5G network slicing :
5G network slicing is a network architecture that enables the multiplexing of virtualized and independent logical networks on the same
physical network infrastructure. Each network slice is an isolated end-to-end network tailored to fulfil diverse requirements requested by
a particular application.

8. Hybrid antenna module concept for
28 GHz 5G beam-steering cellular devices
Paper summary :
Article about an hybrid antenna module concept at millimetre-waves to realize spherical
beamsteering coverage for cellular devices. The hybrid antenna module concept combines two
existing concepts: the AiP (Antenna-in-Package) and AoD (Antenna-on-Display) to steer the
antenna main lobe in the end-fire and broadside direction.

9. A 28GHz-band highly integrated GaAs RF
frontend module for massive MIMO in 5G
Paper summary :
Paper about a massive multiple input multiple output (MIMO) technology for 5G technology. To
create an active phased array antenna (APAA), a highly integrated GaAs RF frontend module is
developed at 28GHz-band. The module includes a four-stage power amplifier (PA), a three-stage
low noise amplifier (LNA) and a switch. With utilizing antenna RF units including the GaAs RF
frontend modules, the 16-beam spatial-multiplexing transmission trial is performed. The trial
results demonstrate a spectral efficiency of 63.7bps/Hz and a downlink transmission rate of
25.5Gbps.
