There is considerable pressure to define the key requirements of 5G, develop 5G standards,
and perform technology trials as quickly as possible. Normally, these activities are best done …

Next-generation wireless networks are expected to be highly heterogeneous, multilayered,
with embedded intelligence at both the core and edge of the network. In such a context …

We provide a comprehensive overview of mathematical models and analytical techniques
for millimeter wave (mmWave) cellular systems. The two fundamental physical differences …

In the modern technological world, wireless communication has taken a massive leap from
the conventional communication system to a new radio communication network. The novel …

A shared-surface dual-band antenna is proposed for 5G operation using characteristic mode
analysis (CMA). The surface is the integration of a metasurface at the S-band and a partially …

This paper elaborates on the design challenges, opportunities, and solutions for New Radio-
based access to Unlicensed spectrum (NR-U) by taking into account the beam-based …

While the current generation of mobile and fixed communication networks has been
standardized for mobile broadband services, the next generation is driven by the vision of …

Next‐generation wireless communication networks, in particular, the densified 5G will bring
many developments to the existing telecommunications industry. The key benefits will be the …

An empirically based analysis of propagation characteristics in two vegetated suburban
areas with different types and fractions of vegetation cover in 5G millimeter-wave (mmWave) …

The next generation of wireless networks will feature a more flexible radio access design,
