Abstract

This work presents an overview of fifth-generation (5G) technology, its key functionalities, and its applications. Then, we introduce the topic of 5G radio network planning, making analysis and design methods for coverage and capacity determinations, considering 3GPP standards. With these results, we apply the standards and procedures for a business/dense urban area in Quito city, considering the relevant parameters for calculations and simulations using the Atoll tool. Specifically, we consider the following: the key propagation models Macro/Micro, bandwidths, use cases, data rates, frequency bands (3.5/28 GHz), and modulation orders, etc. Finally, we discuss the proposed network planning and provide some useful insights regarding the 5G mobile network in Quito.
