Spectrum Usage for 5G Mobile Communication Systems and Electromagnetic Compatibility with Existent Technologies

Broadband Communications Networks - Recent Advances and Lessons from Practice 2018
Guntis Ancāns, Vjačeslavs Bobrovs

The increased demand of consumers on services in the mobile broadband environment with high data rate and developed mobile broadband communication systems will require more spectrum to be available in the future. New technologies as well as the existing services require frequencies for their development. In this chapter we investigate the available and potential future mobile terrestrial radio frequency bands (5G) – worldwide and in Europe. An insight into the mobile spectrum estimate is provided. Characteristics and requirements of IMT-2020, future possible IMT frequency bands, examples of 5G usage scenarios are also addressed in the chapter. Electromagnetic compatibility evaluation methods are provided mainly focusing on existent mobile technologies below 1 GHz where also 5G technologies will be developed in future. It is stressed that the radio frequency spectrum is a limited national resource that will become increasingly precious in the future.
