Abstract

This paper presents an overview of 5G requirements as specified by 3GPP SA1. The main drivers for 5G were the requirement to provide more capacity and higher data rates and the requirement to support different ‘vertical’ sectors with ultra-reliable and low latency communication. The paper discusses basic requirements that are new for 5G and provides 5G performance requirements. The paper also discusses a number of vertical sectors that have influenced the 5G requirements work (V2X, mission critical, railway communication) and gives an overview of developments in 3GPP SA1 that will likely influence 5G specifications in the future.
