Abstract
Fifth generation (5G) technology is being incorporated into the infrastructure of many sectors to provide high-quality communication services, smart factories, vehicle-to-vehicle connection, and many other new services. Next-generation networking technology ultra-wideband (UWB) connects many devices and provides location-based services. This chapter reviews 5G enabling technologies and the cellular network as backhaul network interface and solution. Wireless backhauling, which replaces fiber cables for core network communication, is discussed in this chapter. Wireless backhaul sends communications between nodes using radio or microwave frequencies. Wireless backhaul can be installed faster and cheaper than fiber when fiber is too costly or impracticable (which involves trenching). 5G's enhanced connectivity, AI, massive IoT, and other disruptive technologies for essential sectors and public services will be crucial to these solutions. This chapter compares 5G and 6G.
