Overview
The current rate of carbon emissions, global temperatures will have risen by 2º C from pre-industrial levels. Therefore, there is an urgent need to plan the cities of the future for sustainability. As a major agent for promoting a quality of life compatible with a resource efficient economy, the smart city phenomenon has recently captured the imagination of the academia and the industry alike. 5G will provide expressively faster data speeds, much higher data capacity, better coverage, and lower latency. This amalgamation of elements will go beyond improving our own smartphone usage. It will enable the smart city. Since the Internet of things (IoT) is expected to be a primary driving force for future cities, advanced communication techniques will play a pivotal role in facilitating real-time data acquisition and utilization from distributed sensors. However, future cities will also have to operate within the constraints of the national economy and available power resources. Consequently, the challenges in the realization of smart cities are many and varied, such as low energy consumption requirement, constrained bandwidth and budgetary limitations. In order to overcome these hurdles, it is essential that new concepts and theories for optimizing the network in energy and spectral terms are presented to achieve a robust energy efficient environment monitoring and sustainable transportation network, among other provisions. This special issue is aimed at furthering this effort by forging collaborations through the presentation of state-of-the-art research in physical layer endeavours by scholars from across the globe.
