The steeply rising demand for mobile data drives the investigation of the transmission backhaul network architecture and cost for the fifth generation (5G) of mobile technologies. The proposed backhaul architecture will facilitate high throughput, low latency, scalability, low cost of ownership, and high capacity backhaul for 5G mobile technologies. This paper presents a transmission backhaul network architecture for 5G technology; the proposed internet protocol (IP) transmission backhauling architecture includes the data center, core network, distribution network, and access or IP random access network. A mathematical model for the data center IP core network, IP distributed network, and the IP access network for capital expenditure (Capex), operational expenditure (Opex), and the total cost of ownership (TCO) are presented, as well as a mathematical model for the entire backhauling architecture. The result shows that the increase in IP sites is positively proportional to the Capex and negatively proportional to the Opex. The selectivity analysis shows that the increase in bandwidth is directly proportional to the Capex, Opex, and TCO in the IP core network. The increase in data centers is directly proportional to the Capex, Opex, and TCO of the entire backhauling architecture. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
