TL;DR: The basic system architecture for THz wireless links with bandwidths of more than 50 GHz into optical networks is discussed and the role of PBF is highlighted, which is required in order to overcome the propagation losses, as well as the physical layer and medium access control challenges.

TL;DR: The use of analog radio-over-fiber (ARoF) is proposed and demonstrated as a viable alternative which, combined with space division multiplexing in the optical distribution network as well as photonic integration of the required transceivers, shows a path to a scaleable fronthaul solution for 5G.

TL;DR: The breakthrough novel technology concepts, including the joint design of baseband signal processing for the complete optical and wireless link, the development of broadband and spectrally efficient RF-frontends for frequencies >275 GHz, as well as channel modelling, waveforms, antenna array and multiple-access schemes design, are presented.

TL;DR: MORPHEUS consists of a state of the art architecture that encompasses heterogeneous reconfigurable accelerators for implementing on the same hardware architecture applications with varying characteristics and a tool chain that eases the implementation of highly complex applications with heterogeneous characteristics.

TL;DR: This paper presents a centralised and dynamic approach for creating and provisioning network slices for virtual network operators' consumption to offer services to their end customers, focusing on an SDN wireless backhaul use case.
