Different working groups have proposed different template that will suite 5G cellular network, but these can only be achieved by harmonizing all these standards, policies and regulations to achieve this goal. This study focused on how existing mobile cellular technologies can be fused into the proposed 5G cellular technology and highlight key challenges that will be experienced from planning phase to full deployment phase.enSecond generationThird GenerationFourth generationFifth GenerationPoint-to-PointSoftware Defined RadioThe Journey of 5G Mobile Communication NetworksArticle
