Chinese investment.
- Indian intelligence assessments have also expressed concerns on the possible direct or indirect links of several Chinese companies, including Huawei, with the Chinese military.India has made clear a return to normalcy cannot be possible while tensions along the Line of Actual Control remain unresolved.

The previous generations of mobilenetworks are 1G, 2G, 3G, and 4G.
First-generation – 1G(1980):
1G delivered ANALOG VOICE
- ANALOG VOICE: Analog Voice Characteristics Analog is defined as a signal that has a continuously and smoothly varying amplitude or frequency. Human speech, and everything else you hear, is in analogue form, and early telephone systems were analogue as well.
Second-generation – 2G:
- The early 1990s: 2G introduced digital voice (e.g. CDMA- Code Division Multiple Access).
- Digital Voice will give you the same reliability, trust and familiarity of your current home phone service and it will enable new benefits and features, such as crystal clear calls and the ability to block nuisance calls at the touch of a button.
Third generation – 3G:
The early 2000s: 3G brought mobile data (e.g. CDMA2000)
- Mobile Data is the term used by many to describe the use of wireless data communications using radio waves to send and receive information. This is part of the much broader mobile technology arena. Some premium Vehicle Telematics systems incorporate vehicle tracking and mobile data as a combined solution.

Fourth-generation – 4G LTE:
- The 2010s: 4G LTE ushered in the era of mobile broadband.
- LTE is an abbreviation for Long Term Evolution.LTE is a 4G wireless communications standard developed by the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) that's designed to provide up to 10x the speeds of 3G networks for mobile devices such as smartphones, tablets, netbooks, notebooks and wireless hotspots.

ROAD AHEAD:
- India has recently joined the Global Partnership on Artificial Intelligence-GPAI as a founding member.
- It is an international and multi-stakeholder initiative to guide the responsible development of 'Artificial Intelligence-AI' based on values such as human rights, inclusion, diversity, and innovation along with economic development.
- Like 'GPAI', in the area of 5G, technological development related to 5G can be promoted with the cooperation of like-minded countries.
- In the last decade, Indian software companies have made significant progress in the field of information technology, promoting Indian companies under efforts such as 'Make-in-India' and 'Self-reliant India' given the strategic and economic interests associated with 5G.
