5G Wireless Communication and IoT: Vision, Applications, and Challenges

Abstract

This article looks at the opportunities, application and challenges of 5G Wireless Communication Technologies and Internet of Things (IoT). A brief history from 1G to 5G is presented and the limitations of 4G and the introduction of 5G as a solution for problems with latency and speed. The paper also describes the 5G IoT concept, the architecture and advanced technologies with focus on different IoT applications such as smart agriculture and smart city. When speaking of aspects such as energy consumption, privacy and security concerns, as well as trade-offs strategies, it underlines how important collaboration is to achieve the benefits that the 5G IoT will bring. The paper itself provides a roadmap for next studies with a purpose of advancing development of the integrated, safe, and efficient wireless. As 5G Wireless Communication and IoT progresses the expectation is that it will enhance and revolutionalize several domains that will offer a scalable connectivity that is faster and more reliable. This join venture is believed to open new value adding opportunities for application in smart city, automobile, medical, industrial, robotic and so on several other fields. The term 5G IoT has also been used with the intention of establishing connections of several devices, very low latency and high degree of data rate for real time analysis and decision making.
