Sparse Code Multiple Access [SCMA] for 5G New Radio [NR]
December 28, 2018

Introduction New Radio (NR) is a newly approved study item in 3GPP, focusing on the design of the next generation (5G) air interface. 5G air interface is intended for having faster access, higher transmission rates, support of larger user density, and overall better user experience. At the same time, 5G connects to new vertical industries […]

5G Use Cases. Nice Story!
December 14, 2018

Through my research I found this nice story that illustrates the three main use cases for 5G:  To understand the three broad use cases that 5G wireless technology seeks to transform, consider a typical morning office commute in a 5G-connected car just a few years down the road. The vehicle is continuously changing position, behavior, […]
