Agenda

1. Challenges: today and tomorrowa.k.a. why we need 5G

2. Innovations with potential to address thema.k.a. what 5G might look like

This talk will be only about network architectureadvances. Of course, future network researchis also active on physical layer aspects!

New challenges

Lots of smart phones+ flat billing+ decreasing revenue per bit= a big headache

BUTTHAT’S NOTHING!

Challenges (tomorrow)Massive Machine Comms

Machine != human₋ many more devices (10x-100x)₋ very long battery lifetimes (> 5Y)₋ low-cost devices (< 1€)₋ small payloads (few bytes)₋ fast setup (few 10’s ms)₋ low latency (< 1 ms)₋ what else?
