Mobile technology, including smartphone applications and social networks, enables digital, instant, quick, and low-cost access to data of any type, including usage of products and services. Most car sharing services operate via dedicated apps whereby users can gain immediate information about the location and conditions of vehicles (fuel level, overall state of the car, etc.). These apps are extremely user-friendly and easy to use, thus further favouring the diffusion of car sharing. Mobile technology can also provide customers with immediate and easy feedback systems to increase trust in online marketplaces for used goods. One such platform is Stuffstr, a mobile application that allows registered users to give their unwanted items a second life through recycling, renting, or donating.
5G-Enabled UAV Communications

5G is a wireless mobile technology that can handle very high data rates for heterogeneous, ultradense networks. It can achieve much lower routing latency and higher end-to-end transmission reliability than LTE and 4G systems. Therefore, 5G is expected to provide the inherent support for V2V/V2I communication scenarios [11–13]. Encompassing its usage to support the UAV network's quality-of-service (QoS) requirements will open new markets for various service providers.

Mobile technology (Mobile Tech) is mainly composed of mobile applications and mobile devices which provide real-time communication service, data transmission, and sharing (Eng, 2006; Torres et al., 2012). Mobile Tech provides more flexibility for the completion of information-dependent tasks, thus reducing the physical limitation of working places and people (Andriessen & Vartiainen, 2006).

5G is the latest mobile technology that brings greater speed, capacity, and functionality to mobile services, opening new opportunities for consumers, businesses, and public services. Currently, 5G is reusing the spectrum that has previously been used to deliver services such as TV broadcasting and wireless broadband. The physical layer of 5G uses orthogonal frequency-division multiplexing (OFDM) with a typical cell radius of up to 5 miles [5]. 5G like its predecessor, i.e. 4G-LTE, offers wireless and fixed access services and can expand broadband services with mobility to areas, where today no fixed broadband access is feasible because of excessive cost [6]. Moreover, it includes attributes of frequency reuse and flexible bandwidth scalability. Both 5G and 4G-LTE base stations require a lot of energy to transmit signals over 5 km. The path-loss of 5G at 3.5 GHz between a base station (BS) antenna of the height of 30 m and subscriber’s handset height of 2 m is ∼165 dB for the transmission around 4900 m; in 4G-LTE systems, this figure is ∼158 dB [7]. This means a cost-effective solution is needed to overcome transmission costs and signal impairment. RFoF precludes the deficiencies inherent in 5G with the potential to increase the bandwidth and data rate, and to improve the spectral efficiency, thus, raising the broadband, speed between users and between users and BS.
Markov Chain-based Mobility Prediction and Relay-node Selection for QoS Provisioned Routing in Opportunistic Wireless Network

An underwater acoustic sensor network was created by Zhang et al. [22], and an asynchronous localization method based on mobility has been created (UASNs). Instead of using a traditional sensor network, a hybrid architecture with autonomous underwater vehicles, and active, and passive sense nodes were created with autonomous underwater vehicles acting as positioning nodes for sensor nodes. Wang et al. [23] have created a mobile service provisioning architecture for mobile devices to provide efficient mobility prediction. Mobile technology has enabled mobile systems to carry out tasks previously handled by personal computers and to offer services to other people.
Mobile Technology and Business Process Performance: The Mediating Role of Collaborative Supply–Chain Capabilities

Mobile technology (MobileTech) refers to mobile apps and devices that enable real-time services, efficient distribution, and logistics management (Eng, 2006), by harnessing communication (e.g., Internet, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth), data sharing, integration, navigation, and scanning abilities (Torres, Haesevoets, & Holvoet, 2013). With the spiraling growth in the number of purchased mobile devices every year, MobileTech is expected to play a vital role in modern supply chains (Car, Pilepić, & Šimunić, 2014).
