“…Role of 5G: 5G services provide better indoor connectivity with small cell Next-generation Base Stations (gNB) using mmWave frequencies, leading to assured connectivity anytime anywhere. Real time online teaching needs low latency HD/4K video streaming which is provided by URLLC and eMBB services in 5G [20]. The AR and VR based educational content can be cached at 5G MEC servers enabling students to stream the contents with low latency.…”

The COVID-19 pandemic has affected the world in an unexpected manner. The human race is battling against the pandemic while schools, universities, industries, hospitals and governments are seeking new methods and technologies to seamlessly continue their usual operations. In response, this paper presents how 5G and IoT (Internet of Things) related technologies can be efficiently utilized and developed to fight against the COVID-19 pandemic. Several use-cases on how 5G and IoT can be enablers to provide innovative solutions in the areas of telehealth, contact tracing, education, retail and supply chains, e-government/ remote office/ information sharing, smart manufacturing and factory automation, e-tourism and entertainment are presented along with their technical requirements and challenges. It is envisaged that the proposed solutions will be instrumental to facilitate the usual lifestyle, work and other dayto-day activities of humans in the post-pandemic world.

5G is the fifth-generation cellular network satisfying the requirements IMT-2020 (International Mobile Telecommunications-2020) of the International Telecommunication Union. Mobile network operators started using it worldwide in 2019. Generally, 5G achieves exceptionally high values of performance parameters of access and transmission. The application of edge servers facilitated the implementation of such requirements of 5G, which resulted in 5G MEC (Multi-access Edge Computing) technology. Moreover, to optimize services for specific business applications, the concept of 5G vertical industries has been proposed. In this paper, we study how the application of the MEC technology affects the functioning of 5G MEC-based services. We consider twelve representative vertical industries of 5G MEC by presenting their essential characteristics, threats, vulnerabilities, and known attacks. Next, we analyze their functional properties, give efficiency patterns and identify the effect of applying the MEC technology in 5G on the resultant network's quality parameters to identify the expected security requirements. Finally, we identify the impact of classified threats on the 5G empowered vertical industries and identify the most sensitive cases to focus on their protection against network attacks in the first place.

“…The studies presented above give essential guidance for designing an effective blended learning environment [2,3], over 5G [3][4][5] and IoT technologies [3,4]. The implemented solutions in [3][4][5] are described as based on a top-down approach. Accordingly, we believe that their proposed designs are more generic to the supported communication network and thus; they risk not to produce fully optimised products for the 5G network as envisioned in [1].…”

The next generation of mobile networks, widely known as 5G, was designed to respond to the next 10 years’ communication challenges. 5G will be an essential structure on which all types of electronic communications will rely. Built on the emerging 5G technology, we developed a vertical solution for blended learning environments within a Portuguese national project scope. The project aims to propose an integrated demonstration of a set of products capable of being part and providing services in the future 5G networks framework. To this end, we adopted a bottom-up approach to design and develop a product named 5GOpenclasses, where we leveraged FIWARE middleware to manage all entities. This paper presents the architecture, technological platform, associated data structures, and end-user applications of 5GOpenclasses. We also present the design of innovative location-based service for blended learning environments. This paper is the first step of the proposed product towards its quantitative evaluation when running Over-the-Top on both 4G and 5G networks. Although successful unit tests were carried out in what concerns the functional outcome, the integration tests for quantitative results depend on the availability of other project components.
