Five disruptive technology directions for 5G

Abstract: New research directions will lead to fundamental changes in the design of future 5th generation (5G) cellular networks. This paper describes five technologies that could lead to both architectural and component disruptive design changes: device-centric architectures, millimeter Wave, Massive-MIMO, smarter devices, and native support to machine-2-machine. The key ideas for each technology are described, along with their potential impact on 5G and the research challenges that remain.

“…Frequency bands that appear to have the most potential are 28-30 GHz, the unlicensed 60 GHz band that covers various portions from 57-66 GHz that is country specific, E-band 71-76 GHz and 81-86 GHz, and 92-95 GHz (Boccardi et al 2014). There will of course be significant regulatory changes required to make these mmWave bands available for cellular networks.…”

“…It is estimated that 5G may be introduced in the late 2010s. Five disruptive technologies for 5G are described in Boccardi et al (2014), including device-centric architectures, millimetre wave, massive MIMO, smarter devices and native support for machine-to-machine communications. The following techniques, in our opinion, could become the foundations of 5G:…”

“…Using an accurate characterization of noise and interference caused by other calls from the given cell, as well as from the surrounding cells (which is absent from other proposals), we show that the scheme is capable of achieving satisfactory performance, as well as sufficient differentiation between traffic classes. It is, thus, suitable for the massive Machine-Type Communications (mMTC) scenario-i.e., a large number of MTC devices with short messages and low arrival rates-which represents one of the major use cases for the development of 5G radio and network technology [14]. Furthermore, our scheme allows M2M terminals to actually transmit data during PRACH access, which in most cases should suffice given the short messages typical for M2M devices, whereas other schemes use random access to initiate a connection and send actual data only later, which increases message latency and leads to inefficient utilization of the available bandwidth.…”

“…In particular, opportunistic D2D communications have been proposed as one of the 5G candidate technologies for supporting reliable 5G communications [3][4][5][6][7][8]. D2D communication technology could provide high data rates with lower energy consumption due to the relatively short transmission ranges involved, while it may increase the latency due to the multihop transmission among end devices without a base station (BS).…”
