Harmonised mobile spectrum (WRC2015) (still to be licensed in most EU countries)

EU has indicated the 3.5 GHz band for early

5G deployment

Above 6 GHz (not in use for mobile yet)

Extreme bandwidths up to 1 GHz or 2 GHz for very high peak data rates at short ranges

In 2019 the ITU World Radio Conference (WRC2019) will decide on the allocation of harmonized spectrum above 6 GHz. In preparation of

WRC2019 a number of candidate bands are investigated. Issue: the recent FCC allocation of the 28 GHz band is not part of the ITU candidate bands.

Unifying technology to support applications across all frequency bands

Spectrum sharingNew wave forms

Directing transmission beams (energy) increases range and capacity, especially in high frequency bands with narrow beams and small form factors

• Support higher frequencies;

• Increase performance (latency, energy efficiency);

• Support different types of radio transmissions depending on the frequency band and the required mobility, coverage and bandwidth.

Self configuration

Different radio configurations for different applications

• Flexible parameter settings to tailor Quality of Experience to specific use cases (application, environment, end-user);

• Efficient use of resources
