In this paper, we present and analyze 5G system and IEEE time-sensitive networking(TSN) and propose a novel mobility management scheme for time sensitive communications in 5G-TSN to support ultra-low latency networks. Time-sensitive networking(TSN) has a promising future in the Industrial Automation and Industrial Internet of Things(IIoT), as a key technology that is able to provide low-latency, high-reliable and deterministic communications over the Ethernet. When a TSN capable UE moves the TSN service coverage from the non-TSN service coverage, the UE cannot get the TSN service promptly because the related mobility management is not performed appropriately. For the mobility situation with the TSN service coverage, the proposed scheme reports TSN capability to the network and triggers the initial registration in order to be provided the TSN service immediately and ultra-low latency communications compared to existing schemes in 5G mobile networks.

This study aims to determine how agricultural drones are operated for flight tests using a 5G communication in order to carry out a mission such as sensing agricultural crop healthy status with special cameras. Drones were installed with a multi-spectral and IR camera to capture images of crop status in separate altitudes with different speeds. A multi-spectral camera can capture crop image data using five different particular wavelengths with a built-in GPS so that captured images with synchronized time could provide better accuracy of position and altitude during the flight time. Captured thermal videos are then sent to a ground server to be analyzed via 5G communication. Thus, combining two cameras can result in better visualization of vegetation areas. The flight test verified how agricultural drones equipped with special cameras could collect image data in vegetation areas.

As a next-generation communication technology, 5G networks are capable of handling large amounts of traffic based on higher speeds, shorter communication delays, and higher connectivity compared to 4G networks. In this 5G network environment, base stations are installed all over the city at high density due to their characteristics, and are connected to user terminals to provide services. Therefore, if the base station is damaged by a malicious attacker, it is expected to cause great damage to users and society as a whole. So the need for secure communication equipment such as 5G base stations has emerged. Therefore, in this paper, we propose the security functional requirements derived using threat modeling, a systematic methodology for 5G base stations, and the security assurance requirements at the level that can cope with the backdoor issues. The security requirements proposed in this paper can be used for base station design and development to construct a secure network environment as a security evaluation standard for 5G base stations.

This study derived implications regarding competition policy to establish a reasonable spectrum allocation draft of a 3.7 GHz spectrum band by indepth analysis of 5G spectrum auctions. The following general features were identified by examining auctions of three countries, including the United States, United Kingdom, and Denmark, were completed in 2021. First, securing the minimum bandwidth that is essential for service competition was guaranteed by applying the spectrum cap. Second, a continuous spectrum band was allocated to all mobile network operators. Third, certain requirements were implemented to encourage the expansion of 5G service coverage. The spectrum cap that was implemented in Korea during the most recent spectrum auction was ineffective regarding competition policy. Additionally, it is anticipated that the allocation of 3.7-4.0 GHz spectrum will considerably impact market competition because the continuity of spectrum band is different among mobile service operators. Therefore, it is time to discuss promoting the 5G service competition in Korea by revising related laws.

The world's first 5G commercial service started in Korea in April 2019. This makes us proud of our status as an ICT powerhouse, and of the domestic optical network industry ecosystem that has served as a lever to make this significant leap forward in technological and industrial competitiveness. Above all, Japan's trade regulations on core parts and the COVID-19 pandemic have led to new changes across cultures, societies, and economies, and 5G networks have become important. The relevant technology for core material parts is a major concern not only of a few industries, but an entire section of society in terms of national competitiveness. In this article, we discuss the role of industries through the analysis of prospects of optical component technology with regard to the changes in the economic and social paradigm caused by the COVID-19 pandemic and Japan's export regulations.

5G goes beyond people to serve indoor and outdoor companies and industries, as well as campuses such as halls, industrial complexes, educational institutions, stadiums, dense urban areas, rural areas, and government institutions. Therefore, a new approach to small cells is needed. Accordingly, 3GPP and Small Cell Forum are researching 5G small cell architecture; 3GPP, Small Cell Forum, and 5G Alliance for Connected Industries and Automation are also researching private networks tailored to meet the specific requirements of various companies and local governments. In particular, in the UK, a small cell-based technology is required for realizing the Joint Operator Technical Specifications-Neutral Host In-Building specification to cost-effectively secure indoor coverage. Further, the research on the SON(Self-Organizing Network) technology for small cells in 5G, where commercialization has begun, is required. The 5G-based small cell structure, private network, and Neutral Host In-Building and SON reviewed in this study are at the initial research stages; therefore, additional research is needed to secure the competitiveness of the small cell technology in 5G and Beyond 5G.

At a time when the 5G era is advancing beyond commercialization, places that used to handle simple logistics warehouse tasks are transforming into smart logistics warehouses by combining IT convergence technology and platforms. Smart logistics warehouses can accurately predict demand and inventory of products with AI, deep learning, and robot technologies based on 5G, and provide information on warehousing and warehousing status in real time. As the e-commerce market grows, the smart logistics sector is also growing rapidly. This paper implements a smart logistics warehouse system and studies and proposes a method of establishing a fast and accurate logistics system by utilizing 5G-based Logistics Automation Robot.
