The Next Generation Mobile Networks (NGMN) Alliance has published its three
deliverables on 5G Extreme Requirements to further drive and guide development
of all future mobile broadband technology with focus on Fifth Generation (5G),
reports ITREALMS.
These deliverables, ITREALMS
gathered were entitled “Operators’ views on fundamental trade-offs”, “RAN
Solutions”, and “End-to-End considerations”, respectively.
Compiled by the Alliance’s 5G Extreme Requirements task
force, the papers aim to highlight what implications and trade-offs
related to the delivery of new 5G services are relevant for mobile network
operators.
Ilaria Thibault, task force lead and Principal
Researcher at Vodafone commented: “We are very excited to reveal
the findings of the outcome of the Extreme Requirements task force,
which was to really strike at the heart of what needs to be
assessed before the world embarks on advanced 5G services.
This work quantifies and analyses the coverage
impact of delivering new extreme 5G
services (Ultra-reliable and Low-latency – URLLC) for the radio
access network with a theoretical analysis, system-level simulations, and field
trials. End-to-end deployment guidelines for meeting extreme requirements at a
service level are also provided. Among these guidelines, techniques such
as path redundancy and new transport-layer protocols are
discussed to improve end-to-end latency and reliability.
For latency-critical
services, interworking between the Non-3GPP processing delays and
3GPP processing delays has been assessed.”
CEO of the NGMN Alliance Peter Meissner added: “Our task
force has highlighted several key challenges that are crucial to the
future of 5G connectivity and how the industry needs to adequately deal
with these. Consequently, this year’s NGMN Conference &
Exhibition will see us run a special
session where operators are set to share results
from their 5G tests, trials and first user experience. Our aim is to
uncover the new use cases of 5G and how they will be
leveraged in the next few years.”
