  The single most important factor behind the data rate increases experienced
by users of wireless networks over the past few decades has been densification,
namely adding more base stations and access points and thus getting more
spatial reuse of the spectrum. This trend is set to continue into 5G and
presumably beyond. However, at some point further densification will no longer
be able to provide exponentially increasing data rates. Like the end of Moore's
Law, this would have massive implications on the entire technology landscape,
which depends ever more heavily on wireless connectivity. When and why will
this happen? How might we prolong this from occurring for as long as possible?
These are the questions explored in this paper.
