With an increasing demand for new generation mobile networks, ITU Radiocommunication Sector (ITU-R) has set forth key technical performance requirements for the development of the IMT-2020 system, also known as the fifth generation (5G) system [1], and has started to invite submissions of candidate radio interface technologies for IMT2020 [2]. To ensure that IMT-2020's requirements can be met, the submitted candidate radio interface technologies will be evaluated by independent evaluation groups under the evaluation guidelines of Report ITU-R M.EIMT-2020. EVAL1 [3], where system -level simulation is employed as the major tool for the performance evaluation of various application scenarios.

A few decades ago, antennas were almost unnoticed in the urban and suburban landscape, except for home television receive antennas. At that time, such areas had a few AM, FM, and television broadcast antennas that were sometimes collocated (although less so in the United States) and served wide areas. The low-capacity land mobile radio systems that existed then also used antennas sited on relatively few high towers or building sites, covering large areas but with little total capacity compared to today’s cellular systems.

This column reviews the concept of user-centric access, which permits the network to tailor a “follow me” virtual cell for a user via multipoint coordination in a UDN environment. We further discuss the feasibility of extending such a virtual cell by considering tight integration of heterogeneous RATs exposed to the user, by taking the context information and instantaneous status of the user device into account. In particular, we conceive an edge/fog computing platform capable of acquiring and jointly processing information from multiple heterogeneous RATs and the users. Such a framework may have great potential to play key roles in 5G and beyond, in terms of realizing truly flexible radio access that can be customized for each individual user in the network.

The articles in this special section focus on dynamic spectrum management for fifth generation (5G) communications which is expected to continue strong growth in the near future. In the last decade global mobile data traffic has approximately doubled each year, growth that is projected to continue unabated, due mainly to the introduction of new services and features specified by standards bodies. Thus, the wireless industry is asked to fulfill an increase in mobile data demand by a factor of 1000, which is one of the most challenging requirements that the 5G system design has to address. There are various opportunities to enhance the network capacity, for example, by exploiting advanced receiver techniques, novel cooperative multipoint transmissions schemes, innovative multi-antenna solutions, and finally, an effective and broad deployment of heterogeneous networks. Unfortunately, these foreseen technical innovations on small cells and macrocells seem insufficient to reach the 1000 target. One of the key enablers that can allow supporting the required data traffic is to exploit additional bands, and to guarantee access to as much licensed and unlicensed spectrum as possible. Therefore, the wireless research community has to focus much more on enhanced, more effective, and also completely new spectrum management techniques.

Driven by the data requirements envisioned for the fifth generation (5G) of wireless services, the mobile community is focusing on breaking the spectrum gridlock that characterizes cellular technology. In this context, researchers and industries have identified millimeter-wave (mmWave) communications as a key enabler for providing unprecedented radio access capacity. Nevertheless, due to the specific differences between this technology and microwave systems, there are multiple research challenges spanning from the hardware to the overall system architecture. The goal of this column is to provide an overview of these challenges and discuss the most promising solutions to make 5G mmWave communications a reality.
