This paper investigates the prospects for the development of 5G wireless technologies in Ukraine within the context of post-war reconstruction and the digital transformation of the economy. The article analyzes the prerequisites for deploying next-generation networks, namely: the rapid development of related technologies, the exponential growth in the number of users and connected devices, and the significant increase in data traffic. The main application areas of 5G technologies are considered.
The paper systematizes the recommendations developed by the International Telecommunication Union (ITU) aimed at fulfilling the requirements for primary 5G use cases, highlighting key scenarios for utilizing 5G in the development of software applications and services. The current state of the telecommunications market as of 2026 is reviewed, including the results of the initial pilot launches in the country's largest cities and key development vectors.
The study substantiates the role of 5G wireless technologies as a foundational infrastructure for implementing innovative services that require ultra-reliable low-latency communication and a high density of connections.
