Areas of 5G application

Key abilities of the 5G mobile communication technology include connection at the speed of lightning, huge capacity, network intelligence and almost real-time cooperation with other technologies. What will 5G make possible already in the short and medium term in the five key areas listed below in addition to a sharp improvement in the abilities of our mobile phones?

5G in transportation

5G will open up new dimensions in traffic management: the availability of traffic data generated in 5G networks will allow the development of efficient transportation, huge reduction in accidents, traffic congestion mitigation and, hence, reduction in harmful emission.

Furthermore, high-speed on-board Internet access as a handy convenience will enable passengers to watch 360° 4K/8K resolution media content on their journeys.

5G in healthcare

Furnishing traditional medical devices with sensors and connecting them to the 5G network will lead to remote health care provision. Connecting portable devices to the network will enable health care workers to perform the remote monitoring of patients.
This technology makes remote diagnostics, remote treatment and even remote surgery possible. Once measuring equipment has measured vital signs (ECG, pulse rate, blood pressure, sugar level and body temperature), based on the forwarded data, automated or semi-automated feedback can be provided, which can be life-saving in emergencies. Ambulances functioning as mobile hospitals will be able to perform remote interventions along the way.

5G in public security and emergency management

When natural disasters strike, fast dissemination of information, the optimisation of energy consumption, the use of batteries and aid organisations’ access to high resolution real-time live videos of the locations hit by the disasters can be of vital importance. The availability of remote-controlled devices will enable aid organisations to start rescue operations and damage mitigation immediately.

5G in industry and agriculture

Thanks to digitalised networked machines, production lines and factories, 5G will also provide revolutionary solutions in industrial production. Thanks to wireless production elements, it will only take a few hours to enable such factories to switch to a new type of production, as a result of which customised mass production will become reality. 5G will contribute to the improved reliability and efficiency of public utilities and electricity networks.
Sensors connected to 5G networks in agriculture will improve the efficiency of nutrient supply, irrigation and pest management, which, in turn, will result in healthier food.

5G in sports and entertainment

Spectator experience will be enhanced at sports, concert and community event venues (through services like the availability of 360-degree cameras and in-seat delivery of food and drink) and in the home (streaming plus AR (augmented reality) / VR (virtual reality) experience). The media and entertainment industry will provide unique experiences through customised broadcasting and media content.
