Researchers at Ericsson have been working on technologies to help shape 5G in the coming years, with perhaps one of the most exciting advancements being 'Multipoint Connectivity with Distributed MIMO' which the company demonstrated late last month.
The technology allows devices to ping multiple towers and maintain more than one datastream at a time for enhanced speed and reliability. In early tests, Ericsson's researchers were able to achieve impressive speeds of up to 10 Gbps with low levels of latency.

At the same time as the aforementioned enhancements, the technology is expected to use a lot less energy than the current LTE standard. As the Internet of Things becomes more popular, networks will have to be able to support more devices than ever and ensure energy consumption can be kept to an absolute minimum.
