Description
This 5G Network Slicing course examines 5G network slicing and those topics that impact and drive slice strategy.
Service and Industry requirements are explored, as well as use case performance objectives. Technical aspects of 5G slice operation are followed by an appraisal of the techniques available to map the requirements onto a practical slice. A generic slice template, and associated attributes, are then used to generate an example slice specification. Finally, practical slice deployment and management options are investigated. Examples are used throughout.
Note – Although standard slice identities have been specified, slicing defines a set of techniques that enable operators to differentiate their service offerings. Hence, any “standard” slice templates should be considered as a proprietary solution. This course does NOT attempt to build or provide any such standard slice templates, but will enable participants to better assess slice strategy and evaluate specific solutions.
This 5G Network Slicing training course delves into the complexities of 5G network slicing and the various factors that influence slice strategy. From exploring service and industry requirements to understanding use case performance objectives, participants will gain a comprehensive overview of the technical aspects of 5G slice operation. The course also covers techniques for mapping requirements onto practical slices, creating example slice specifications using a generic template, and exploring deployment and management options. Throughout the course, real-life examples are used to enhance understanding and application.
Designed for professionals involved in the design, deployment, and commercialization of 5G networks, this course offers valuable insights into the intricacies of network slicing. While the course begins with an introduction to 5G and use case requirements, it primarily focuses on the technical aspects of network slicing. Prior experience or knowledge of the 5G system from a technical perspective would be beneficial for participants looking to maximize their learning outcomes. By the end of the course, participants will be equipped with the knowledge and skills needed to assess slice strategy and evaluate specific solutions effectively.
Topics covered in this training course include an introduction to 5G, use cases, and connectivity, an in-depth exploration of 5G slicing, and practical guidance on slice development and deployment. Participants will gain a solid understanding of network slicing principles and techniques, enabling them to make informed decisions and contribute effectively to the successful implementation of 5G networks.
Who would benefit
This course is designed for those involved in the design, deployment and commercialisation of 5G.
Prerequisites
Although we begin with an introduction to 5G and use case requirements, the course focuses on the technical aspects of network slicing, so some experience or knowledge of the 5G system from a technical perspective would be an advantage.
Topic Areas Include
- Introduction to 5G, Use Cases and Connectivity
- 5G Slicing
- Slice Development and Deployment
Optional 5G Virtual Lab Module
Explore, Test, Optimise, and Troubleshoot the 5G System
Deep dive into the key signalling scenarios in the 5G system and analyse the output to build a deeper understanding that goes beyond the theoretical. The lab is a fully emulated 5G System environment that enables you to experiment with the configurations for Network Functions and build customized settings for signalling scenarios that helps you to develop greater insight into the operation of the 5G System. Lab modules can be added to any relevant 5G course.
