The Internet of Things (IoT) has been developing rapidly in recent years because of its integration of various technologies and its ability to empower various industries. The AIoT Industry Panorama 2022 Report points out that after more than ten years of technology, product development and continuous demand, the AIoT industry has completed the accumulation phase and entered the growth period. Some industry professionals believe that the overall market potential value of the Internet of Things is over ten trillion yuan, and the potential for industry-driven applications is huge.
5G drives IoT boom
With 4G reaching its peak and 5G continuing to gain momentum, 5G is the key for opening up the scale of IoT. It is predicted that by 2025, the number of IoT connections will exceed 5.3 billion, of which 5G will contribute up to 73%. 5G’s contribution to the development of the IoT industry will be irreplaceable. 5G network capabilities enhance data diversification, high-speed processing, and add up value, which can improve public transportation, logistics, emergency services, environmental protection, and e-government for urban governance.

Recent reports in the Vietnamese press indicate that state-owned operator MobiFone has successfully piloted a 5G mobile network in four Vietnamese cities.
The trials, in Ho Chi Minh City, Hanoi, Da Nang and Hai Phong, achieved download speeds of approximately 2Gbps, according to a MobiFone spokesman.
5G is expected to have an impact on many industries, from manufacturing to healthcare.
It will enable the creation of a connected infrastructure, such as smart electrical grids that will be able to monitor and analyse energy consumption, smart streetlights with gunshot detectors to improve police threat response, and connected traffic lights across the city to facilitate a seamless flow of traffic. 5G is a key element in making smart cities a reality and, in the shorter term, it will transform the way we travel around cities.

The format of the next-generation cellular networks, which is commonly known as 5G, is considered by a vast majority of experts as one of the “key technologies in the decades to come.” It is seen as a major element in ensuring the leading positions of a country at a new stage of the race for the most favorable national development status. What are the political features of this phase of technology rivalry?
The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) plans to approve the final version of the 5G standard by early next year. However, experts throughout the globe have been developing the “general principles and properties” of the fifth-generation cellular communication technologies for more than five years. The current fourth-generation technology guarantees maximum data transfer rate at about 150 Mbit/s. 5G promises speeds of more than 1 Gbit / s. By the middle of this year, “China, South Korea, Japan, and most EU countries had chosen the frequency spectrum that will be used in fifth-generation networks.” A heated debate has been under way in the United States, which has already held several frequency auctions for 5G .According to Deputy Prime Minister Maxim Akimov, who oversees the development of digital technologies in the Russian Federation, the launch of 5G is “a matter of survival if we do not want to lose technological leadership”.

A recent report explores the utility of radio frequency-transparent pultruded composite materials for integrating 5G mobile networks into urban infrastructure.
Transparency to radio frequency (RF) signals is reported to be an emerging factor in favor of composites adoption in urban infrastructure, according to a recently released industry report from the European Pultrusion Technology Association (EPTA, Frankfurt, Germany). The report, “An expanded role for pultruded composites in 5G cities,” outlines how the rollout of 5G mobile networks in cities will drive increased adoption of composite materials in urban infrastructure.
