This paper explores the impact of adopting 5G technologies on servitization and identifies the services that can benefit most from 5G networks. The main results emerging from the research suggest that 5G can profoundly impact services supported by Augmented Reality, Cloud computing, and Cyber-physical systems, mainly concerning maintenance, workforce training, machine diagnosis and monitoring.

A framework based on deep learning and reinforcement learning for fault detection is developed. The authors can increase accuracy, overcome data imbalance, and better predict future defects by updating the reinforcement learning policy when new data is received.
