Assessment of Key 5G RAN Features for Integrated Services Provisioning in a Smart City Environment

The Fifth Generation (5G) network is expected to support three main service categories namely enhanced Mobile BroadBand (eMBB), Ultra-Reliable and Low-Latency Communications (URLLC) and massive Machine Type Communications (mMTC), where each service group has a different Quality of Service (QoS) requirements i.e. the eMBB service group has a high...

Space Time Code for Massive MIMO

Ubiquitous connectivity requirements and stringent quality-of-services (QoS)<br/>in recent wireless communications demand new revolutionary wireless network<br/>technologies to support the exponentially increasing traffic growth.<br/>Massive multiple-input-multiple-output (MIMO) with the capability of high<br/>spectral efficiency achieved by...
