RESCUE 2016 - Advanced PHY and MAC Layer Design for 5G Mobile Networks and Internet of Things

5G is expected to revolutionize the way we communicate now by supporting massive devices and immersive applications, which
demand exceptionally high-speed wireless connections, a fully-realized internet of things (IoT), experience lower latency and
promote both spectrum and energy efficiency. To realize these benefits, 5G systems are expected to differ fundamentally from
their predecessors with a number of ground-breaking innovations. Densely deployed wireless networks provide one of the most
important and sustainable solutions and contributing to 5G small-cell technology, wireless sensor networks (WSN), machine-tomachine
(M2M) communications and to public safety networks (PSN). However there are many serious technical issues
identified in the implementation of these networks need to be investigated.
