5G is the first system where frequencies higher than 6 GHz are taken into account. The motivation behind new spectrum portions is the mentioned need for offering throughput of gigabit/s and more. The game is worth playing since, in the mmWave, Gigahertz spectrum bandwidths can be applied. But one may pose the question: if the price is so exciting then why nobody used mmWaves previously in cellular systems?

For decades now, telecommunications solutions have been constantly changing the face of the Polish and global economy, as well as our everyday life. In the context of the next development leap towards the so-called industry 4.0, wireless telecommunications, and in particular, 5G will play an important role. In August 2020, the Poznan University of Technology granted RIMEDO Labs license to use the university's know-how in the field of algorithms used in telecommunications networks.

In this post we look at published trends and forecasts for our area of interest: Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) and in particular radio communication. We consider technology trends in 2020, from the following sources: Gartner, Deloitte, Future Today Institute, Forbes, IEEE Communication Society, and Ericsson.

This post describes the generalized hierarchical and modular resource management architecture consisting of a unified upper layer, an abstraction middle layer, and a specialized lower layer. This approach can be applied to complex mobile wireless systems like 5G and beyond.

Every odd generation provided the “new” type of service to the mobile communications (1G started voice in mobile communications, 3G started Internet access, 5G started verticals), while every even generation provided the “good” solution for the services approached by the odd generation.

A new trend, the so-called mobile private networks may become an important item in the telecommunications landscape. It relies on the implementation of 5G or LTE systems dedicated to specific enterprises and purposes in which the infrastructure is under the responsibility of the enterprise itself or of the venue owner, and the frequency band is licensed locally.
