Until now, the notion of 5G was covered in a veil of mystery, with several stakeholders proposing disruptive ideas towards shifting the market to their customer base and expertise.
This book aims to harness the fragmented views on 5G mobile communications to paint a more focused technology roadmap, putting in place a clear set of challenges and requirements to address the so‐called 1000x challenge.
Drawing from the editor’s vast experience in European research and of being at the forefront of 5G communications, this book aims to be the first of its kind to talk openly about 5G, and will hopefully serve as a useful tool for all 5G stakeholders, in academia and industry alike, to draw inspiration towards taking further innovative strides in this fast‐evolving arena
