Executive Summary:
The aim of the paper is to describe 5G Internet technology and discuss about the
implementation of 5G in the field of electronics industry. The paper gives a clear idea about
5G and electronics industry. Besides this all the ways of implementation of the technology
are discussed which will help in changing the industry (Ding et al. 2017). The impact of the
technology on the industry is also discussed along with all the factors that will lead the
impact. The paper also clarifies that one of the impact discussed is ethical for the industry. A
changed process in the industry is also discussed in the paper which occurs due to the impact
of the technology in the industry. After all the mentioned discussion the paper gives a
conclusion about the implication of the technology in the industry.

3THE POTENTIAL IMPACT OF 5G INTERNET ON THE ELECTRONICS INDUSTRY
A. Introduction
In the paper it is discussed about the implication 5G in manufacturing industry. 5G
illustrates fifth generation network connection which defines a wireless connection in the
cellular technology. In 5G the data are transmitted in the wireless connection of broadband.
In the electronics industry the technology is implemented and all the impacts due to this
technology is also discussed in the paper. The implementation helps in creating an
environment in the electronics industry that is more technically advanced. Huge number of
data can be transmitted very easily through this network. Four different factors related to this
technology in the industry are discussed with all their ethical nature. The report will give a
conclusion about the implementation of 5G in the industry.
B. Part 1: Research
a) Technology: 5G
5G illustrates the fifth-generation wireless connection which is also known as the newest
iteration for the cellular technology. In case of 5G the data are transmitted in a wireless
connection of broadband where the rate of travel of data is very high which is up to 20Gbps.
This even exceed the speed of the wire line network and it also exceeds over the latency (Ge
et al. 2016). 5G also increases the data amount which can be transmitted through the wireless
system as 5G have more availability of bandwidth and a technology of advanced antenna.
b) Industry: Electronic industry
The industry of electronics is also known as the consumer electronics. This is the industry
that came in the 20th century and now this is the industry which worth huge amount of money
(Dai et al. 2015). The contemporary society also use all type of electronic devices that are
made of automated and semi-automated industries. Here the products are assembled with
circuits that are integrated. The size of this industry is huge whereas the use of toxic materials

are also high by the industry. They also face various difficulties in recycling the products as
well.
C. Part 2: Brainstorming
a) Enhanced Mobile Broadband (EMBB)
5G is the technology which will create an impact on the consumers. This is the type of
broadband that have faster connection and the it also extends the cellular coverage. EMBB
also provides support for the huge number of devices and huge number of data in the areas
where the population is high and it also helps to enable the application of high bandwidth.
EMBB mainly focus on the speed and the content (Palattella et al. 2016). The dynamic
configuration of the network is more enhanced here and the speed is also very high. This also
provides various functions in case of the digital signage and helps to provide better imaging
in stadiums and restaurants with faster updates. The connectivity in case of the mobile
application will also increase because it refresh faster and the connection is also very fast.
b) Massive IoT (MIoT)
Society is getting connected more widely and for this case more power is also required. To
connect the cities, utilise the energy, agriculture and in transportation 5G provides a better
support in application of MIoT. This also helps to increase the scale of computing and the
speed of computing also increases. It helps to provide a connection between machine-to-
machine and also by consuming less amount of power (Gamage, Rajatheva and Latva-Aho
2017). It helps to increase the intelligence of the machines in the areas, also provides smart
harvesting in terms of agriculture. The transportation facility also increases in the smart cities
with the help of this technology factor. It helps to expand the use of energy in various
markets and helps to integrate stations of smart charging which benefits the electronic
vehicles.

c) Ultra-Reliable Low Latency Connectivity (URLLC)
This is considered as the technology factor that provides messaging facility which is more
secured. This is an important factor for the autonomous vehicles and other operations that are
equipped remotely (Popovski et al. 2018). Here the factories can use the facility of cloud
computing and the facility of network slicing which have cellular base that is of low power.
This is the technology factor that also enables the surgeons to use the facility of remote
robotics that helps to operate the appliances of surgery and also conducts a conversations that
is also accessed remotely. URLLC with the partnership of 5G creates a network which is
known as the smart 5G.
D. Part 3: Regulation and ethics
a) Technology impact: EMBB
In case of EMBB the network of 5G provides a network that is faster. This is the feature of
5G which have various impacts in manufacturing plant.
 EMBB helps to provide a wireless connection which is faster.
 EMBB also allows more number of devices along with huge amount of data in the
location that are of denser population.
 It helps to enable more functions in case to display the digital signage.
 There are numerous number of industries that needs huge amount of data, this is
the technology factor that helps to use this huge amount of data and helps to
connect the operator and the machines to a better outcome.
E. Part 4: Disruption
a) Efficient manufacture
The use of 5G along with one of the advanced factor which is known as Enhances Mobile
Broadband (EMBB) helps to use huge amount of data with faster wireless connection. In the

field of electronic industry this have lots of efficient advantages (Mahmood et al. 2016). As
the use of this technology factor will enhance the use of data with less consumption of energy
in the industry. Beside to this it is also prevents from huge amount of time consumption. The
electronic industries can use this facility to connect a huge connection with faster speed of
wireless data transfer. It also prevents the noise present in the environment and enhance the
quality of the data transfer. Thus due to this factor it provides a better efficiency in the
electronic industry.
F. Conclusion
The paper concludes that with the use of 5G technology in the electronic industry will
have various advantages regarding the faster wireless connection in the industry (Ding et al.
2017). The industry will use the impacts of the technology as mentioned in the paper to
produce better connection of network. The impacts will help in providing a better network of
5G and to rectify any mistakes in the connection. The technology will also provide various
ethical advantage in the industry. Thus the work environment, time consumption,
expenditure, efficient data transfer everything will be better. The paper gives a clear structure
about electronic industry and the technology.
