Abstract

This paper presents a revolutionary research initiative focused on improving municipal fleet management in smart cities by leveraging the power of 5G technology. Through adopting 5G, the municipality gains access to real-time communication, precise vehicle tracking, optimized route planning, and improved operational efficiency. Delving into the realm of 5G technology, the study examines its multiple applications in fleet management, including real-time monitoring and predictive maintenance strategies. The initial findings establish a robust foundation, laying the groundwork for forthcoming initiatives aimed at enhancing municipal fleet operations in smart cities through the seamless integration of 5G connectivity. Our objective is to amplify the impact of our work, making a substantial contribution to the continuous evolution of smart city infrastructures. Subsequent research endeavors will delve even deeper into the expansive potential of 5G, exploring its applications in fleet optimization, intelligent transportation systems, and innovative solutions for sustainable mobility.
