Cellular communications is not “green”:
• India: 70% of the 400,000 base stations lose grid power for up to 8 hours/day. Generators for cellular consume 2B liters of diesel/year. Globally there are >3Million off-grid base stations and >7Million “bad grid”. (IEEE Comm’s: May 2016)
• China Mobile consumed 14TWh in 2012. ~70% in 1.1 Million base stations. (IEEE Comm’s: Feb 2014)

Great Service in a Crowd: Shinjuku Station, Tokyo
– Tokyo has > 5,000,000 railway passengers every day
– Shinjuku, Tokyo’s largest station, has 4 levels,11 lines with trains arriving/departing
every 2 minutes on each line during peak times
– This equates to just under 26,000 UE’s operating in the station at any one time
– At 200m x 500m (0.1 km2), this is about 260,000 UE/km2 or one phone that could
be exchanging information on the user data-plane for every four square meters in
an area just over 100,000 m2
– Capacity and Backhaul provisioning: Anticipated data demand in 2020 is 20Mbps
per user at any one time. This means 5.2 Tbps/km2.
This happens every day at rush-hour

Latency: What will it take to get to 1ms
– LTE is about 20 ms best case (end-to-end)
– Maybe 80% of latency for video applications is not in the network but in compression
algorithms at either end
– In free space light travels about 300 km – (186 miles) in 1 ms – such latency will have
to be in applications that are relatively local. Must consider latency in backhaul, which
is slower than light, so may restrict distance.

Spectrum: Activity for the User
– Determine which are available and used in the US and contrast that with what is
available in Europe and Japan respectively. This highlights several things:
• The difference between what is
- In The Standard (neatly and universally numbered frequency bands); and
- Dictated by National/International Policy (many not available to cellular, 3GPP
LTE bands that are split between carriers, and much spectrum still consumed by
legacy mobile technologies)
Look up the LTE bands that exist today—what is currently defined

mmWave: Why Phased Array Antennas?
For illustration: 0dB of Total Antenna Gain at 1km. Path Loss is:
At 1.8 GHz: ~98 dB ( 82 dB + 16 dB )
At 28 GHz: ~121 dB ( 82 dB + 39 dB )
So that’s 23 dB of base-line additional link-budget needed (or a factor of 200X more power). And this does not include atmospheric or other channel conditions.

MIMO: How Many Antennas Does it Take to be “Massive”
When you encounter more than eight antennas you are most likely encountering one of
three things. They are all different and should not be confused.
Take Care: The Industry is Sloppy With the Terminology
26
May 2017
– mmWave Beam Management: Required to maintain a link budget with high
frequencies. This is not MIMO. If in doubt, see previous slides.
– LTE-Advanced Full-Dimension (FD) MIMO: In the 3GPP Standard as of R13 and being
deployed today
– “Marzettian” (based on Dr. Thomas Marzetta’s work at Nokia Bell Labs) “Massive
MIMO”: Being researched/developed/trialed for use in 5G

“Beamforming”
Beamforming uses multiple antennas to control the direction of a
wave-front by appropriately weighting the magnitude and phase of
individual antenna signals in an array of multiple antennas.
What Does This Mean?
28
May 2017
LTE-A has 10 Transmission Modes
Only 2 of these perform beamforming
(TM7 & TM8) and these reduce the
number of streams to less than 2.

– Large operators are virtualizing
their ePC
– Each major entity is being
implemented as a software entity
running on a flexible number of
CPU’s depending upon demand
– AT&T’s Tom Keithley stated in

5G Timing: Drivers
– 3GPP: RAN TWG focused on 5G now—less so on 4G items. March 2017 decision to accelerate NSL 5G “New Radio” standard
– Commercialization announcements:
• Verizon fixed mmWave 2017
• AT&T fixed mmWave 2018;
• KT “5G” in 2019
• DOCOMO 5G in 2020.
Cardinal Dates still intact in spite of hype

5G Updates from Keysight
Timing
– WW Trials focused on showcase events
and initial commercialization
– General commercial deployment >=18
months after 3GPP R15. But some will
go early with “pre-5G” (e.g. mmWave
FWTTH.)
– 5G NR Acceleration: NSL opt.3 (eMBB
NR RAN � LTE ePC) complete Dec
2017. Remaining R15 due Sept. 18
– <=2020 Commercialization: <6GHz
focused on increased efficiency &
flexibility. >6GHz on FW before 2022.
– 2022 Commercialization >6GHz focused
on eMBB, Automotive/Industrial, & next
steps in new NW.
Recent Observations and Conclusions: March 2017

Verizon and KT) driving changes to
Technologies:
– Virtualizing the core and the RAN
– Higher-order 3D and Massive MIMO
– Air Interface: Pre-5G specs (e.g. Verizon and KT) driving changes to standards process
• Stand alone vs. non-stand-alone complexity
• LTE-like with flexible numerology & coding.
• Universal and flexible frame structure for all frequencies/bands
– Significant effort on open-source for network virtualization
Policy
Spectrum:
– Shared spectrum and “5G equivalent” of LAA will drive significant technical work
– mmWave bands: US FCC: 28,37,39 GHz for eMBB. 7GHz extension of unlicensed v-band.
– OfCOM and CEPT leaning to 24.5-27.5GHz and 32GHz
– Japan/Korea will likely showcase 28GHz—not clear about formal license
– China focus is <6GHz: ~3.5GHz especially

6 Questions You Should Be Able to Answer
– True or False: 5G is focused mostly on adding high data-rate mmWave to cellular
radio.
– True or False: The majority of technology investment in 5G is related to the new air
interface (5G NR)
– How many antennas does a base station have to have to be used for massive MIMO?
– Which large company is the only one investing in nearly all facets of 5G:
semiconductors, UE/CPE, gNB, network hardware, network software, applications?
– Is “The Internet of Things” synonymous with “5G”?
– When will 5G be commercially deployed?
