• je c t – Main Goal
• To promote the development of 5G ecosystem in

Brazil through:

 Establishing and maintaining open interaction with non- ICT organizations, also called vertical sectors;  Sharing information regarding 5G technology among Members and Associates in line with compliance and legal limits.  Representing the common interest of the members, when requested, in national and international forums related to 5G

Soc ial and E c onomic Aspe c ts

• Digital divide affects developed and developing

countries

• The increase in broadband Internet access

significantly influences the GDP (gross domestic product) of a country

• To separate people from information and

communication technologies and services is no longer acceptable in contemporary society.

• 5G can offer a huge opportunity to solve this

problem

Challe nge s

• How to make the remote areas scenario

economically viable?

• How to make the remote areas scenario attractive to
• perators?
• Using new technologies, as Cognitive Radio.
• Using new approaches to Spectrum Allocation.
• Using economic incentives.

Multiple Access

• Cognitive Radio
• Multi-RAT
• Full-Duplex

• Millimeter waves is not possible

 Sub 1-GHz is necessary

T e c hnologic al T r e nds for Re mote Ar e as

• Ultra dense networks is not applicable

 A super cell is necessary – 50 km radius

• Cognitive Radio

 Some important aspects: dynamic spectrum access; fragmented spectrum allocation; TV white space exploitation; interference mitigation.  Can enable a new regulatory model  Can economically make the scenario viable

• New Waveforms

 Low OOB (Out-of-Band) emission is a big issue for cognitive radio  Flexible waveforms are important to cognitive radio  GFDM is a very good option for this scenario

Conc lusions

• There are huge social problems in the world
• Keeping people disconnected increases these

problems and is no longer acceptable

• The increase in broadband Internet access

significantly influences the economy

• Agribusiness is very important for several countries,

like Brazil

• 5G can offer a huge opportunity to address these

questions, if the Remote Area Scenario is placed in focus
