A Survey of Physical Layer Security Techniques for 5G Wireless Networks and Challenges Ahead
Physical layer security which safeguards data confidentiality based on the
information-theoretic approaches has received significant research interest
recently. The key idea behind physical layer security is to utilize the
intrinsic randomness of the transmission channel to guarantee the security in
physical layer. The evolution towards 5G wireless communications poses new
challenges for physical layer security research. This paper provides a latest
survey of the physical layer security research on various promising 5G
technologies, including physical layer security coding, massive multiple-input
multiple-output, millimeter wave communications, heterogeneous networks,
non-orthogonal multiple access, full duplex technology, etc. Technical
challenges which remain unresolved at the time of writing are summarized and
the future trends of physical layer security in 5G and beyond are discussed.Comment: To appear in IEEE Journal on Selected Areas in Communication
Mobile Communications Beyond 52.6 GHz: Waveforms, Numerology, and Phase Noise Challenge
In this article, the first considerations for the 5G New Radio (NR) physical
layer evolution to support beyond 52.6GHz communications are provided. In
addition, the performance of both OFDM based and DFT-s-OFDM based networks are
evaluated with special emphasis on the phase noise (PN) induced distortion. It
is shown that DFT-s-OFDM is more robust against PN under 5G NR Release 15
assumptions, namely regarding the supported phase tracking reference signal
(PTRS) designs, since it enables more effective PN mitigation directly in the
time domain. To further improve the PN compensation capabilities, the PTRS
design for DFT-s-OFDM is revised, while for the OFDM waveform a novel block
PTRS structure is introduced, providing similar link performance as DFT-s-OFDM
with enhanced PTRS design. We demonstrate that the existing 5G NR Release 15
solutions can be extended to support efficient mobile communications at 60GHz
carrier frequency with the enhanced PTRS structures. In addition, DFT-s-OFDM
based downlink for user data could be considered for beyond 52.6GHz
communications to further improve system power efficiency and performance with
higher order modulation and coding schemes. Finally, network link budget and
cell size considerations are provided, showing that at certain bands with
specific transmit power regulation, the cell size can eventually be downlink
limited.Comment: This manuscript has been submitted to IEEE Wireless Communications

Telecommunications Wireless Generations: Overview, Technological Differences, Evolutional Triggers, and the Future
This study expands on prior studies on wireless telecommunication generations by examining the technological differences and evolutional triggers that characterise each Generation (from 1G to 5G). Based on a systematic literature review approach, this study examines fifty (50) articles to enhance our understanding of wireless generation evolution. Specifically, this study analyses i) the triggers that necessitated the evolution of wireless telecommunication generations and ii) makes a case regarding why it is imperative to look beyond the fifth Generation (5G) network technologies. The authors propose areas for future research
5G and beyond networks
This chapter investigates the Network Layer aspects that will characterize the merger of the cellular paradigm and the IoT architectures, in the context of the evolution towards 5G-and-beyond, including some promising emerging services as Unmanned Aerial Vehicles or Base Stations, and V2X communications
Review of Switched Beamforming Networks for Scannable Antenna Application towards Fifth Generation (5G) Technology
The next generation wireless network (5G) addresses the evolution beyond mobile internet to massive Internet-of-Things (IoT) which will take off from 2019/2020 onwards. The essential design features in 5G wireless network system are massive multiple-input and multiple-output (MIMO) and steerable antenna array. The higher capacity, lower power transmission and larger system coverage offered by upcoming 5G technology can be realized using switched-beam antenna such as Butler matrix, Rotman lens, Blass matrix and Nolen matrix. Review of their design features and performance results will be compared in this article. Butler matrix can be the best approach owing to low complexity, orthogonal beams and less components utilization
Analysis of LTE based an Antenna Design for 5G Communications
As the world progresses towards the next generation of communications networks, new technological solutions, architectures and standards are urgently required. This evolution of communications networks will facilitate numerous convincing business and consumer applications and speed up large investments in network infrastructure, appliances and devices. Wireless technologies of the last generation, 5G networks, promise an era of all-round, secure and powerful radio network. The use of 5G technology extends beyond traditional telecoms, and includes extremely low latencies, high energy efficiency or comprehensive Gbps. This paper also accurately includes 5G requirements and antenna categorization accompanied by a comparative study of various antenna designs. The various researchers have previously suggested several 5G antenna designs, but an exhaustive examination using their performance improvement system of the various types of 5G antenna has not yet been completed. We thus tried to examine the various types of 5G antenna design, their mechanisms for improving performance, comparisons and possible worldwide breakthroughs
Future 5G wireless communication systems: A new multicarrier shemes
Current wireless communication networks and technologies are being pushed to their limits by the massive growth in demands for mobile wireless data services. We now stand at a turning point in the wireless communication domain where the technologies are being driven by applications and expected use cases. This paper presents an overview on the drivers behind the 5G evolution and presents the new waveforms candidates for future generation network; the FBMC for filter bank multicarrier and UFMC for Universal filtered multi carrier are a potential concept for 5G and replacing the famous multicarrier modulation OFDM used in different technologies 4G. So there is a new way for the 5G transition expected beyond 2020
Beyond 5G URLLC Evolution: New Service Modes and Practical Considerations
Ultra-reliable low latency communications (URLLC) arose to serve industrial
IoT (IIoT) use cases within the 5G. Currently, it has inherent limitations to
support future services. Based on state-of-the-art research and practical
deployment experience, in this article, we introduce and advocate for three
variants: broadband, scalable and extreme URLLC. We discuss use cases and key
performance indicators and identify technology enablers for the new service
modes. We bring practical considerations from the IIoT testbed and provide an
outlook toward some new research directions.Comment: Submitted to IEEE Wireless Commun. Ma
