Practical Aspects for the Integration of 5G Networks and IoT Applications in Smart Cities Environments
Table 3
Radio interface goals as defined in IMT-2020.
(i) MR for downlink peak data rate is 20 Gbps
(ii) MR for uplink peak data rate is 10 Gbps
(iii) Target downlink “user experienced data rate” is 100 Mbps
(iv) Target uplink “user experienced data rate” is 50 Mbps
(v) Downlink peak spectral efficiency is 30 bps/Hz
(vi) Uplink peak spectral efficiency is 15 bps/Hz
(vii) MR for user plane latency for eMBB is 4ms
(viii) MR for user plane latency for URLLC is 1ms
(ix) MR for control plane latency is 20ms (a lower control plane latency of around 10ms is encouraged)
(x) Minimum requirement for connection density is 1,000,000 devices per km2
(xi) Requirement for bandwidth is at least 100 MHz
(xii) Bandwidths up to 1 GHz are required for higher frequencies (above 6 GHz)
