Machine-to-machine communication, M2M, will make up a large portion of the new types of services and use cases that the fifth generation (5G) systems will address. On the one hand, 5G will connect a large number of low-cost and low-energy devices in the context of the Internet of things; on the other hand it will enable critical machine type communication use cases, such as smart factory, autom...

Choice of a suitable waveform is a key factor in the design of 5G physical layer. New waveform/s must be capable of supporting a greater density of users, higher data throughput and should provide more efficient utilization of available spectrum to support 5G vision of “everything everywhere and always connected” with “perception of infinite capacity”. Although orthogonal frequency division mul...

Multicarrier modulations considered for 5G include filtered orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (fOFDM), filter bank multicarrier (FBMC) and cyclic convolution based FBMC. In these modulations, to achieve better spectral containment compared to conventional OFDM, individual or groups of subcarriers are combined and shaped with a filter. This increases the computational complexity compare...

The fast technology development of 5G mobile broadband (5G), Internet of Things (IoT), Big Data Analytics (Big Data), Cloud Computing (Cloud) and Software Defined Networks (SDN) has made those technologies one after another and created strong interdependence among one another. For example, IoT applications that generate small data with large volume and fast velocity will need 5G with characteri...

BACKGROUND This study compares the effect of estrogens and ACE inhibition on plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) concentrations in healthy postmenopausal women, genotyped for a 4G/5G polymorphism in the PAI-1 promoter, a polymorphism shown to influence PAI-1 concentrations. Methods and Results- Morning estradiol, PAI-1, tissue plasminogen activator, plasma renin activity, angiotensin II, ...

BACKGROUND Experimental studies indicate that endogenous plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1, encoded by the gene SERPINE1) modulates the immune response to lipopolysaccharide (LPS). On the other hand, LPS induces PAI-1 secretion. Activation of individual cells by LPS is facilitated by CD14. The single nucleotide polymorphisms -675 4G/5G in SERPINE1 and C-159T in CD14 are major determinant...

nowadays, with the advent of new satellite services, the need for resource management in the emerging fifth generation satellite systems (5g-satellite) is inevitable. thus, to solve this problem, the bandwidth manager for resource reservation in satellite link is mandatory. on the other hand, due to limited resources, their resource management­ is essential. in order to resource management in 5...

The 5th generation of wireless systems will usher in tremendously revolutionized mobile communication systems that can provide ubiquitous, extremely high-throughput, and low-latency user experiences anytime, anywhere. Signif icantly increased system capacity and real-time responsiveness of 5G systems will enable new services, providing the users with a truly immersive and rich experience. The r...

mmMAGIC (Millimetre-Wave Based Mobile Radio Access Network for Fifth Generation Integrated Communications) is an EU funded 5G-PPP project, whose overall objective is to design and pre-develop a mobile radio access technology (RAT) operating in the 6-100 GHz range, capable of impacting standards and other relevant fora. The focus of the project is on extreme Mobile Broadband, which is expected t...

Spectrum is, and with the 5G deployment will become more and more, a very important asset in wireless telecommunication networks. The way that spectrum is allocated to different technologies and services, most of the time even in non-contiguous bands, varies a lot according to the geographic area in focus and to the different operators’ policies. The diverse usage of spectrum and the forthcomin...
