5G WIRELESS COMMUNICATIONS SYSTEMS : PROSPECTS AND CHALLENGES The Requirements, Challenges, and Technologies for 5G of Terrestrial Mobile Telecommunication Shanzhi Chen and Jian Zhao ABSTRACT Higher traffic data asymmetry : The ratio of downlink to uplink traffic was around 6:1 in In this article, we summarize the 5G mobile 2010, and the ratio could rise to 10:1 over communication requirements and challenges. the next five years [2] as the proportion of First, essential requirements for 5G are pointed video traffic in the total mobile traffic out, including higher traffic volume, indoor or grows. hotspot traffic, and spectrum, energy, and cost Huge numbers of subscribers : will be created efficiency. Along with these changes of require- from machine-to-machine (M2M) applica- ments, we present a potential step change for tions, which are estimated at 100-fold or the evolution toward 5G, which shows that more of mobile phone subscribers. macro-local coexisting and coordinating paths Energy consumption : for future mobile net- will replace one macro-dominated path as in 4G works may need to be reduced on the order and before.
