Keywords:
5G Networks, Industrial Automation, IIoT, Predictive MaintenanceAbstract
The fifth-generation mobile network (5G) represents a paradigm shift in connectivity, offering ultra-low latency, high reliability, and enhanced data rates that are critical to industrial automation. This paper explores the role of 5G in transforming industrial operations, focusing on smart manufacturing, real-time process control, predictive maintenance, and the integration of cyber-physical systems. Through empirical case studies and simulation-based performance analyses, the article examines how 5G facilitates the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT), robotics, and AI-based decision-making. The paper also discusses deployment challenges in Pakistan's industrial sector and offers recommendations for policy support and infrastructure investment.
