  • Abstract
    The combination of millimeter-wave communications, arrays with a massive number of antennas, and small cell geometries is a symbiotic convergence of technologies that has the potential to dramatically improve wireless access and throughput. This article outlines the benefits, challenges, and potential solutions associated with cellular networks that incorporate these technologies.
