Abstract: Wireless technologies are rapidly transforming our lives in unprecedented ways with some of the envisioned concepts and applications already pushing the limits of human imagination and creativity. Since the completion of the fourth generation (4G) LTE standard around 2010, the research community has been conceiving 5G.
The 5G standards are scheduled to be finalized by the end of 2019; the deployment of 5G wireless networks is expected to start in early 2020s.
The first four generations of wireless networks have had one primary goal: providing wireless connectivity to mobile phones (and, more recently, to tablets). One of the prime highlights of the contemporary 4G LTE networks has been video streaming on smart phones. The 5G wireless will be our first experimentation with novel use-cases (including those in transportation, education, health, entertainment, public safety & security, automation, and robotics) towards a global wireless super-connectivity.
