Abstract: Abstract Future 5G networks are expected to have the capabilities of providing extremely high data rates, seamless coverage, massive number of connected devices, low latency, etc., in order to support the internet of things era. The dynamic performance of 5G networks is a key feature for controlling the dense and rapidly changing communication environment. Technical issues such as limited frequency resources, interference, energy consumption, and network management are the main challenges facing 5G networks. This article presents a comprehensive study of 5G networks architecture, technologies, challenges, and possible solutions based on recent advances in technology and research.
