t model, both in terms of battery life and cost efficiency. Also, with the massive migration of the world's population toward urban environments, there is an increasing demand for cities to modernize their infrastructure and services. From water and power management to buildings and transportation, city planners will rely on new scalable, interconnected services that do not require cities to overhaul private and public infrastructure and are built for the future. 5G systems are enabling smart cities around the world to build long-term connectivity strat- legies that help improve livability and sustainability. The massive number of 5G connected devices (e.g., sensors and actuators) collects and pro- cesses data to monitor critical parameters and optimize performance based on environmental conditions. Sensors also enable service providers to detect when hidden pipes and cables need repair or when an unauthorized access occurs. 5G systems are designed to support reli- able low-latency communications among densely deployed devices that are subject to power constraints with wide range of data rate requirements. Video and audio streaming, video calls, social networking, and multimedia messaging are just some of the popular communications and entertainment applications used on today's wireless networks. In addition, new applications are emerging such as real-time multi-user gaming, virtual/augmented reality (VR/AR), 3D multi-site telepresence, ultra-high- resolution video streaming (e.g., 4K and 8K video), and photo and video sharing. These applications will require significant increase in data rate, capacity, and very low transport latency that is not supported by today's wireless networks. 5G systems provide solutions that enable continued evolution of communications and entertainment applications. There has been a great interest and early work around in the industry to enable smart, connected devices and realization of the IoT. This use case is about enabling growth through reducing the cost of connectivity of smart
