Abstract

This chapter looks at the features in the first phase of fifth generation (5G) that supports the vertical industry. Moving onto future phases of 5G, Third Generation Partnership Project and the cellular industry has invited and offered to work with all vertical industries to define additional requirements for future 5G releases. One interesting vertical industry, for example, is professional audio production which requires strict synchronization of devices to function. The chapter discusses the significance of network slicing for the support of the vertical industry services. It examines a number of other issues that impact the vertical services such as virtual network function placement, multi-access edge computing, and artificial intelligence. The chapter further presents an overview of the key concepts discussed in the subsequent chapters of this book. The book examines the impact of 5G cellular communications on the various vertical industries.
