Part 1
1. Identify and choose a product or service to your project
The project involves moving from 4G to 5G. The increase in
data usage necessitates a faster network that meets the current
and future needs of customers. While the data bandwidth of 4G
technologies is between 2Mbps and 1Gbps, that of 5G
technologies is 1Gbps and higher. Additionally, the frequency
band of 4G technologies is between 2 and 8 GHz, while that of
5G technologies is between 3 and 300 GHz (Govindasamy,
2015). Unlike 4G which relies on the carrier’s network
infrastructure individually, 5G depends on linking numerous

carrier streams. The move will utilize the small cells approach
to discharge network strains on 4G infrastructure to cover larger
areas using coverage densification. Replacing 4G with 5G will
address three key needs, which include decreasing latency to
less than second, increasing data rates of at least 1GB for every
second simultaneously for more users, and increasing energy
efficiency (Govindasamy, 2015).
2. Explain: Why it a project:
Moving from 4G to 5G is a project because it requires
many phases before a successful deployment and release to the
customer for usage. The roll-out phase involves both non-
standalone and standalone architectures. The first phase focuses
on non-standalone architecture, where the basic network
functions are validated. Key performance indicators include
control plane latency, user plane latency, and cell peak data
rate. The standalone 5G NR architecture is deployed in the last
part of the roll-out phase (Marabissi et al., 2018). Key
performance indicators related to mobility and handover will be
validated, particularly mobility interruption time whose
expected value is one second. The project roadmap and timeline
will require between 2 and 5 years in order to accomplish a full
deployment. Part of the deployment process is Pre 5G to allow a
smooth transition from the current 4G to 5G.
3. Scope:
The successful implementation of the technologies require the
identification of the participants in the development of the
technology, identification of the existing infrastructure
implications in the development and deployment of 5G, and
identification and study of the potential technical barriers.
Bringing together the right experts is critical to the successful
completion of the project. It is important to identify the existing
infrastructure that would be useful to the project to minimize
time and costs without compromising quality. An early
identification of technical barriers facilitates the determination
of approaches to counter the barriers.
Part 2

Objectives and Critical Success Factors
Objectives
· To develop pre-5G technologies that precede 5G to enhance
capacity.
· To determine services/connectivity use cases that will be
enabled by 5G?
· To determine how the broader IoT connectivity landscape will
incorporate 5G.
· To establish if future device types as well as OEMs, ranging
from traditional mobile phones to Internet of Things devices,
view 5G as a single connectivity layer (together with legacy
telecommunications) or part of a multi-mode atmosphere
(Govindasamy, 2015).
· To find out if industry cooperation shall be needed to
accelerate or facilitate the transition to 5G.
· To establish different what means can players adversely be
impacted by future 5G networks incorporated into their existing
product/services in order to maximize potential benefit.
Outputs
· Moving from 4G to 5G project will require many phases
before a successful deployment and release to the customer for
usage.
· Successful change from 4G to 5G in its existing uses.
· Creation of the strategic implementation group.
· Securing a development partner.
Outcomes
The project is estimated to deliver:
· New jobs;
· New homes/student accommodation installed with 5G;
· Business/retail and leisure floorspace installed with 5G;
· New community health facility installed with 5G
· Improvements to the public realm, the transport system as well
as the appearance of the buildings and townscape in the area.
· These suggestions, if delivered, shall make a substantial
contribution to and directly back the movement from 4G to 5G.
· The discernment that a 5G rollout is imminent must be placed

into context – in spite of the idealized situations, placement is
likely to be evolutionary, as opposed to innovatory (Osseiran et
al., 2014).
· Mobile network Operators will actively execute these
technologies to not only upsurge overall network capacity but
similarly interweave their growth paths with 5G deployment to
facilitate ease of transition (Govindasamy, 2015).
Outcome Measures
· Based on a feasible Masterplan and making judicious
presumptions on the mix of proposals:
· Installation of 5G in 320-350 new homes/student
accommodation.
· Installation of 5G in 21,600-22950 sqm of business/retail and
leisure floorspace (onsite).
· Specifically, rollout shall start in areas of high demand
density, where 4G networks is still the basis, principally for
mobility. Credibly, 5G coverage shall be restricted to outside,
pedestrian centric places where regularities can reach users
without much hustle (Marabissi et al., 2018).
· Public satisfaction survey – about 80 percent of respondents
agree they are either contented or very contented with the
development (Marabissi et al., 2018).
· Improved internet services.

1. Project Summary
1.1 Project Summary
Write a short summary of the overall project. Also outline the
original intentions and whether these have been met.
The purpose of the project was to shift from 4G to 5G to be able
to meet the current and future increase in data usage and the
need for a network that meets the needs of users. This would
involve increasing the bandwidth to 1Gbps and higher and the
frequency from the previous range of between 2GHz and 8GHz
to between 3GHz and 300GHz. The roll-out involved both non-
standalone and standalone architectures. The first phase focused
on non-standalone architecture, where the basic network
functions were validated. The standalone 5G NR architecture
was deployed in the last part of the roll-out phase The outcomes
of the project include decreased latency to less than second,
increased data rates of at least 1GB for every second
simultaneously for more users, and increased energy efficiency.
2. Conclusions of Project Review
2.1 Project Review
Outline whether the review of this project has been formal or
informal and who has been involved in it.
Informal: initial search …do you concur with the findings.
Formal: consulting with professional team, experts engineers..
The review of the project was informal, which involved

searching for scholarly information and visiting reputable
websites. Information from IOSR Journal of Electronics and
Communication Engineering, International Journal of Computer
Science and Mobile Computing, and Future Internet was critical
in completing the project. Initial search entailed the
identification of the requirements for a successful move from
4G to 5G, identification of project estimates, and best practices.
2.2 Conclusions
Write some bullet points of the main conclusions of the project
review, especially around the success or failure of the project
and the way it was conducted throughout.
· The 5g system consists of a user terminal and several
independent, autonomous radio access technologies. Each of the
radio access technologies within each of the terminal serves as
the IP link to the outside internet world. However, there is a
different radio interface for each Radio Access Technology in
the mobile terminal
· The data link and physical levels define the radio access
technologies and facilitate access to the internet with QoS
support mechanisms, which rely on the access technology. The
network layer is the IP and ensures enough control of data for
effective routing of IP packets.
· The move involved the introduction of a new level to take care
of the abstraction levels of the network access technologies to
higher layers of the protocol stack.
· The network abstraction level was providd by introducing IP
tunnels over IP interfaces obtained by connecting to the
terminal through the access technologies available to the
terminal.
This would result in a scalable speed of 1Gbps in the preg5 and
higher speeds as we get closer to full deployment of the 5G
network.
3. Lessons Learned
3.1 Lessons Learned

Outline any key points that should be considered for any future
projects.
· The coordination and implementation of an aggressive 5G
project requires a careful approach based on a clear plan
· The specific bands of spectrum allocated by the government
play a critical role in the success of the 5G project.
· The roll-out phase should focus on both non-standalone and
standalone architectures
· The project relies on experts with adequate experience in 4G
to inform the move to 5G at the lowest possible cost and shorted
time because some 4G technologies can be utilized.
Challenges going from to 4g to 5g
· Testing is not a quick process because of the time and
resources that need to be invested. 5G tests can be conducted
both indoor and outdoor or in fixed wireless access points.
· The portions of the radio spectrum that 5G networks operate
on need to be purchased. They should be licensed by regulators.
The steps involved in licensing are tedious and can take a
longer time.
· It is expensive to roll-out 5G. Costs to be incurred include
spectrum licensing, physical hardware, hiring technicians,
testing and retesting the network, and deployment fees (Fisher,
2019).
5 points mistakes that has been made before and how do we
avoid them
· Failing to develop a plan that outlines all the requirements
before the initiation of the project is a major mistake made in
earlier projects
· The failure to utilize a team of experts with an understanding
of the current technology and the requirements for the current
project
· Failing to comply with regulations
· Incomplete testing and retesting
· The failure to utilize the existing technologies and resources,
thus resulting in higher costs

4. Recommendations for Future Work
4.1 Recommendations
If this project failed to meet its objectives or has
generated/uncovered the need for additional work, please
outline these here.
· The architecture of 5G technologies should be user-oriented.
Manufacturers, service providers, and content providers should
study and consider user needs at the initiation stage for more
satisfying end user experience (Liu, Shi, Wang, & Li, 2017).
· More private enterprises should be enrolled in spectrum
efficiency research as innovation system to facilitate smooth
transition from 4G to 5G
· Cooperation and sharing of results in a global context is
required for standardization
5. Ongoing Risks & Issues to be Aware of
5.1 Ongoing risks and issues
Outline any risks and issues that need to be considered or
monitored after the project has closed.
· 5G radiations have adverse effects on health. For example, 5G
high spectrum range can result in mutation of cells and induce
tumours that might become cancer (Verma, Tejaswini, &
Pradhan, 2019).
· Adverse environmental effects include necrosis symptoms on
leaves and reduced survivorship of wildlife
· 5G wireless networks threaten weather forecasts by interfering
with crucial satellite-based earth observations (Witze, 2019).
6. Project Cost
6.1 Final Project Cost
Outline the projected versus actual cost of the project.
The projected cost was $2 million but the actual cost was $2.3
million. The increase in cost was influenced by inflation and
additional technical requirements

6.2 Any Ongoing Costs
Outline any ongoing costs, such as annual system maintenance
fees.
Ongoing costs include annual system maintenance, hiring
experts to manage the system, and compliance.
