Abstract In this paper, we have observed that the smart cities leverage information and communication technologies (ICTs) for improved citizen services such as utilities, including energy consumption, transport management, etc., in order to reduce consumption of resources, curb wastage and bring down overall costs. A smart city can be fashioned out of an existing city as well as constructed as a greenfield project. The number of devices increases manifold in smart cities. A significant component of the challenge in communications in smart cities is the challenge of ensuring 5G communication in cellular and HetNets. Ad hoc networks can also be considered for deployment on need basis in smart cities. If the requirements of these formulations merge, then the solutions of one can be deployed for the betterment of the other. The first and foremost requirement of large data transfer in smart cities is bandwidth; fortunately, mmWaves have emerged as promising candidates for 5G networks. These can be deployed for setting up the communications in smart cities as well. The paper examines the protocols, simulators and initial feasibility analysis of introducing mmWave communications in smart cities. The scenario in a smart city has been modelled through wireless mobile network comprising i.i.d. Poisson distributed nodes for ad hoc networks and an infrastructure-based wireless mobile network at varying mobility of nodes. © Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd. 2020.
