Spectrum Toolbox Survey: Evolution Towards 5G (Presentation)

Type: Presentation
Authors: Marcin Dryjanski (Grandmetric), Michal Szydelko (Movilo)

Slide material presented at CROWNCOM 2016 in Grenoble, France on Spectrum Toolbox. This material covers the available frequency bands, spectrum aggregation mechanisms, licensing and duplexing schemes, as well as spectrum sharing and refarming techniques. We go define Spectrum Toolbox and discuss around the evolution of each of the building block.

Outline:

• Introduction to Heterogeneous Networks
• Spectrum Toolbox Definition
• Evolution of Building Blocks (Frequency Bands, Spectrum Aggregation Schemes, Duplexing Schemes, Spectrum Licensing and Sharing Schemes, Spectrum Refarming)
• Summary and Conclusions
