- UTRA is part of the Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS).
- 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) long term evolution (LTE) is a part of Evolved UMTS (E-UMTS) using E-UTRA
- LTE-Advanced (LTE-A) is an evolved version of 3GPP LTE.
- 3GPP New Radio or New Radio Access Technology (NR) is an evolved version of 3GPP LTE/LTE-A.
- the three main requirement areas for 5G are (1) Enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB) area, (2) Massive Machine Type Communication (mMTC) area, and (3) Hyper-reliability and It includes the Ultra-reliable and Low Latency Communications (URLLC) area.
- eMBB Enhanced Mobile Broadband
- mMTC Massive Machine Type Communication
- URLLC Ultra-reliable and Low Latency Communications
- KPI key performance indicator
- eMBB goes far beyond basic mobile internet access, and covers rich interactive work, media and entertainment applications in the cloud or augmented reality.
- Data is one of the key drivers of 5G, and we may not see dedicated voice services for the first time in the 5G era.
- voice is expected to be handled as an application simply using the data connection provided by the communication system.
- the main causes for the increased traffic volume are the increase in content size and the increase in the number of applications requiring high data rates.
- Streaming services (audio and video), interactive video and mobile internet connections will become more widely used as more devices connect to the internet. Many of these applications require always-on connectivity to push real-time information and notifications to users.
- Cloud storage and applications are rapidly growing in mobile communication platforms, which can be applied to both work and entertainment.
- cloud storage is a special use case that drives the growth of uplink data transmission rate.
- 5G is also used for remote work in the cloud, requiring much lower end-to-end latency to maintain a good user experience when tactile interfaces are used.
- Entertainment Cloud gaming and video streaming are another key factor driving the demand for mobile broadband capabilities. Entertainment is essential on smartphones and tablets anywhere including in highly mobile environments such as trains, cars and airplanes.
- Another use case is augmented reality for entertainment and information retrieval.
- augmented reality requires very low latency and instantaneous amount of data.
- URLLC includes new services that will change the industry through ultra-reliable/available low-latency links such as remote control of critical infrastructure and self-driving vehicles. This level of reliability and latency is essential for smart grid control, industrial automation, robotics, and drone control and coordination.
- 5G can complement fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) and cable-based broadband (or DOCSIS) as a means of delivering streams rated at hundreds of megabits per second to gigabits per second. These high speeds are required to deliver TV with resolutions above 4K (6K, 8K and beyond) as well as virtual and augmented reality.
- Virtual Reality (VR) and Augmented Reality (AR) applications include mostly immersive sports competitions. Certain applications may require special network settings. For example, in the case of VR games, game companies may need to integrate their core servers with the network operator's edge network servers to minimize latency.
- Automotive is expected to be an important new driver for 5G, with many use cases for mobile communications on vehicles. For example, entertainment for passengers requires simultaneous high-capacity and high-mobility mobile broadband. The reason is that future users will continue to expect high-quality connections regardless of their location and speed.
- Another use case in the automotive sector is augmented reality dashboards. It identifies objects in the dark over what the driver sees through the front window, and overlays information that tells the driver about the object's distance and movement.
- wireless modules will enable communication between vehicles, exchange of information between vehicles and supporting infrastructure, and exchange of information between vehicles and other connected devices (eg devices carried by pedestrians).
- a safety system can help reduce the risk of an accident by guiding the driver through alternate courses of action to make driving safer.
- the next step will be remotely controlled or self-driven vehicles. This requires very reliable and very fast communication between different self-driving vehicles and between the vehicle and the infrastructure. In the future, self-driving vehicles will perform all driving activities, leaving drivers to focus only on traffic anomalies that the vehicle itself cannot identify. The technical requirements of self-driving vehicles require ultra-low latency and ultra-high reliability to increase traffic safety to levels that are unattainable by humans.
- Smart cities and smart homes will be embedded with high-density wireless sensor networks.
- a distributed network of intelligent sensors will identify conditions for cost and energy-efficient maintenance of a city or home.
- a similar setup can be done for each household.
- Temperature sensors, window and heating controllers, burglar alarms and appliances are all connected wirelessly. Many of these sensors are typically low data rates, low power and low cost.
- real-time HD video for example, may be required in certain types of devices for surveillance.
- a smart grid interconnects these sensors using digital information and communication technologies to gather information and act on it. This information can include supplier and consumer behavior, allowing the smart grid to improve efficiency, reliability, affordability, sustainability of production and distribution of fuels such as electricity in an automated manner.
- the smart grid can also be viewed as another low-latency sensor network.
- the health sector has many applications that can benefit from mobile communications.
- the communication system may support telemedicine, which provides clinical care at a remote location. This can help reduce barriers to distance and improve access to health services that are not consistently available in remote rural areas. It is also used to save lives in critical care and emergencies.
- a mobile communication based wireless sensor network can provide remote monitoring and sensors for parameters such as heart rate and blood pressure.
- Wireless and mobile communications are becoming increasingly important in industrial applications. Wiring is expensive to install and maintain. Thus, the possibility of replacing cables with reconfigurable wireless links is an attractive opportunity in many industries. However, achieving this requires that wireless connections operate with cable-like latency, reliability and capacity, and that their management be simplified. Low latency and very low error probability are the new requirements that need to be connected with 5G.
- Logistics and freight tracking are important use cases for mobile communications that use location-based information systems to enable tracking of inventory and packages from anywhere.
- Logistics and freight tracking use cases typically require low data rates, but wide range and reliable location information.

- the UE may monitor only some SS sets configured for the second PDCCH monitoring adaptation instead of all SS sets.
- the configuration of the additional SS set for the second PDCCH monitoring adaptation needs to be associated with the configuration of the UL Grant window. For example, monitoring may not proceed because the additional SS set is not included within the duration of the UL Grant window due to periodicity.
