Research on the 5th generation (5G) network has been at the center of interest in recent years. High transmission rates, reliability, energy efficiency and the ability to interconnect multiple and heterogeneous devices into a single network are key features of 5G technology. In order to achieve these objectives, it is necessary to create flexible networks that can meet the requirements of the new telecommunications system. All stakeholders, such as regulators, standardization authorities, industrial fora, mobile operators and equipment sales companies must work together to complete the 5G. The standardization process is in full growth and is expected to be completed in 2020. The fifth generation of telecommunications will create an ecosystem of technical and business innovation that will fundamentally change entire vertical markets such as automotive, energy, agriculture, city management, health care and manufacturing and will open new frontiers for services and applications.
