Abstract

Many countries are faced with different challenges in the deployment of 5G mobile wireless communication technology. These challenges have delayed the smooth rollout of this technology in these countries. Nigeria has its own issues that have hindered the implementation of this technology in the country. This paper discusses these challenges and suggestions made on what to do for the implementation of 5G technology. A survey was done by visiting and obtaining reports from two major players in the industry as well as understudying actions taken by other nations in tackling similar problems related to 5G network implementation. Based on the information gathered both from the industry and related literature some useful suggestions such as improved fiber infrastructure and relaxing regulatory barriers to encourage investors were made as a way forward for the full implementation and operation of the 5G technology in Nigeria.

Summary

INTRODUCTION

Mobile wireless communication in Nigeria has evolved over the years. From the analog based technology of 1G (first generation) to the digital wireless systems of 2G (second generation), 3G (third generation) and the most recent and current 4G (fourth generation). The. International Mobile Telecommunication (IMT) 2020 standards is a name for the systems, components, and related elements that support enhanced capabilities beyond those offered by IMT-2000 (3G) and IMT-Advanced (4G) systems [4]. International Mobile Telecommunication (IMT) 2020 standards is a name for the systems, components, and related elements that support enhanced capabilities beyond those offered by IMT-2000 (3G) and IMT-Advanced (4G) systems [4] This technology is expected to improve on the performance of 4G by offering new applications for improved services. The CR has the ability of cognitive intelligence It can in real-time detect the nature of the environment and through adaptive change parameter settings for the study and decision-making, make full use of spectrum resources effectively [7].
