It targets throughputs of around 10 Gbps. eMBB significantly exceeds basic mobile internet access, enabling rich interactive experiences, media and entertainment applications in the cloud, and augmented reality. Data is a key driver of 5G, and for the first time, dedicated voice services may not be available in the 5G era. In 5G, voice is expected to be handled as an application, simply using the data connection provided by the communication system. The increased traffic volume is primarily due to the increasing content size and the growing number of applications that require high data rates. Streaming services (audio and video), interactive video, and mobile internet connectivity will become more prevalent as more devices connect to the internet.
- Cloud storage and applications are rapidly growing on mobile communication platforms, and this can be applied to both work and entertainment.
- Cloud storage is a particular use case driving the growth of uplink data rates.
- 5G is also used for remote work in the cloud, requiring significantly lower end-to-end latency to maintain a superior user experience when tactile interfaces are used.
- cloud gaming and video streaming are other key factors driving the demand for mobile broadband.
- Entertainment is essential on smartphones and tablets, regardless of location, including in highly mobile environments like trains, cars, and airplanes.
- Another use case is augmented reality and information retrieval for entertainment, where augmented reality requires extremely low latency and instantaneous data volumes.
- mMTC is designed to enable communication between a large number of low-cost, battery-powered devices, supporting applications such as smart metering, logistics, field, and body sensors.
- mMTC targets a battery life of approximately 10 years and/or a population of approximately 1 million devices per square kilometer.
- mMTC enables seamless connectivity of embedded sensors across all sectors and is one of the most anticipated 5G use cases.
- the number of IoT devices is projected to reach 20.4 billion by 2020.
- Industrial IoT is one area where 5G will play a key role, enabling smart cities, asset tracking, smart utilities, agriculture, and security infrastructure.
- URLLC is ideal for vehicle communications, industrial control, factory automation, remote surgery, smart grids, and public safety applications by enabling devices and machines to communicate with high reliability, very low latency, and high availability.
- URLLC targets latency on the order of 1 ms.
- URLLC encompasses new services that will transform industries through ultra-reliable, low-latency links, such as remote control of critical infrastructure and autonomous vehicles. This level of reliability and latency is essential for smart grid control, industrial automation, robotics, and drone control and coordination.
- Automotive is expected to be a significant new driver for 5G, with numerous use cases for in-vehicle mobile communications. For example, passenger entertainment demands both high capacity and high mobile broadband, as future users will consistently expect high-quality connectivity regardless of their location and speed.
- Another automotive application is augmented reality dashboards.
- An AR dashboard allows drivers to identify objects in the dark on top of what they see through the windshield. The AR dashboard overlays information to inform the driver about the distance and movement of objects.
- wireless modules will enable vehicle-to-vehicle communication, information exchange between vehicles and supporting infrastructure, and information exchange between vehicles and other connected devices (e.g., devices accompanying pedestrians).
- Safety systems can guide drivers to safer driving behaviors, reducing the risk of accidents.
- the next step will be remotely controlled or autonomous vehicles, which require highly reliable and fast communication between different autonomous vehicles and/or between vehicles and infrastructure.
- autonomous vehicles will perform all driving tasks, leaving drivers to focus solely on traffic anomalies that the vehicle itself cannot detect.
- the technological requirements for autonomous vehicles will require ultra-low latency and ultra-high-speed reliability, increasing traffic safety to levels unattainable by humans.
- Smart cities and smart homes often referred to as smart societies, will be embedded with dense wireless sensor networks.
- a distributed network of intelligent sensors will identify conditions for cost- and energy-efficient maintenance of cities or homes. Similar setups can be implemented for individual homes.
- Temperature sensors, window and heating controllers, burglar alarms, and appliances will all be wirelessly connected. Many of these sensors typically require low data rates, low power, and low cost. However, for example, real-time HD video may be required from certain types of devices for surveillance purposes.
- Smart grids interconnect these sensors using digital information and communication technologies to collect and act on information. This information can include the behavior of suppliers and consumers, enabling smart grids to improve efficiency, reliability, economic efficiency, sustainable production, and the automated distribution of fuels like electricity. Smart grids can also be viewed as another low-latency sensor network.
- Telecommunications systems can support telemedicine, which provides clinical care in remote locations. This can help reduce distance barriers and improve access to health services that are otherwise unavailable in remote rural areas. It can also be used to save lives in critical care and emergency situations.
- Mobile-based wireless sensor networks 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. Therefore, the potential to replace cables with reconfigurable wireless links presents an attractive opportunity for many industries. However, achieving this requires wireless connections to operate with similar latency, reliability, and capacity to cables, while simplifying their management. Low latency and extremely low error rates are new requirements for 5G connectivity.
- Logistics and freight tracking are important use cases for mobile communications, enabling the tracking of inventory and packages anywhere using location-based information systems. Logistics and freight tracking typically require low data rates but may require wide-range and reliable location information.
- next-generation communications e.g., 6G
- 6G next-generation communications
- the 6G (wireless communication) system aims to achieve (i) very high data rates per device, (ii) a very large number of connected devices, (iii) global connectivity, (iv) very low latency, (v) low energy consumption for battery-free IoT devices, (vi) ultra-reliable connectivity, and (vii) connected intelligence with machine learning capabilities.
- the vision of the 6G system can be divided into four aspects: intelligent connectivity, deep connectivity, holographic connectivity, and ubiquitous connectivity, and the 6G system can satisfy the requirements as shown in Table 1 below.
- Table 1 is a table showing an example of the requirements of a 6G system.
- Figure 5 is a diagram illustrating an example of a communication structure that can be provided in a 6G system.
- 6G systems are expected to have 50 times the simultaneous wireless connectivity of 5G systems.
- URLLC a key feature of 5G, will become even more crucial in 6G communications by providing end-to-end latency of less than 1 ms.
- 6G systems will have significantly higher volumetric spectral efficiency, compared to the commonly used area spectral efficiency.
- 6G systems can offer extremely long battery life and advanced battery technologies for energy harvesting, eliminating the need for separate charging for mobile devices in 6G systems.
- New network characteristics in 6G may include:
- 6G wireless networks will transfer power to charge the batteries of devices such as smartphones and sensors. Therefore, wireless information and energy transfer (WIET) will be integrated.
- WIET wireless information and energy transfer
- Ultra-dense heterogeneous networks will be another key feature of 6G communication systems.
- Multi-tier networks comprised of heterogeneous networks improve overall QoS and reduce costs.
- High-capacity backhaul Backhaul connections are characterized by high-capacity backhaul networks to support high-volume traffic.
- High-speed fiber optics and free-space optics (FSO) systems may be potential solutions to this problem.
- High-precision localization (or location-based services) through communications is a key feature of 6G wireless communication systems. Therefore, radar systems will be integrated with 6G networks.
- Softwarization and virtualization are two critical features that form the foundation of the design process for 5GB networks to ensure flexibility, reconfigurability, and programmability. Furthermore, billions of devices can be shared on a shared physical infrastructure.
- AI can also play a crucial role in machine-to-machine (M2M), machine-to-human, and human-to-machine communications. Furthermore, AI can facilitate rapid communication in brain-computer interfaces (BCIs). AI-based communication systems can be supported by metamaterials, intelligent structures, intelligent networks, intelligent devices, intelligent cognitive radios, self-sustaining wireless networks, and machine learning.
- M2M machine-to-machine
- BCIs brain-computer interfaces
- AI-based physical layer transmission refers to the application of AI-based signal processing and communication mechanisms, rather than traditional communication frameworks, in the fundamental signal processing and communication mechanisms. For example, this may include deep learning-based channel coding and decoding, deep learning-based signal estimation and detection, deep learning-based MIMO mechanisms, and AI-based resource scheduling and allocation.
- Machine learning can be used for channel estimation and channel tracking, as well as for power allocation and interference cancellation in the physical layer of the downlink (DL). Furthermore, machine learning can be used for antenna selection, power control, and symbol detection in MIMO systems.
- Deep learning-based AI algorithms require a large amount of training data to optimize training parameters.
- a large amount of training data is used offline. This means that static training on training data in specific channel environments can lead to conflicts with the dynamic characteristics and diversity of the wireless channel.
- Machine learning refers to a series of operations that train machines to perform tasks that humans can or cannot perform. Machine learning requires data and a learning model. Data learning methods in machine learning can be broadly categorized into three types: supervised learning, unsupervised learning, and reinforcement learning.
- Neural network training aims to minimize output errors. It involves repeatedly inputting training data into a neural network, calculating the neural network output and target error for the training data, and backpropagating the neural network error from the output layer to the input layer to update the weights of each node in the neural network to reduce the error.
- Supervised learning uses labeled training data, while unsupervised learning may not have labeled training data.
- the training data may be data in which each training data category is labeled.
- Labeled training data is input to a neural network, and the error can be calculated by comparing the output (categories) of the neural network with the training data labels.
- the calculated error is backpropagated through the neural network in the backward direction (i.e., from the output layer to the input layer), and the connection weights of each node in each layer of the neural network can be updated through backpropagation.
- the amount of change in the connection weights of each updated node can be determined by the learning rate.
- Learning methods may vary depending on the characteristics of the data. For example, if the goal is to accurately predict data transmitted by a transmitter in a communication system, supervised learning is preferable to unsupervised learning or reinforcement learning.
- the learning model corresponds to the human brain, and the most basic linear model can be thought of, but the machine learning paradigm that uses highly complex neural network structures, such as artificial neural networks, as learning models is called deep learning.
- Figure 6 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of a perceptron structure.
- a large-scale artificial neural network structure can extend the simplified perceptron structure illustrated in Fig. 6 to apply the input vector to perceptrons of different dimensions. For convenience of explanation, input values or output values are called nodes.
- the perceptron structure illustrated in Fig. 6 can be explained as consisting of a total of three layers based on input and output values.
- An artificial neural network in which there are H perceptrons of (d+1) dimensions between the 1st layer and the 2nd layer, and K perceptrons of (H+1) dimensions between the 2nd layer and the 3rd layer can be expressed as in Fig. 7.
- Figure 7 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of a multilayer perceptron structure.
- the aforementioned input, hidden, and output layers can be applied jointly not only to multilayer perceptrons but also to various artificial neural network structures, such as CNNs and RNNs, which will be described later.
- the machine learning paradigm that uses sufficiently deep artificial neural networks as learning models is called deep learning.
- the artificial neural network used for deep learning is called a deep neural network (DNN).
- Figure 8 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of a deep neural network.
- the deep neural network illustrated in Figure 8 is a multilayer perceptron consisting of eight hidden layers and eight output layers.
- the multilayer perceptron structure is referred to as a fully connected neural network.
- a fully connected neural network there is no connection between nodes located in the same layer, and there is a connection only between nodes located in adjacent layers.
- DNN has a fully connected neural network structure and is composed of a combination of multiple hidden layers and activation functions, and can be usefully applied to identify correlation characteristics between inputs and outputs.
- the correlation characteristic can mean the joint probability of inputs and outputs.
- Figure 9 is a schematic diagram illustrating an example of a convolutional neural network.
- Fig. 9 can assume a case where nodes are arranged two-dimensionally, with w nodes in width and h nodes in height (the convolutional neural network structure of Fig. 9).
- a weight is added to each connection in the connection process from one input node to the hidden layer, a total of h ⁇ w weights must be considered. Since there are h ⁇ w nodes in the input layer, a total of h2w2 weights are required between two adjacent layers.
- Each filter has a weight corresponding to its size, and weight learning can be performed to extract and output a specific feature on the image as a factor.
- weight learning can be performed to extract and output a specific feature on the image as a factor.
- a 3x3 filter is applied to the upper left 3x3 region of the input layer, and the output value resulting from performing weighted sum and activation function operations on the corresponding node is stored in z22.
- the above filter performs weighted sum and activation function operations while moving at a certain horizontal and vertical interval while scanning the input layer, and places the output value at the current filter position.
- This operation method is similar to the convolution operation for images in the field of computer vision, so a deep neural network with this structure is called a convolutional neural network (CNN), and the hidden layer generated as a result of the convolution operation is called a convolutional layer.
- a neural network with multiple convolutional layers is called a deep convolutional neural network (DCNN).
- the number of weights can be reduced by calculating a weighted sum that includes only the nodes located in the area covered by the filter, starting from the node where the current filter is located. This allows a single filter to focus on features within a local area. Accordingly, CNNs can be effectively applied to image data processing where physical distance in a two-dimensional area is an important criterion for judgment. Meanwhile, CNNs can apply multiple filters immediately before the convolutional layer, and can generate multiple output results through the convolution operation of each filter.
- a structure that applies a method of inputting one element of the data sequence at each timestep and inputting the output vector (hidden vector) of the hidden layer output at a specific timestep together with the immediately following element in the sequence is called a recurrent neural network structure.
- a recurrent neural network is a structure that inputs elements (x1(t), x2(t), ,..., xd(t)) of a data sequence at a time point t into a fully connected neural network, and then inputs the hidden vectors (z1(t-1), z2(t-1),..., zH(t-1)) of the immediately preceding time point t-1 together and applies a weighted sum and activation function.
- the reason for transmitting the hidden vector to the next time point in this way is because the information in the input vectors of the preceding time points is considered to be accumulated in the hidden vector of the current time point.
- Figure 12 is a diagram schematically illustrating an example of the operating structure of a recurrent neural network.
- the recurrent neural network operates in a predetermined order of time for the input data sequence.
- the hidden vector (z1(1), z2(1),..., zH(1)) is input together with the input vector (x1(2), x2(2),..., xd(2)) at time point 2, and the vector (z1(2), z2(2),..., zH(2)) of the hidden layer is determined through a weighted sum and an activation function. This process is repeatedly performed until time point 2, time point 3, ,,, time point T.
- Recurrent neural networks are designed to be useful for processing sequence data (e.g., natural language processing).
- THz waves also known as sub-millimeter waves, typically refer to the frequency range between 0.1 THz and 10 THz, with corresponding wavelengths ranging from 0.03 mm to 3 mm.
- the 100 GHz to 300 GHz band (sub-THz band) is considered a key part of the THz band for cellular communications. Adding the sub-THz band to the mmWave band will increase the capacity of 6G cellular communications.
- 300 GHz to 3 THz lies in the far infrared (IR) frequency band. While part of the optical band, the 300 GHz to 3 THz band lies at the boundary of the optical band, immediately following the RF band. Therefore, this 300 GHz to 3 THz band exhibits similarities to RF.
- Figure 13 is a diagram illustrating an example of the electromagnetic spectrum.
- THz communications Key characteristics include (i) the widely available bandwidth to support very high data rates and (ii) the high path loss that occurs at high frequencies (requiring highly directional antennas).
- the narrow beamwidths generated by highly directional antennas reduce interference.
- the small wavelength of THz signals allows for a significantly larger number of antenna elements to be integrated into devices and base stations operating in this band. This enables the use of advanced adaptive array technologies to overcome range limitations.
- FSO can be a promising technology for providing backhaul connectivity in 6G systems, in conjunction with fiber-optic networks.
- FSO supports high-capacity backhaul connectivity for remote and non-remote areas, such as the ocean, space, underwater, and isolated islands.
- FSO also supports cellular base station (BS) connections.
- BS base station
- MIMO technology One of the key technologies for improving spectral efficiency is the application of MIMO technology. As MIMO technology improves, spectral efficiency also improves. Therefore, massive MIMO technology will be crucial in 6G systems. Because MIMO technology utilizes multiple paths, multiplexing technology must be considered to ensure that data signals can be transmitted along more than one path, as well as beam generation and operation technologies suitable for the THz band.
- Blockchain will become a crucial technology for managing massive amounts of data in future communication systems.
- Blockchain is a form of distributed ledger technology.
- a distributed ledger is a database distributed across numerous nodes or computing devices. Each node replicates and stores an identical copy of the ledger.
- Blockchains are managed by a peer-to-peer network and can exist without being managed by a central authority or server. Data on a blockchain is collected and organized into blocks. Blocks are linked together and protected using cryptography.
- Blockchain perfectly complements large-scale IoT with its inherently enhanced interoperability, security, privacy, reliability, and scalability. Therefore, blockchain technology offers several features, such as interoperability between devices, traceability of large amounts of data, autonomous interaction with other IoT systems, and the massive connectivity stability of 6G communication systems.
- 3D BS will be provided via low-orbit satellites and UAVs. Adding a new dimension in altitude and associated degrees of freedom, 3D connections differ significantly from existing 2D networks.
- Tight integration of multiple frequencies and heterogeneous communication technologies is crucial in 6G systems. As a result, users will be able to seamlessly move from one network to another without requiring any manual configuration on their devices.
