I. EXPLANATION OF USED METHOD
he author Godfrey Anuga selected research survey
other useful information from the field of network
and communication system to analyze how a 5G
network can fulfill the requirement of IoT and make the
advanced level of a communication system to facilitate
the world. The author of this research paper makes
analysis over how an IoT device can deal with low-level
power device and this research attract the attention of
other research community because it based on the goal
to provide IoT devices in forms of a wearable device,
sensors, smart appliances, washing machine, tablets,
smart-phones and etc..
T
The author also has a goal with this research for
describing how other entities can connect with the
common user interface so that it can have the power to
interact with each other. He already publishes this
research on different platforms for the suggestion of
different researchers. He first defines that IoT
interconnects “Things” and enables machine-to-
machine communication.
It means the process of communication where no
intervention of human would be made and this could be
possible with the support of seamless communication
medium. He also assesses the resource of Ericsson and
insight that approx 28 billion devices could be
connected through a seamless network across the
world. To effectively complete this research Godfrey
Anuga processes a method from bottom to approach.
Means the first specifies each and every requirement
and then connects this research with the 5G
communication network.
At first, he details the Internet of Things application
requirement by categorizing them in a different section.
He also proposes a design requirement about IoT, in
order to ensure LPWA technologies could be far able to
offer effective communication channel and solution for
a different scenario for massive and critical IoTs.
Godfrey Anuga also defines the basic requirement for
design including low cost of the device, low deployment
cost, better and longer battery life including all aspects
of security and privacy for the IoT applications because
the real identity of the user should be protected from
the public and could only be traceable by the legislative
authorities.
As per his finding he specifies that there is no such
solution is available till yet but there are several types of
communication technologies available for that, but all
are in operation. From different network and
communication research sources he concluded about a
different type of networks. For the long term, he
concludes communication technologies like Lora,
SigFox, and Dash7 and for short terms, he concludes
Bluetooth, ZigBee, WI-Fi and etc. Godfrey Anuga also
concluded research about 3GPP cellular solution for IoT
application as such 3G, 4G and specially 3rd generation
PP LTE network are the current network and
communication technologies that could be considered
as better connectivity option because these
technologies offer enhanced machine type
communications which minify complexity and cost
structure as well as these technologies seek less power
and offer wide network coverage..
Now the base of this research that is 5G incorporation
with IoT application for better advancement has been

addressed by the author and as per this research future
deployment with the 5G mobile network could be able
for the huge deployment of IoT application with billions
smart devices and sensor applications, globally
represent the real world. The author defines that this
type of network is more promising next-generation
technology and could be connected as heterogeneously
to fulfill new requirements like wearable things,
improved networks, scalable application and etc.
II. PERSONAL OPINION
As per my opinion, the research should be open for
all researchers to gather their idea for emerging of best
possible networks with IoT devices to facilitate the
world. It should be an open challenge for the proposal
of most effective control and security management to
the IoT network and applications. From my side, it is
recommended that develop a CACC scheme means a
context-aware congestion control for a UDP based
network. This network should be a multi-objective
application with the extensive support of advanced 5G
networks.
