Introduction
The article “Future of Internet of Things (IoT) in 5G Wireless Networks” by Abhiruchi
Passi etal (2018) aims to explore strategies that can be effectively used in the latest development
phase of 5G-based IoT technologies. Kevin Ashton coined the term “Internet of Things”
(IoT) to describe a system where the Internet is connected to the physical world via
ubiquitous sensors. The Internet of Things is a computing concept where in physical
objects of everyday use are connected to the internet and sensors gather data from these devices
process the data and use the information for various purposes. The sensors are small devices
that have analog input and convert that input into digital or electronic data. The sensors
consume less power and can be efficiently used for converting data gathered into such a format
so that it can be easily sent through the Internet.
Under local Processing and local Storage the data gathered from sensors is processed and is
sent for computing. The Network and Internet is used for providing the required connectivity.
The processed data is sent to cloud wherein the cloud aggregates and stores the data to generate
inferences. Internet of Things or IoT has evolved and will play a major role in our lives
in the near future. Though in the nascent stage, it conceptually means an interconnected
network consisting of physical objects, wearable s, machines, buildings, automobiles
and a variety of other types of devices that contain embedded technology to
communicate and sense or interact with their internal states or external environment.
With the advent of next generation 5G wireless technology around 2020, a wave of
globally connected digital society will-come into existence. In this paper we will
discuss about the benefits which will be provided to IoT with the onset of 5G wireless
Technology and the challenges which IoT will offer to 5G.
5G will radically change the way our world networks. It won’t be long before worldwide society
will have to adapt to the new way of technological life - across industries, markets and regions.
This new technology standard promises much more than just further developments of existing
mobile communication technologies. We have innumerable studies that are trying to quantify
and predict the material impact of Fifth Generation (5G) and the Internet of Things (IoT). 5G
IoT reaches new dimensions in all aspects.

IOT enables interaction between humans and appliances /devices by sensing or

remotely controlling these devices resulting in improved efficiency, accuracy, reduced
human efforts and maximum comfort. However, security concerns of IOT has been an
area of research in recent times, aiming at making IOT even more accurate and efficient
than it currently is.

IoT and 5G- Road Ahead

With the commencement of Cellular systems (Analog Systems) in the early Eighties,
Radio technologies recorded a fast and multi-directional progress. Digital wireless
communication systems are constantly meeting the growing requirements of society
(1G, 2G, 3G, 4G, and now 5G). Looking back, it is observed that every ten years, one
generation is progressing in the area of wireless technology. To begin with First
Generation, 1G in the early eighties, followed by second Generation 2G in early nineties,
Third Generation 3G in early twenty first century, fourth Generation 4G in 2010s and
latest being fifth Generation 5G, the wireless technology is becoming more
sophisticated and smarter.
From the time of introduction of 1G in 1982, a novel generation of wireless
communication is appearing around every decade. The primitive 1G service was
succeeded by 2G, which commenced text messaging features in 1992. Thereafter, 3G
networks appeared in 2001, which allowed phones to access the Internet. Thereafter, in
2012, 4G emerged, which added video streaming features. Now, 5G is being developed
with gigabit speeds. The first 5G networks are likely to be unveiled in 2020.
5th\Generation wireless Network or 5G is the impending revolution of mobile
technology. The uses and special features are much above the anticipation of a normal
person. With its super high speed, it has the capability to change the sense of cell phone
usability.

5G will enable new use cases that aren’t available today, with huge potential benefits
for the world at large, but it will also create new opportunities for those who wish to
exploit this new technology. In future, 5g could enable smart city infrastructure and

truly autonomous driving with security using contribute with IOT. 5G fixed wireless
will reshape the broadband ISP and services landscape(faster smartphones, 5G NR
technologies will reshape) and enable wireless gigabit and multi gigabit internet service
in our home and office without need of WIFI.-
When we talk about security and privacy in 5G, we can do these little things to protect
our privacy. As the need for network protection will only grow, we should ensure
security by using a VPN (Virtual private network). A VPN encrypts your traffic, so no
one can see what you do and intercept it. Users should also prefer applications offering
extensive encryption capabilities, such as end-to-end encryption and reliable algorithms.
You should also minimize the number of connected devices you use. Moreover, protect
your devices use the most up-to-date antivirus security software and make sure to tune
up its settings for maximum safety.

5G; the Technology on Which IoT Would Operate On

As indicated by Godfrey A. Akpakwu, The Internet of Things (IoT) is a promising
innovation which has a tendency to alter and associate the global world by means of
heterogeneous keen gadgets through consistent availability. The idea of the IoT has
drawn the consideration of the research community with the ultimate objective of
guaranteeing that wearable’s, sensors, smart apparatuses, clothes washers, tablets,
advanced mobile phones, keen transportation framework, and so on., and different
substances are associated with a typical interface with the capacity to speak with each
other. The test nonetheless, is the means by which the fifth generation (5G) mobile
network will meet the differing prerequisites of the IoT. 5G mobile networks are
imagined to guarantee that massive devices and new services, for example, enhanced
Mobile Broadband (eMBB), massive Machine. Type Communications (mMTC),
Critical Communications and Network Operations are effectively upheld. It is trusted
that essential prerequisites, for example, high throughput, low latency as far as
Information conveyance, high versatility to empower huge number of gadgets,
productive energy utilization system and the provision of ubiquitous connectivity for
end-clients will be effectively bolstered utilizing the 5G mobile system for the IOT.
IoT (Internet of things) is used for producing Big Data with four V’s i.e. volume,
velocity, variety and veracity. At that point, Cloud is acquired for Big Data storage and
processing. At the final stage which is the SDN. SDN is utilized to give more proficient
and adaptable systems between Cloud data transport. Out of Big Data, Cloud, and SDN,
propelled advancements like machine learning investigation, Cloud RAN and software
5G are then developed.

Based on Fig 1, 5G serves as a better gateway and transport network for IoT
applications in a way data gotten from IoT is transmitted more efficiently and
economically, IoT will then end up as one of the major source of Big Data by delivering
expansive volume, quick speed, and numerous assortments of information.
Below are some technology’s already put in place to effect this interconnection between
5G and IOT: WIFI, Bluetooth Zigbee Lora WAN and Z-Wave. The Internet of Things
is growing at a rapid rate and the applications are vast. There need to be a wireless
network that can match the growth and application of IoT. The advantages and features
of 5G are aptly suitable to support IoT in a big way. As IoT will help make our life easy
by automating the physical objects, the emergence of 5G will help IoT take a big leap.

General Critique

As discussed in the previous section, it is unlikely that one technology enabler will be
able to fit all use cases and applications. Therefore, based on several research results in
this article, different promising concepts have been identified. These technical enablers
can be categorized into three groups: core network enablers, access network enablers
and backhaul/cross-haul enablers. Network densification has a significant impact on the
improvement of coverage, throughput and spectral efficiency of wireless cellular
networks. Ultra-dense heterogeneous networks are considered one of the enablers for
5G wireless to achieve capacity increase with respect to LTE. In this section, it focus
on the challenges facing the successful deployment of UDHetNet to achieve the
expected performance. Many of the related papers also discuss the challenges of
UDHetNet. However, here it is summarized the open issues and challenges that require
further investigation.

The 5G network will have the capacity to increase download speeds by up to 20 times (from
200 Mbps (4G) to 10 Gbps (5G)) and decreasing latency (response time between
devices). These speeds will maximize the browsing experience by facilitating processes that,
although possible today, still present difficulties.

The 5G network promises the possibility of having a hyper-interconnected environment to

reach the point of having the much desired “smart cities”. The correct performance of these
new dynamics will depend on the bandwidth of 5G and the Internet of Things (IoT).It is also
expected to revolutionize areas such as medicine (remote operations, for example), and traffic
management and autonomous vehicles, as well as its implementation in the construction sector
to optimize resources and reduce risks. The transition to the 5G network will require devices
that can support it; current 4G devices do not have this capability and will become immediately
obsolete.

The implementation of the 5G network also implies a lack of immediate accessibility for
average pockets, combined with a delay in its implementation due to a lack of means for its use.
For the 5G network to function properly will require a whole ambitious investment in
infrastructure to increase bandwidth and expand coverage, and this is not cheap. This
situation will necessarily lead to delays in its implementation due to the high costs that
governments will have to cover for 5G to function properly. All of this requires optimal
data management, and this is where the most conflictive part of the advantages versus
disadvantages lies. And the fact is that, in the management of all this information, both
from companies and individuals and even governments, not only issues such as Big

Data techniques are involved in its study. Each country is currently discussing the legal
and ethical standards for the handling and use of this data, so that privacy is not affected
by all this inter-connectivity. 5G is a reality that in a short time will touch our lives like
previous technologies, and it could be better to look at it now to take advantage of its
benefits and avoid its risks.

The article could be further improved if the authors developed in greater details the
implications that However, we will not manifest this value unless we make sure this
generation of mobile networks is the most secure network we’ve ever developed
together, as a community. In the context of all this opportunity and excitement, here’s
where security becomes more challenging than ever. From 5G SIMs to Cinterion IoT
Module, IoT gateway and modem cards, Thales delivers a broad portfolio of 5G
solutions that connect and secure next-generation devices and IoT projects offering
seamless migration to emerging networks and features.

Despite the limitations of the research to protect every conversation, every session,
every data set, and to comply with increasing privacy and consumer protection laws,
we need highly intelligent software programmability, particularly for mission-critical
networks and applications. When 5G is based on increasingly automated, shared
network functions virtualization infrastructure (NFVI), we need to have a common
roadmap that can solve collective problems. At the same time, the dynamic nature of
5G makes it particularly susceptible to the same attacks that we see over typical fixed
and broadband access, including DoS and DDoS and infiltrate compromises.
