While on the one hand 5G and B5G networks are challenged by ultra-high data rates in wideband applications like 100+ Gbps wireless Internet access, on the other hand they are expected to support reliable low-latency Internet of Things (IoT) applications with ultra-high connectivity. These conflicting challenges are addressed in a system proposal dealing with both extremes. In contrast to most recent publications, focus is on the frequency domain below 10~GHz. Towards this goal, multi-mode antenna technology is used and different realizations, offering up to eight uncorrelated ports per radiator element, are studied. Possible baseband architectures tailored to multi-mode antennas are discussed, enabling different options regarding precoding and beamforming.
