Abstract

Nowadays, our society can be considered as a “connected society” thanks to a heterogeneous network and the growth of mobile technologies. This growth has meant new devices are now supporting Internet of Things (IoT) architecture. Consequently, a new look at the current design of wireless communication systems is needed. Smart mobility concerns the massive movement of people and requires a complex infra-structure that produces a lot of data, creating new interesting challenges in terms of network management and data processing. In this paper, we address classic generations of mobile technology until the latest 5G implementation and its alternatives. This analysis is contextualized for the problem of smart mobility services and people-centric services for the internet of things that have a wide range of application scenarios within smart cities.
