B5G Applications and Emerging Services in Smart IoT Environments

So far, the communication standard development requires specific parameters to achieve the requests of the desired application, most frequently, the connection speed rate. On the other hand, the term Beyond the Fifth Generation (B5G) symbolizes certain specifications required to succeed the future-proof of the Fifth Generation (5G), i.e., the predicted high-level parameters, such as Ultra-reliable low-latency communications, massive machine-type communications, and improved mobile broadband, which are essential for the expected high-level future applications; consequently, 5G wireless (cellular) networks must be reconsidered precisely and in-depth to cope with the applications’ required high-level standard parameters in B5G. Therefore, it is crucial to develop novel wireless access configurations and technologies that utilize additional spectrum. However, this alone is not sufficient for now. Incorporating technologies such as software-defined networking, cloud computing, machine learning, 3D networking, and network function virtualization into B5G networks is imperative due to raised concerns regarding decentralization, transparency, interoperability, privacy, and security. This page provides a comprehensive overview of B5G’s design, functionality, and security, as well as its relationship to cloud computing. Furthermore, the proposed study examines the techniques employed for data transmission in B5G applications, such as V2V, D2D, and M2M transmissions. Lastly, the proposed study focuses on essential technology-based software services, such as healthcare, Smart Grid, tourism, and agricultural services. These services use the advantages of B5G communication networks and cloud computing. So, the proposed work collects all the necessary information for researches and developers in one article, supported by the most up-to-date references.
