Jisc's Vision for 5G - Digital Catapult Future of 5G SummitMartin Hamilton
The slides from my talk at the Future of 5G Summit, held by the Connected Digital Economy Catapult (Digital Catapult) in London in November 2014. I cover industry perceptions of what 5G networking will look like, e.g. bandwidth, latency and massification factors. I also look at what Jisc is doing to help accelerate this agenda, through connectivity (the Janet Reach scheme) and support for asset sharing through our Kit-Catalogue equipment sharing database pilot.
5G faces several potential challenges as it transitions to becoming the new standard for mobile telecommunications. It will require extensive testing to ensure it can deliver promised performance and meet expectations, especially regarding understanding the millimeter wave channel environment. Shorter 5G wavelengths mean decreased range and sensitivity to obstacles, requiring a balance between performance and issues. Testing and development also present financial challenges in terms of installation and equipment costs.
5G wireless networks will support massive connectivity and capacity increases to enable new technologies and applications between 2020 and 2030. 5G will realize ultra-fast and low latency connectivity for both people and devices through advanced wireless technologies built upon existing standards like LTE as well as new radio access technologies. Key technology drivers for 5G include developments in mobile broadband speeds, spectrum and infrastructure to support applications like smart cities, industrial automation, and virtual and augmented reality.
The 5G is the latest technology which would ultimately revolutionize the era of Big Data and Internet of Things
(IoT). The telecom sector will boom and would create a great opportunity for the new businesses.
The satellite sector is undergoing the biggest transformation in its history and at the root of it all is New Space innovation. We’re moving into new orbits, moving towards new, configurable satellite designs and new business models. And as we saw last week during the Satellite Show’s LEO Forum, interest in this new era is surging as operators, launch providers, service providers and equipment manufacturers learn more about what is expected of them and how they will need to collaborate. This move to NGSO (Non-Geostationary Satellite Orbit) is now pushing the entire ecosystem towards new ways of thinking.

1. The document discusses Indonesia's efforts to prepare for next generation broadband and 5G networks through spectrum refarming and allocation.
2. Recent spectrum refarming in the 800MHz and 1800MHz bands helped expand broadband coverage and prepare networks for 4G LTE.
3. Preparing for 5G will require identifying additional spectrum bands, improving spectrum efficiency with new technologies, and considering a new paradigm with dynamic spectrum management and sharing.
Mobile Network Operators need to continuously expand capacity to meet the rapid growth in mobile data consumption. Crucially, this extra capacity needs to be delivered where demand arises, including deep indoors and in areas that are covered by fewer mobile radio sites. While substantial amounts of mid-bands spectrum and high-band spectrum are becoming available, the gap in the amount between low-band (sub-1 GHz) and mid-bands is increasing.

Performance Analysis and Optimization of Next Generation Wireless NetworksUniversity of Piraeus
The Fifth Generation (5G) networks, including the 5G Vehicular Cloud Computing (5G-VCC) systems, have evolved rapidly offering multiple services to users. The operating principles of vehicular networks, Cloud Computing (CC), Fog Computing (FC), Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) and Software Defined Networks (SDN) are applied to 5G infrastructures. In a 5G-VCC system, the vehicles are equipped with On-Board Units (OBUs) which communicate with each other as well as with Road Side Units (RSUs). Each RSU interacts with a Cloud infrastructure which offers vehicular services with strict Quality of Service (QoS) requirements, including Driver Assistance (DA), Passengers Entertainment and Information (PEnI) and Medical (MED) services. Dense deployments of 5G access networks are also implemented, called Ultra Dense Networks (UDNs), aiming to support high data rates produced by an increased number of vehicular users. In this environment, heterogeneous technologies are used to transfer the network services to vehicles. Optimal manipulation of the communication resources is required, while at the same time vehicular users should always obtain connectivity to the most appropriate network access technology, in order the constraints of the vehicular services to be satisfied. In this thesis, existing schemes for resource allocation as well as for mobility management are studied, while novel solutions are proposed for each topic.
The document discusses the realities of 5G network deployments based on a survey of wireless industry professionals. It finds that the majority have launched or are deploying 5G networks, with two-thirds expecting deployment by the end of 2021. The top challenges for 5G deployment identified are the maturity of 5G equipment, availability of consumer devices, and obtaining fronthaul/backhaul connectivity and cell sites. However, the document argues that careful network design, planning, and equipment selection can help address issues like reusing current infrastructure to ease deployment challenges and accelerate the rollout of 5G networks.
This document summarizes key information about 5G networks including:

The document discusses 5G technology, providing details on its key features, architecture, advantages and challenges. 5G is described as the next generation mobile network that will provide speeds up to 10 Gbps, allow connectivity of 100 times more devices, have virtually zero latency and support a wide range of new applications. The 5G architecture is based on an entirely IP-based model designed for wireless networks, with different radio access technologies connecting to the core network via IP links. Significant technological and implementation challenges remain but 5G has potential to greatly enhance mobile connectivity.
5G networks will require new architectures and algorithms to achieve the high speeds and low latencies required. Massive MIMO with hundreds of antennas enables high-gain beamforming through narrow beams. Hybrid beamforming partitions beamforming between digital and RF domains to reduce costs. Behavioral simulation allows evaluation of antenna array and algorithm interactions to optimize performance.
This document discusses the evolution from 4G LTE networks to 5G networks. It outlines the economic and technical drivers requiring the development of 5G, including the need for higher broadband speeds, improved quality of services like VR and 3D video, and connectivity for billions more IoT devices. 5G will fulfill three main use cases - enhanced broadband, massive machine communications, and ultra-reliable low latency communications. Realizing 5G's full potential will depend on new network architectures like network slicing, virtualization, and edge computing. 5G will also enable novel applications across many industries and require new ownership and business models for networks.

The webinar concluded by outlining how Martello can help organizations both today and prepare for 5G's future.
The document discusses key technology enablers for 5G networks, including 5G radio, ultra dense heterogeneous networks, mobile edge computing, network function virtualization, software defined networking, network slicing, and internet of things. The objectives of 5G include supporting peak data rates of 10Gbps, guaranteed rates of 50Mbps, latency of 1ms for radio access and 5ms end-to-end, high mobility up to 500km/hr, location accuracy of less than a meter, and connectivity for over 1 million devices per square kilometer. 5G aims to enable a wide range of new applications through these advanced capabilities.
Interesting Whitepaper from #HCLTECH, though a bit old (2016) but good for beginners on 5G and introductory know-how about 5G start with IMT2020. Informative insights.
5G will enable new capabilities for both consumers and enterprises through technological advancements like massive MIMO, beamforming, and network slicing. It promises to deliver 10x greater bandwidth per connection, low latency, extremely high reliability, and expanded coverage. However, achieving these goals will require significant investment from operators to deploy more cells and backhaul. While 5G can initially provide differentiation, its full capabilities may become standardized over time, reducing opportunities for operators to differentiate based on technical features alone. This creates business challenges around justifying the high costs of 5G networks and maintaining profitable operations in a highly competitive market.
5G networks will require architectural changes to support new capabilities and use cases. Key changes include adopting a cloud-native architecture with network softwarization using NFV, SDN, and network slicing. This will allow the network to be controlled by software and separated into multiple virtual networks. The 5G radio access network architecture will also change with the introduction of cloud-RAN to replace distributed base stations and reduce small cell deployment costs. Network slicing will enable logical isolation of network resources to provide different services on the same physical network, such as enterprise, OTT, and MVNO services.
This document discusses the challenges of traditional copper-based enterprise networks and proposes an alternative converged fiber solution called Corning ONE. Traditional networks use copper for local connections, which has limitations in terms of bandwidth, distance, power consumption, and costs of upgrades. They also struggle to support new technologies such as distributed antenna systems (DAS) for cellular networks. The Corning ONE solution uses passive optical networking to replace copper with single-mode fiber for connectivity throughout the network, providing benefits such as higher bandwidth, longer distances, lower power usage, and easier upgrades to support new standards and technologies.
The road-to-5 g-the-inevitable-growth-of-infrastructure-costAurelio Machado
1) Mobile network operators will need to significantly increase infrastructure investments between 2020-2025 to support growing data demand and deploy 5G networks. This is estimated to double total network costs during this period.
2) To enable 5G and meet the higher performance standards required, operators will need to invest across all network domains including acquiring new spectrum, upgrading the radio access network with small cells and fiber backhaul, and evolving the core network.
3) While operators can initially upgrade existing 4G networks, they will eventually need to build new macro sites and deploy many small cells, especially in dense urban areas, which will be the primary driver of rising infrastructure costs on the road to 5G.

Mobintec Ltd is a UK-based telecommunications consulting firm founded in 2002 by industry and academic professionals. It provides independent consulting services and expertise to network operators, service providers, vendors, and government bodies on a wide range of wireless and wired technologies. Mobintec supports the transition to 5G networks, which will deliver higher data rates, lower latency, and greater connectivity than previous generations of wireless technology. However, realizing the full potential of 5G faces challenges related to meeting diverse service requirements, making sufficient spectrum available, and establishing new business models that lower total cost of ownership. Future wireless networks may involve greater spectrum sharing, cross-industry partnerships, and a shift away from exclusive spectrum ownership by telecommunications providers.
5G networks will provide vastly increased capabilities over 4G networks. 5G is expected to deliver peak data rates of up to 10 Gbps, end-to-end latencies of 1 ms or less, connectivity for at least 1 million devices per square kilometer, and network energy efficiency improvements of up to 90%. However, 5G networks are still in development and large-scale commercial deployments are not expected until around 2020. In the meantime, 4G networks are being enhanced through technologies like LTE-Advanced, VoLTE, and WiFi calling to help meet some 5G requirements and enable new applications and use cases.

Setting the 5G agenda: 5G Timing
•There is a general recognition that 5G is targeting commercial deployment beyond 2020
•There are also national / regional pressures to demonstrate capability for flagship events such as the Korean 2018 Winter Olympics and the Tokyo 2020 Summer Olympics
•That said, if the timescales of previous generations which had much simpler objectives were to be repeated, then commercial launch in 2020 is a seriously aggressive goal
•However, for the time being, 2020 is the date motivating 5G research

Six predictions for wireless broadband 2020
1.No new worldwide allocations of mmWave spectrum
2.Cellular will extend into the ISM band at 60 GHz (Unlicensed access)
3.The importance of UE antennas will finally be recognized
4.WLAN will become an equal partner with cellular
5.Without technical breakthrough, the operator business case will not support a massive expansion in capacity
6.The success of 802.11ad will determine the likelihood of cellular at mmWave frequencies
31
31. Page
1. No new worldwide allocations of mmWave spectrum
•One of the yet to be addressed challenges for 5G is where potential mmWave spectrum might be found
•The last time the ITU Worlds Radio Council allocated spectrum for wireless communications was 2007, there was no debate at WRC 2012.
•In 2015 there is an agenda item for communications below 6 GHz but no guarantee for any new allocations
•There is not yet an agenda item agreed for WRC 2018/9 to discuss potential mmWave allocations
•Existing spectrum holders from military, Broadcast, Satellite industries are acting together to prevent further release to mobile broadband
32
32. Page
2. Cellular will extend into the ISM band at 60 GHz (Unlicensed access)
•Release 13 will study the operation of LTE in unlicensed spectrum (LTE-U) - in particular the 5 GHz ISM band used for WLAN
•This is to enable operators to offload traffic to LTE femtocells without having to implement WLAN thus avoiding inter-RAT challenges
•Proposals are controversial since standard LTE interferes with WLAN
•LTE is shown to be more efficient - but WLAN was there first
•Modifications to the LTE air interface are proposed to make co-existence with WLAN more tolerable (e.g. Listen Before Talk – LBT)
•Likely to become the single biggest increase of cellular spectrum (up to 680 MHz in 5 GHz band) since the allocations given at WRC 07.
•If successful at 5 GHz, likely to be extended to the 60 GHz ISM band as the quickest way for 5G to get spectrum
33

5. Without technical breakthrough, the operator business case will not support a massive expansion in capacity
