About
Mehrdad Shariat’s research focuses on the foundational architecture and performance requirements of next-generation wireless systems, particularly 5G and beyond. His major contributions lie in characterizing use cases and defining key performance indicators (KPIs) for millimeter-wave (mmWave) communications, helping to shape the technical direction for systems operating between 6 GHz and 100 GHz. His most-cited work, a 2015 deliverable for the mmMAGIC project, systematically identifies and analyzes eight critical 5G use cases—including media on demand, cloud services, and dense urban society—establishing the performance benchmarks that guide spectrum allocation and system design. With over 7 citations, this study has informed both academic research and industry standards. Shariat’s work is notable for bridging the gap between theoretical frequency ranges and practical deployment scenarios, offering a clear roadmap for enabling high-capacity, low-latency services in challenging urban environments. For students and researchers, his contributions provide essential context for understanding how use-case requirements drive the evolution of wireless networks from 5G toward 6G.
