LTE-LAA and Wi-Fi Coexistence on 5 GHz—A Survey

Wireless industry is growing exponentially due to the growth and demand of mobile services. The ever increasing demand of wireless services had forever increased the problem of scarcity of spectrum. The demand of data traffic is increasing day by day and 5 GHz unlicensed band is the best solution to meet this requirement pointed out by wireless industry. The 5 GHz unlicensed band is accessed as per the availability by using LTE technology and this is the best example of this operation to enhance the capacity of end user and to provide good quality of access to the users. This paper provides a comparative and vast survey on LTE-LAA and Wi-Fi coexistence on 5 GHz unlicensed band. In the first part of this paper we have discussed about the present scenario of coexistence of LTE-LAA and Wi-Fi tehnology. In second part we had covered the main key features of LTE and Wi-Fi technology. Finally we had discussed about the main challenges of coexistence of LTE-LAA and Wi-Fi Technology.
