Summary

Ultra-dense cloud radio access network (UDCRAN) architecture, which integrates the capability of cloud computing and edge computing with the massively deployed radio access points, is a promising solution for the fifth-generation and beyond mobile communications. In order to accommodate the anticipated explosive growth of data traffic, fronthauling technology becomes a challenge technical issue in the fifth-generation and beyond UDCRANs. Moreover, the schemes related to interference management and resource management need to be reconsidered. In this chapter, we will provide a comprehensive review of the current research progress on fronthauling technology. Moreover, we will compare the advantages of various candidate fronthaul schemes.
