This chapter brings up the vision that the Access Network (AN) in SC will develop towards a flexible and cognitive Unified Wireless Access (UWA) infrastructure with intelligence spread down to the level of each single user. The UWA with all its different types of users will function as a unique large scale complex system with integrated Communication, Navigation, Sensing and Services (CONASENSE). The characteristics and performance of such a UWA are further discussed and related to the ones of a Cyber-Physical System (CPS).
