Motivated by providing solutions to design challenges of coexisting cellular and WiFi for future 5G application scenarios, this paper, first, conducts an in-depth investigation of current technological trends of 5G from user equipment (UE) design perspective, and then presents a cost-effective cellular-WiFi design methodology based on the new distributed phased array MIMO (DPA-MIMO) architecture for practical 5G UE devices as an example. Furthermore, additional 5G cellular-WiFi application scenarios and co-operation details within 5G heterogeneous networks are unveiled on top of the said cellular-WiFi co-enabled 5G UE design.
