Live Webinar: 12th April 2022 | 10-11am UK This webinar aims to clarify why there is a requirement for interconnecting legacy LMR technologies with 4G/5G systems, and explain the steps taken by 3GPP and the relevant LMR Standards Authorities to facilitate interworking.  It will also highlight some of the challenges associated with interconnecting networks possessing operational and functional requirements, and service limitations, that are so different. Topics include: Interconnecting Networks 3GPP Interworking Function (IWF) Interfaces Functions to be Supported via IWF LTE to ETSI TETRA Interworking Interworking Security LTE to ATIS/TIA P25 and Analogue FM Interworking P25 Inter-RF Subsystem Interface LTE to...

Join our team of telecoms technology experts for these free training webinars. Each 1-hour webinar delivers a thorough introduction to the topic and includes a live Q&A. 4G to 5G Evolution This webinar outlines the key areas of 4G evolution to 5G, whilst exploring the likely impact on the overall cellular system. Date:  23 May-22 (10am UK) Speaker: Tony Wakefield Register here Achieving Low Latency in 5G  Starting with the requirements and performance targets, this talk explores how low latency (and ultra-low latency) is achieved in 5G from a technical perspective.  Date:  10 Jun-22 (10am UK) Speaker: Tony Wakefield Register here IoT Enablers in the 5G System...

Recorded: 8th March 2022 Private telecommunication networks can be deployed by business enterprises to support a wide variety of commercial use cases, with far greater flexibility than fixed networks, and a performance that is far superior to WiFi. The number of private network rollouts has been rapidly growing, driven by the increased availability of radio spectrum, and by the introduction of explicit support for private networks in 5G. This webinar examines the market for private telecommunication networks, the acquisition of radio spectrum, and the implementation of private networks using 5G. Topics covered include the following: Topics include: Drivers for Private Networks...

Recorded: 28th February 2022 The 5G standards support many different use cases and deployment scenarios using a wide range of techniques and design principles. In turn, these support diverse network capabilities and performance centred on attributes such as data rates, capacity, latency, energy use, user density, reliability, and security. In order to map these capabilities to the use cases in a way that maximises overall efficiency and cost effectiveness, the concept of the “Network Slice” has been introduced. It allows for a range of “capability sets” or “virtual networks” (supporting different use cases, deployment scenarios, or even different customers) to...

Webinar Recorded: 13th October 2021 The Service Based Architecture (SBA), standardised as part of 5G, represents a paradigm shift in the way the telecoms core network is planned, deployed, and operated. Using virtualisation principles, the SBA provides a more flexible, efficient, and capable set of features – provided by the different Network Functions in the form of NF “Services”. SBA techniques can also be applied to 4G, and if adopted early, would enable a smooth transition to the 5G Core.This talk examines the principles of the SBA, before looking in more detail at the architecture, network functions, protocols, and operation. We also...
