Communication engineering has moved from voice communication (telephony) to data communication (voice, image, video, text, etc) and technology has moved from 1G to 5G and above. High-end Radio Access Networks (RAN) like GSMRAN, UTRAN, 5GRAN, etc have evolved to match the protocols and standards of these new-age technologies. Upgraded data centres with new communication capabilities have become a necessary infrastructure component of roads, railways, ports, electrical transmission lines, water supply lines and so on. Several devices and centres are being integrated into new generation communication networks to include elements like robots, drones, cars, education and health to make them IoT-ready. In the nextIn next 5 years the global communication network market is going to increase from 1.5 trillion dollars to around 1.55 trillion dollars, thereby generating huge requirements of trained manpower in communication engineering.
