5G (5th generation wireless technologies)
5G refers to 5th generation of wireless communication standards. It is envisioned as a standard for 2020 and beyond. The seminal papers on a proposed 5G standard list the following requirements: [1] [2]
  • 1000 times higher mobile data volume per area,
  • 10 to 100 times higher number of connected devices,
  • 10 to 100 times higher user data rate,
  • 10 times longer battery life for low power massive machine communications (MMC), and finally
  • 5 times reduced End-to-End latency.

Advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) – L1, L2, L2 & L4

C
Channel bonding
Channel bonding enables a devices to use of all available data communications channels concurrently. This may include multiple channels within the same data communications standard, such as IEEE 802.11 (a.k.a. Wi-Fi). Channel bonding is performed to increase reliability and throughput.

CyanogenMod
CyanogenMod was an open source operating system for mobile devices. It was based on the Android operating system. The project was halted in late 2016. See LineageOS.

PII (personally identifiable information)
PII includes any information that can be used to identify or track a person, or differentiate them from someone else. PII is a superset of SPII.

Programmatic advertising (or programmatic marketing)
Programmatic advertising uses algorithms to control media buys, and the targeting and tailoring of advertising content.
