LTE/Wi-Fi/mmWave RAN-Level Interworking Using 2C/U Plane Splitting for Future 5G Networks
Integration of the promising Millimeter wave (mmWave) technology into the existing cellular network is one of the main challenges towards a unified multi-Gbps 5G cellular network. However, due to its short transmission range accompanied with the inevitable use of highly directional communication, directly controlling the access of mmWave small cells (SCs) using the legacy LTE eNB using conventional LTE/WLANs interworking ...
