3. What is 5G?

4. Evolution of the G
 1G - first generation of mobile telecomm (1981)
 2G - first digital network (1991)
 3G - first broadband network (2001)
 4G/LTE - smart antennas, more flexible in how
we use spectrum (2009)

5. Who is working on it:
Global 5G Events Conference
 Americas, Japan, Republic of
Korea, China, Europe
METIS - Mobile and Wireless
Communications Enablers for the
Twenty-Twenty Information Society
 EU Flagship 5G Project

6. METIS
Technical objectives:
 1000x higher mobile data vol per area
 10-100x more connected devices
 10-100x higher user data rate
 10x longer battery life for low-power
massive machine communication
 5x reduced end-to-end latency

7. METIS
Scenarios and Challenges
 “Amazingly fast”
 “Great service in a crowd”
 “Best experience follows you”
 “Super real-time and reliable connections”
 “Ubiquitous things communicating”
Technology Components
Radio links, multi-node/multi-antenna
technologies, multi-layer and multi-RAT
networks, and spectrum usage

8. Investment & Installation Race
 2012 - UK government - 5G Innovation Center
 $60 million
 2013 - European Commission - Public Funding
 $960 million
 2014 - China, Korea, Japan
 $3-4 billion estimated over 5 years
 Verizon
 Nokia
 KT, South Korean mobile operator, and
Japanese carrier NTT DoCoMo

9. Olympics
 Japan 1964
 First-ever telecast games
to the rest of the world
 Japan 2020
 First commercial next gen network
 Ultra high speed
 Next to no latency

10. How to understand this joined-up,
superfast, all-encompassing
5G network?
“Harmonization of the
Radio Spectrum"

11. Refresher
 Data is transmitted via radio waves
 International Telecommunications Union
 Radio frequency spectrum a bit of a mess
 Frequencies squeezed into its gaps
 Problems with connection speeds and
reliability

12. Speed and Capacity
100 Times Faster - Speed about 10Gbps
5G's capacity will have to be vast
Raising the capacity of a network is a
little like widening a road tunnel
 More lanes = more cars going through

13. Latency
 Low Latency - essential for safety in
applications
o Driverless cars
o Remote surgery
“Ericsson predict that 5G's latency
will be around one millisecond -
unperceivable to a human and about
50 times faster than 4G”.

14. Innovations
 The huge rise in connected devices
will be due to a boom in inanimate
objects using the 5G network
 IoT
 Smart Products
 Smart Cities

15. 5G + Homes
 Encourage in-building
coverage
 Home router =
cell site
 53% of Americans only have one option for
25Mbps or higher home internet –rural areas
 Device to Device communication
 Small, inexpensive, low-power devices

16. 5G + Cars
Cars will interact with
each other on smart
roads
 Safety & Traffic
Control
Requires low latency

18. 5G + VR / AR
Industry worth $80 billion by 2025
 $45B (hardware) & $35B (software)
Oculus Rift requires 81 Mbps bitrate
 4G LTE = 50 Mbps
 5G = natural conversation in VR
VR Doctors
 Remote surgery

19. AR reveals things you wouldn't
normally know about and/or see
5G + VR / AR

21. Limited Frequencies
Radio Frequency is a limited resource
 More devices = More Interference
 Reduced effectiveness

22. Spectrum Management
 Efficient Use of Limited Resource
 Each country manages their airwaves
 In the United States
 NTIA handles federal government use
 FCC handles non-governmental use
 Unlicensed, Shared, Licensed

23. 5G Frequencies in US
FCC Approved July 2016
US is first nation to designate
bandwidth for 5G

24. 5G Frequencies in US
28, 37, 39 GHz for licensed use
 37-37.6 GHz band for shared use
64 - 71 GHz band for unlicensed use

25. 5G Frequencies in US
Innovation requires investment

26. A (More) Connected World

27. 5G Era Wireless Networks
Vast Capacity
High Speed
Low Latency
