AN OPERATOR PERSPECTIVE
From the operator’s point of view, expected that the upcoming 5G Technology and its implementation
later on could consider and accommodate several expectations as the following:
SPECTRUM Flexibility Flexible NETWORK ARCHITECHTURE INTELIGENT NETWORK MANAGEMENT
Dynamic and Flexible to use
any spectrum available
Available to use existing network
infrastructure, and leveraging
virtualized network functions
Intelligent, dynamic, and
automated network
management function
SCALABILITY & ADAPTABILITY Smart and UNIFIED PLATFORM
Scaling up and down easily,
and available to support next
emerging services
Reducing TCO by integrating
several functions into one unified
platform
Etc. ….
Such as regulation to control
implementation of broadband tariff

6. 6
SPECTRUM FLEXIBILITY
Below 1 GHz for lower range massive connections, below 6 GHz for mbb, mission critical and possibly
backhaul, above 6 GHz for both access and backhaul, gradual migration into existing spectrum
Coverage become smaller.
Require higher number of
BTS & indoor penetration
issue
Higher Spectrum band for
new technology release
(2G:900MHz,2.5G:1800MHz,
3G:2100MHz, 4G:2300MHz)
New technology can use
existing spectrum
(3G in 900 MHz, 4G in
900/1800 MHz)
Complex Spectrum
management,
Traffic offloading, re-farming,
and curving
IMPLICATIONSSome FACTS
 Multi/wide frequency carrier and dynamic frequency
channel allocation
 Scalable bandwidth per 1MHz and dynamic bandwidth
allocation depend on traffic usage, interference level, and
available channel .
 Spectrum and power sharing with existing technology
2G/3G/4G.
 Scalable frequency duplex (no dedicated channel for
DL/UL)
EXPECTATIONS

7. 7
FLEXIBLE NETWORK ARCHITECTURE
Flexible and scalable, secured by technology design, available to use existing core network
infrastructure and leverage by NFV/SDN technology
DISTRIBUTED ARCHITECTURE
Reduced overall cost, lower
latency, Reduced backhaul,
lower energy
VIRTUALIZED Network
Virtualized Network Functions
using NFV Technology
SINGLE & Modular CORE
Multi access to a
single core network
2G 3G 4G 5G
Leverage existing infrastructure
Lower Latency Edge Security
Control and user
plane closer to edge
Design for less
trusted nodes

8. 8
NETWORK MANAGEMENT CHALLENGES
Current frequency layering and multi technology implementation making network management becoming one
of the though challenge which expected could be solved by the upcoming 5G technology
Layering frequency
Multi frequency within a
coverage (2G:900MHz/1800MHz,
3G:2100MHz (F1+F2+F3+F4),
4G:900/1800/2300MHz)
Multi technology and multi
layer coverage (GSM900,
DCS1800, UMTS2100/900,
LTE900/18002300)
Coverage overshooting and
overlapping (macro to
macro, macro to small cell,
etc)
Very close inter macro site
distance and massive small cell
Complex layering management,
Load balancing and quality
management
Complex Network management,
Maintenance & operational issue
Coverage, quality & capacity

Load balancing, interference,
pollution issues
Coverage management,
