I. Introduction

From the journey of analogue through to Long-

Term Evolution, each mobile technology

generation has been developed to meet the

identified requirements. The mobile broadband has

enormous advantages and it fundamentally

changed the life style of people. We can control the

home appliances from anywhere in the world with

the help of wireless technology. The switching

from 3.5G to 4G services provides considerably

faster data speeds and lower latency rates to the

users, and the people can use the internet on mobile

devices continues to change dramatically. The ITU

reporting that 4G customers consume around

double the monthly amount of data in contrast to

non-4G users, and in some cases three times as

much. An increased level of video streaming by

customers on 4G networks is often cited by

operators as a major contributing factor to this [1].

To fulfill the increasing demands of mobile

broadband users 5G technology development is

under process. 5G is fifth generation and refers to

the next and newest mobile wireless standard based

on the IEEE 802.11ac standard of broadband

technology. 5G connections must be based on user

experience, system performance, enhanced

services, business models and management &

operations. The table I completely describes the

generations of mobile technology [2].

Table I. Mobile Generations

II.Internet of things

A wide range of mobile technologies based IoT

applications will be widespread by 2020. The

internet of things applications are developed to

grow at a much faster pace than the existing

networks and the mobile technologies can

optimally handle. A wireless network infrastructure

is needed to support the billions of IoT devices in

terms of its capacity and coverage [3]. It can also

optimally handle the different services needed by

various IoT applications. The examples of differing

service needs include diverse requirements for

mobility, latency, network reliability and

resiliency. These diverse requirements may require

re-architecting key components of the mobile

network to support the mobility on-demand only

for those devices and services that need it.

A.Critical Infrastructure Monitioring

The critical infrastructure monitoring is an

expensive undertaking and it requires service levels

achievable only by dedicated wire-line

connectivity. It is difficult to detect a fault in a

high-voltage transmission line and complicated to

prevent cascading failures. On the other hand,

structural monitoring requires the provisioning of a

large number of low-data-rate, battery-powered

wireless sensors, that today’s wireless networks are

not optimized to support both in terms of battery

life and cost efficiency [4]. But 5G will be

designed to handle reliable low-latency

communications among densely deployed devices

that are subject to power constraints and wide-

ranging data rate requirements.

B.Smart Transportation

Traffic congestion is a major issue in many urban

areas. The various issues such as productivity loss,

environmental pollution and degradation of quality

of life are caused by traffic congestion issue [5].

The 5G will enable a real-time collection of

massive amounts of data from vehicles, drivers,

pedestrians, road sensors and cameras to help

streamline traffic flow. It may help to optimize the

traffic lights and road usage, direct public

transportation to avoid congestion and raise tolls to

limit traffic entering a congestion area.

C.Telemedicine

For the improvement of healthcare services both in

remote rural and urban areas telemedicine plays an

important role. It helps to minimize the health care

costs and provides better healthcare resources. The

major issue in this field is the comprehensive use

of cloud-based electronic medical records that

would serve as repositories of medical information

about individual patients. But with the help of 5G

technology, the records containing high-resolution

medical images and video, that will be available to

physicians and medical professionals anytime and

anywhere.

III.Performance requirements of 5g

The performance of 5G technologies depends upon

the various different types of parameters such as

latency, mobility, reliability which are briefly

discussed in table II.

Table II. Performance Requirements of 5G network

The 5G network requirements further categorized

in two parts, the first part is user driven

requirements and the second part is network

driven. The User driven requirements of 5G deals

in terms of quality of service (QoS), Speed and

customer satisfaction. The 5G network will be

feasible if it provides longer battery life and

minimizes the energy consumption. In terms of

mobility 5G systems will be designed to support

both very-high-mobility scenarios as well as

scenarios with low to no mobility for end devices

[5]. The table III shows the user driven

requirements of 5G network.

Table III. User driven requirements of 5G network

On the other hand in network driven requirements

scalability, network capacity and cost efficiency

are the major parameters. The main objective of

behind the development of these technologies is to

handle a dramatic capacity increase in the 5G

network with efficient utilization of all possible

resources. Based on the Shannon theory, the total

system capacity Csum can be expressed by:

Csum = ∑ Bi + log2

(1+Pi/NP)...…………………………….

(1)

In equation 1, B i is the bandwidth of the ith

channel,

Pi is the signal power of the ith channel, and Np

denotes the noise power [6]. It is clear that the total

system capacity Csum is equivalent to the sum

capacity of all sub channels and heterogeneous

networks. To increase the total system capacity

Csum, we can increase the network coverage,

number of sub channels and cooperative MIMO.

A.Massive MIMO

MIMO is a radio communication technology,

which uses multiple antennas on both transmitter

and receiver sides and works on spatial diversity by

making the use of reflected signals. The term

diversity means to provide the receiver with

redundant versions of the same signal to be sent.

This is applied due to the reason that, a channel

being wireless is affected by fading as the signal

travels multipath and may get reflected by any of

the path, due to which the SNR will decrease and

the original signal will not be detected. Thus, the

idea is to make the multiple versions or copies of

the signal and send them to the receiver. So that's

not all, at least one or more copies of the signal

will reach the destination because the signal is

affected in different ways by the multipath it

travels through, and the probability that the copies

will be affected at the same time is considerably

reduced because by moving the antennas even a

small distance the paths used will change . So,

Massive MIMO systems can increase the capacity

without increasing the transmission power by

spreading the same total transmit power over the

antennas to achieve an array gain that improves the

spectral efficiency (more bits per second per hertz

of bandwidth) and/or to achieve a diversity gain

that improves the link reliability (shown in figure

2).

B.Space Diversity

Space diversity is used in the Massive MIMO

systems. It uses antennas located in different

positions to take advantage of the different radio

paths that exist in a typical terrestrial environment.

C.Spatial Multiplexing:

This form of massive MIMO is used to provide

additional data capacity by utilizing the different

paths to carry additional traffic, i.e. increasing the

data throughput capability.

D.Device-to-Device (D2D) Communications

Device-to-Device (D2D) Communication is termed

as direct communication between devices without

any traffic congestion going through the network

infrastructure. The network interference is minimized

by controlling the radio resource usage of the direct

links. The goals are to increase coverage, to offload

backhaul, to provide fallback connectivity, and to

increase spectrum utilization and capacity per area.

E.Moving Networks

Moving Networks (MN) are used to enhance and

extend coverage for potentially large populations that

are part of jointly moving communication devices. A

moving network node or a group of such nodes can

form a “moving network” which communicates with

its environment.

V.Conclusion

Wireless communication is proved to be one of the

biggest gifts from the telecom industry for the growth

of one’s country. Wireless communication involves

the transmitting of data through the wireless medium.

It alters the use of cables, long wires through the use

air as the medium for transmitting information. This

paper provides the extensive survey of 5G wireless

cellular networks including the potential technologies

used for the development of 5G network.
