connectivity and connectivity ranges consistent with the type of device .
New ways to access the mobile network
In turn , the networks will be deployed beyond the main towers or macro-towers , which will now have a new underlying layer to reliably reach new areas and scenarios as well as offering the best coverage available for users and IoT devices connected to the network .
Thus , under the macro-towers , the towers will be supported on the terraces of some buildings and microcells will be added to connect devices in specific areas such as parks , busy buildings or factories , among others ; also cells that allow the Internet to be distributed via Wi-Fi in suburbs , and distributed antenna systems for both indoor ( IDAS ) or outdoor ( ODAS ), which will allow the connectivity of large populations , such as shopping centers or stadiums .
Network deployments are expected to consist of multiple layers : traditional macrocell towers provide a blanket of coverage , while under this umbrella , a combination of other technologies is deployed to increase network capacity , particularly in dense urban areas .

These deployments will make significant advances in connectivity , including speeds between 10 and 100 times higher than today , latencies between five and 10 times lower , and three times in terms of spectrum efficiency , plus the capacity to achieve 300 times , or more connections per cell , adding lower energy consumption and more efficient costs .
The new cells will segment the spectrum to achieve better coverage . And what will we do with these benefits ? The user will feel the impact of 5G in an advance in the amount of speed and data , which will increase , for instance , the use of augmented and virtual reality solutions for different scenarios in education , work and entertainment .
Likewise , the possibilities of deploying connected devices to the smart home will increase and by extrapolating this capacity , the number of solutions for Smart Cities will rise . By supporting higher volumes of connected devices , the possibility of adding autonomous devices in the network , such as vehicles , service robots and drones , among others , will also be expanded .
Paradigm shift ?
The emergence of new layers , provided by smaller , more specific , and densified cells , will also affect the offer of American Tower , which will now have new business models in rural areas , suburban sectors , and densely populated cities , with next-generation devices , such as Edge Computing , autonomous vehicles , robots , AR / VR , among others . p
