Abstract

The combination of 5G and the Internet of Things (IoT) will revolutionize industries as well as society due to more efficient connectivity, faster speed, security or scalability up to a billion devices. This paper looks at how 5G can help in furthering IoT towards critical applications like healthcare, manufacturing and smart cities for which ultra-reliable low latency communication (URLLC) services with massive machine type communications (mMTC) are required. We look at how these features can enhance efficiency, automation, and innovation by analysing the technical aspects of 5G-IoT integration through detailed perspective on enhanced mobile broadband(eMBB), ultra-reliable low-latency communication (URLLC) as well as massive machine type communications(mMTC). Our analysis also identifies new issues, including security flaws, data privacy issues, and the high infrastructure costs necessary for widespread 5G deployment, even though 5G greatly expands the potential of IoT by enabling larger device networks and real-time operations. We also talk about the possible socioeconomic effects of this convergence and suggest future lines of inquiry to solve the problems found and make the most of 5G-enabled IoT systems.
