3 Traffic Growth. Demand for data continues to grow. Operators need to find new ways of providing for the capacity growth. Source: Ericsson Mobility Report November 2015

4 Requirements High Availability Average Speed Increase Low Latency 5G Massive Capacity Increase Energy Saving Increased Connected Devices Backward compatibility Harmonisation Low Cost

8 Spectrum GHz 8 There is significant amount of high frequency spectrum available in high frequency bands Therefore Global harmonization of 5G spectrum is essential Licensed or Unlicensed or both Larger bandwidths at high frequencies offer higher user speeds, however New (higher!) frequencies have challenges: higher pathloss, shorter reach more sensitive to Doppler effect huge atmospheric attenuation increased inbuilding penetration loss new channel models needed Visible Light line-of-sight becomes more crucial non-los links 10s of dbs weaker than LoS

9 New Network Architecture There would be 3 different deployment scenarios: Outdoor macro, micro, picocells, femtocells Indoor DAS, Smallcells Mobile cells Femtocells, relays Source: IEEE ComSoc Fibre access and new wireless backhaul will be significant part of 5G networks

10 Backhaul Support New 5G architecture will be comprised of many small cells 5G will require large bandwidth for backhaul connectivity to support high speeds Reference: IEEE ComSoc For ultra-dense deployment self-backhauling, full duplex operation and fibre connectivity are becoming important to balance cost, spectral efficiency and the performance. 5G will require new thinking of self-backhauling beyond its current use in 3GPP (4G)

13 Conclusion. 5G to deliver More efficient use of resources to deliver IoT 5G will require new thinking of self-backhauling beyond its current use in 3GPP (4G) Automation, enhanced SON Big data, enhanced user experience Devices Reduced cost Spectrum Bandwidth is limited at low frequencies which will be 4.5G next 5-10 years which may then be re-farmed to 5G. Larger bandwidths are available at high frequencies with several propagation challenges where 5G can deliver high speeds and reliability. Has to be Harmonised Backward compatible Easy to deploy and operate Low Cost
