The project ENABLING-5G is proposed from the results obtained in the project SICOMORO (TEC-2011- 28789-C02- 01) as an applied oriented research project to evaluate radio technologies in real scenarios to give a solution to the challenges of the future fifth generation communications systems (5G). The project is based on the following hypothesis:
- The new 5G systems will use frequency bands not exploited for consumer communications.
- The new 5G systems will extend to new environments, particularly communications for the intelligent transport, vehicles as air flights or railways, isolated areas or emergency situations.
- Radio technologies have to experience a consolidation process to cover the new needs of the society.
