To meet the requirements of mobile networks toward year 2020, the next genera- tion of mobile networks （termed as IMT-2020, or 5G） is designed to support 100 Mbps-1 Gbps user-experienced data rate, 1 ms radio transmission latency, and 1 million connec- tions per square kilometer. Recalling the vision and requirements of 5G targeting for commer- cial launch in 2020, this article overviews the key features of 5G and compares with those of 4G, and reports the world first field trials conducted to validate the key performance of 5G radio interface in 3.SGHz band. The trial results show that a 1 ms transmission latency and 1 Gbps data rate are achievable.展开更多
