Towards 5G HetNets: Speaker Introduction Jeffrey G. Andrews - PowerPoint PPT Presentation

Towards 5G HetNets: Speaker Introduction Jeffrey G. Andrews Wireless Networking and Communications Group (WNCG) Dept. of Electrical and Computer Engineering The University of Texas at Austin IEEE Comm. Theory Workshop Curacao May 2014

5G and 10,000x the bps/Hz/km 2 : where will the gains come from? Bandwidth (20x more Hz) Only one place to go: mmWave mmWave + HetNets (Also LTE-U as stopgap) • very complementary • densifying mmWave cells yields huge gains (SNR plus cell splitting) • Can possibly do self- mmWave + massive MIMO backhauling! Some competition here • 5G • Improved SINR via mmWave with high gain Effective Density (50x antennas, interference goes More Loaded BSs/km 2 ): to zero? 4G Efficient HetNets, small cell and WiFi offloading, maybe D2D Spectral efficiency (10x more bps/Hz) HetNets + massive MIMO • HetNets may not be able to More dimensions (massive MIMO) utilize massive MIMO Interference suppression? Cost a key challenge here •
