        The Chinese City of Yinchuan, population 2 million, situated in northwest of the country, offers a glimpse of what smart city might look like in the next decade. Smart waste bins let the local rubbish company know when they need emptying and air and water monitors alert the authorities as to any pollution hazards in real time.
        Any data that is collected is centralized, and as a result, the city’s 432 government authority processes have been whittled down to a single service. This has boosted government efficiency considerably, cutting the number of required staff from 600 to 60 whilst reducing approval processes for things like driving license applications.

         

        5G is expected to provide the high speed, responsive, and stable mobile network that can handle vast amounts of data. This will include support for Massive Machine Type Communications (MMTC) to enable machines to communicate with one another on a large scale with minimal human input.
        International Telecommunications Union (ITU) has divided 5G network services into three categories:
        1.Enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB) for
        2. Ultra-Reliable Low-Latency Communications (URLLC), Services for latency sensitive devices for applications like factory automation, autonomous driving, and remote surgery.
        These applications require sub-millisecond latency with error rates that are lower than 1 packet loss in 10⁶ packets.
        3. Massive Machine Type Communications (MMTC)
        • The main challenge in mMTC is scalable and efficient connectivity for a massive number of devices sending very short packets, which is not done adequately in cellular systems designed for humantype communications. Furthermore, mMTC solutions need to enable wide area coverage and deep indoor penetration while having low cost and being enery efficient
