5G Network Architecture and the Future Mobile Internet

Friday, March 24, 2017

Dipankar Raychaudhuri, Distinguished Professor, ECE, Rutgers University

This talk provides a discussion of one of the central design challenges associated with next-generation “5G”
wireless systems - that of effectively converging 3GPP-based mobile networks with the global Internet.
Although the trend towards “flat” IP-based architectures for cellular networks is well under way with LTE,
significant architectural evolution will be needed to achieve the goal of supporting the needs of mobile
devices and applications as “first-class” services on the Internet. Several emerging mobility service scenarios

Wireless electronic devices are everywhere in our daily lives with applications ranging from data communication to energy transfer and biomedical sensing. Power amplifier (PA) interfaces the antenna and governs the energy efficiency of a wireless transceiver. Its linearity is also of paramount importance to ensure the signal fidelity. Moreover, its broadband operation is highly desired for high-speed communication and high-resolution sensing. However, integrating a PA in silicon entails challenges due to the PA’s nature of large-signal and highly dynamic operation.

The mm-wave frequency spectrum has gained prominence in recent years to support high-data rate energy efficient wireless communication for the future 5G standards and other IoT applications. Mass-deployment and adoption of such technologies rely on silicon integration of the mm-wave transceivers. However, achieving high data-rates at mm-wave frequencies over long distance wireless links require efficient Watt-level transmitters and power amplifiers – a challenge in low breakdown voltage silicon technologies.

Hello from the Director

Director Sujit Dey

Hello from the Center for Wireless Communications at UC San Diego, home of the annual 5G Wireless Forum and the newly created Connected Health Workshop.

As wireless communications continue to grow and evolve, it is essential that our mission and membership at the CWC grow and evolve in parallel. It therefore gives me great pleasure to announce we have welcomed several new companies as our members in the past year, including Kaiser Permanente, KETI, Samsung Research America, Murata and Teradata Labs. These new partnerships have been carefully selected to reflect several growth areas in wireless applications, from traditional wireless companies to data analytics and healthcare.
