The most evident advantage of 5G networks over 4G(fourth-generation) is the speed of the network. However, there are also advantages relating to reduced latency – meaning faster response times as well as fast download speeds. This opens up a wealth of potential applications across industry due to improved operational efficiency. Among the applications for 5G are superfast broadband with no need for landlines, 5G mobile telecommunications, the creation of smart factories, holographic technologies, televisions, remote healthcare, and driverless cars with 5G communication as well as car-to-car communication. 4, record 1, English, - fifth%2Dgeneration%20network

The two principal means of limiting rotor power in high operational wind speeds-stall regulation and pitch regulation... Stall regulated machines require speed regulation. As wind speed increases, providing the rotor speed is held constant, flow angles over the blade sections... The blades become increasingly stalled and this limits power to acceptable levels without any additional active control. For this to work, the speed of the WT [wind turbine] rotor must be held essentially constant and this is achieved through the connection of the electric generator to the grid. 4, record 8, English, - stall%20regulation

Remote Automatic Weather Stations measure a number of atmospheric elements including temperature, relative humidity, wind speed and direction, and precipitation. The information for these elements are recorded hourly and collected at the National Interagency Fire Center in Boise. The Western Regional Climate Center receives these data near real-time and continuously updates a historical archive. RAWS sites are primarily owned and maintained by both federal and state land management agencies. Approximately 800 sites are now operational mostly in the western U.
