Applications of 5G technology in flexible electronics

Abstract

As an emerging field in the industry, flexible electronics not only integrates technologies in fields such as electronic circuits, materials, and flat displays, but also spans industries such as semiconductors, materials, chemicals, and printed circuit boards. Its application importance in various fields such as information, energy, healthcare, and manufacturing are increasingly prominent. The main topic of this article is the implementation of 5G technology in the flexible electronics industry. To begin with, this article presents the traits of flexible electronics. Secondly, it stated the development of 5G and introduced its characteristics. The result shows that 5G is not only an air interface technology with higher rates, larger bandwidth, and stronger capabilities, but also an intelligent network for user experience and business applications. Then, combined with 5G and flexible electronics, they are applied in three aspects: mobile antennas, intelligent equipment, and remote medicine. Finally, the current problems and future prospects in the fields of flexible electronics and 5G were summarized. Currently, it faces challenges such as signal interference and power consumption due to the unique characteristics of flexible materials. And in the future, 5G can potentially enhance the performance of flexible electronics, leading to the creation of new products and services in various industries.
