Standardization Trends and Military Communication Applications of Core Technologies of 5G NR

5G New Radio(NR) technology, with its focus on high speed, low latency, and connectivity, introduces crucial advancements like MIMO for enhanced reliability and transmission rates, edge computing for reduced latency, and IAB for extended coverage. However, military communication networks face challenges such as limited capacity, unpredictable mobility and communication dead zones. This paper delves into the trends of the above 5G NR technologies outlined by the 3GPP standard, exploring their potential applications within military infrastructure networks. Our aim is to underscore the benefits of harnessing these technologies in military settings. Additionally, through simulation, we forecast the advantages associated with integrating these core 5G NR technologies, thereby paving the way for enhanced military communication capabilities.
