Abstract

Nanotechnology has evolved into one of the most remarkable topics and active research areas in many sectors, including chemical engineering, electronics, medicine, and sciences. Nanotechnology has the potential as the next industrial revolution in contemporary science to deliver effective solutions for powerefficient computation, sensing, and human-machine interface in telecommunication engineering. With the increasing adoption of mobile gadgets connected with 3G, 4G, and 5G services during the Covid-19 crisis, the telecommunication industry had a tough growth income in many countries. By 2025 the connection of fixed broadband is expected in hundreds of millions. The way nanotechnology impacted the telecommunications industry can become the next industrial revolution since higher computing power is needed to offer higher data rates which consider an unsolvable challenge to current technologies. Nanotechnology in communication systems also enables manufacturers to create smaller computer processors and sensors, higher speed rates, and more energy-efficient associated with the current-generation components. This review presents the principle of operation, the application of nanotechnology, and the benefits of the recent developments in the telecommunication industry.
