The Internet of Things (IoT) is developing rapidly and 5G supports this ambition even more. The progress of cellular and Wi-fi networks were limiting factors in IoT until 4G and now, 5G networks set to solve these problems. According to recent research, the global 5G IoT market size is set to grow $272.4 billion by 2026. This number projects the fact that 5G completely transforms the way companies develop IoT solutions, therefore 5G is a must.
Before we analyse 5G network impacts on IoT, let’s see why 5G is a game changer. 5G is the next-generation cellular network that offers up to 20 gigabytes of download speed per second. For example, a 5G capable phone can load a full-length movie or series in HD, in a matter of seconds. This easy example shows that 5G is significantly more powerful and has more capacity than 4G. The improvements of 5G are the following:
- Delivering latency is decreased to 1ms
- 5G enables more efficient signalling for IoT devices
- 10x faster throughput
- Achieving ever more bits per Hz with advanced antenna techniques
- 100x faster traffic capacity
- 100x higher network efficiency and reliability
5G is designed to support a variety of things that contribute to our daily lives, including giving us faster download speed, significantly lower latency, and higher connectivity for billions of devices. The commercial deployment and operation of 5G is used across the main connected services, such as mobile broadband, communication and massive Internet of Things. As the size of IoT grows to large scale, the impact on enterprise systems and consumers’ everyday lives also increase. Let’s the opportunities 5G provides for IoT app developers:
Greater network reliability for out of the box developments
5G not only provides increased network speed, but more reliable stable connections. Having stable network condition is extremely important for IoT developers to make sure connected devices like optical sensors, pressure sensors, accelerometers or other monitoring systems are sending and receiving the right information at the right time (it is just a matter of milliseconds). With the ability of 5G, consumers and clients can choose from a wide variety of connected IoT devices to find the perfect match for their smart city, smart home or smart manufacturing methods. Clients are always looking for the newest, most up to date developments to gain competitive advantage on the market, so It’s not question that 5G cellular network is the main supporter in the newest technology ideas.
Increased number of IoT devices supports new Smart City solutions
The phrase Smart City became a big hit in the past 5 years as cellular network developments have taken to a next level. The increase in the number of connected devices and sensors allow cities and buildings to be managed remotely and automatically. Many developments such as smart pedestrian movement help, traffic light management, street and garage parking management are available smart systems, but their improvements never stop, startups and companies are always seeking for the newest approaches. 5G developments also promoted the quality increase in Bluetooth technology, inside buildings, new Bluetooth solutions create the ability to track vehicles, people and other equipments on time.

All 5G integrations improve sustainability, smart mobility ambitions
The popularity of Smart Mobility solutions has been growing due to the enhanced concern of environmental pollution. In order to overcome these threatening issues, using electric vehicles are a great option to shorten our ecological footprint. As the number of electric vehicles is growing - and the greater demand is just continuing as you could read it in our recent mobility post -, the need for more sustainable solutions and more intelligent charging stations are already detected. 5G promotes to help this need by enabling a higher number of sensors and devices connectivity at the same time. Intelligent charging stations combined with advanced cellular networks represents a new wave for safer and more advanced environment.
Montu by Grape Solutions provides unique EV software including an admin platform and mobile app with custom modules, and integrations for specific needs. Our EV charging mobile app provides all the necessary information of the electric charging stations to ensure user decision making before driving or on route.
Enhanced remote management solutions in Industrial IoT
The high-speed connectivity and very low latency that arrived with 5G is the key for Industrial IoT devices. To take advantage of network improvements, manufacturers need to invest in building 5G-compatible devices. In many industries, technicians face with difficult to access maintenance of equipments. Just think about the energy sector, utility poles and transformers are distributed thousands of kilometres from each other, but it is needed to regularly inspect these devices to ensure smooth operations. 5G in Industrial IoT opens the possibility to inspect and identify any problem in the system under milliseconds, improving quality assurance and software function conditions at the same time. This is way 5G is a huge potential for manufacturers, nothing becomes faster than finding the bugs in the system.
Expanded test coverage for developers
Testing Internet of Things devices need a large test coverage. The commercial success of an IoT solution is mainly dependent on the successful connectivity between devices and sensors. Yet, because of network fragmentation, it was not easy to build and test an IoT that can work well across a variety of different devices, 5G is set to eliminate this problem. As a result of using 5G technology, testing devices and different configurations became faster and more efficient. 5G allows quality assurance teams to detect bugs and block those functionalities that diminish user experience.
