Allegro For the Fifth Generation of Wireless Communications : An In-Depth Investigation of Indoor 5G Infrastructure for Commercial and Industrial Properties

Abstract: The complexities associated with the deployment of indoor 5G infrastructure in commercial and industrial buildings are explored, with the aim of identifying the most practical and cost-effective strategies. The research delves into technical, economic, and stakeholder aspects of indoor 5G implementation within the Swedish context. Key technical challenges and potential solutions are thoroughly examined, and the importance of high-capacity and dependable wireless coverage is underscored. The economic viability is probed, underpinned by an analysis of costs, potential revenue streams, strategic benefits, and regulatory policies. A cost-sharing model is proposed, offering insights into potentially sustainable and equitable ways of financing indoor 5G infrastructure. The distinctive roles and responsibilities of stakeholders, including telecommunication operators, property owners, end-users, equipment suppliers, and the regulatory authority, are elaborated upon, emphasizing the necessity of collaboration and shared responsibilities for successful 5G deployment. The study concludes by emphasizing the need for ongoing research and collaboration among stakeholders in the dynamic 5G ecosystem, underscoring the transformative nature of 5G in reshaping wireless connectivity and its potential to deliver substantial economic and societal advantages.
