abstract = {The fifth-generation mobile initiative, 5G, is a
tremendous and collective effort to specify, standardize, design,
manufacture, and deploy the next cellular network generation.
5G networks will support demanding services such as enhanced
Mobile Broadband, Ultra-Reliable and Low Latency Communications and massive Machine-Type Communications, which will
require data rates of tens of Gbps, latencies of few milliseconds
and connection densities of millions of devices per square kilometer. This survey presents the most significant use cases expected
for 5G including their corresponding scenarios and traffic models.
First, the paper analyzes the characteristics and requirements for
5G communications, considering aspects such as traffic volume,
network deployments, and main performance targets. Secondly,
emphasizing the definition of performance evaluation criteria
for 5G technologies, the paper reviews related proposals from
principal standards development organizations and industry
alliances. Finally, well-defined and significant 5G use cases are
provided. As a result, these guidelines will help and ease the
performance evaluation of current and future 5G innovations, as
well as the dimensioning of 5G future deployments.},
