Abstract

Spectrum efficiency is one of the key performance metrics in 5G communication networks. To enhance spectrum efficiency, advanced spectrum sharing techniques are normally used. In this article, we provide a survey of the recent development of advanced techniques for spectrum sharing. In particular, we elaborate cognitive radio, device-todevice communication, in-band full-duplex communication, non-orthogonal multiple access, and Long Term Evolution on unlicensed spectrum. For each technique, we present the basic principle and research methodology of the state of the art. By considering various promising evolutions in 5G networks, we emphasize challenges to deploy each technique. Finally, we discuss the integration issue of multiple spectrum sharing techniques and identify potential challenges.

Recomputing p-values needs the paper’s full text.

Claims the paper makes

This paper’s full text isn’t openly available, so its claims and self-check weren’t run. The registry and citation checks still apply.

Claims other papers make about this one

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?

  • Recent studies have revealed inherent security weaknesses in blockchain operations, mostly related to 5G systems.

    “However, recent studies have revealed inherent security weaknesses in blockchain operations which are mostly related to 5G systems [296].”
  • Adversaries can exploit the 51% vulnerability to modify transaction ordering, hamper normal mining operations, or initiate double-spending attacks, degrading the blockchain network.

    “Seriously, adversaries can exploit this vulnerability to perform attacks, for example, they can modify the ordering of transactions, hamper normal mining operations or initiate double-spending attack, all of which can degrade the blockchain network [296].”

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
