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. 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.

The nature of 5G means that the security architecture and processes need to cover new aspects (when compared to previous 3GPP generations), including 5GNR/LTE Dual Connectivity, standardized interfaces for distributed gNB / RAN architectures, more tightly integrated Non-3GPP Access, and most significantly, the new Service Based Interfaces used within the 5G Core. The 5G Security course provides a comprehensive grounding in this expanded set of security requirements and mechanisms used in 5G. We start by considering the 5G architecture in order to better understand the overall security requirements for both the UE and network. We then build on the security architecture of 4G LTE, with relevant modifications and additions required for 5G, before focusing squarely on the additional features and procedures required to secure the 5G Core Network (Service Based Interface). Who would benefit This course is designed for engineers, managers and other personnel who have a need to acquire a technical overview of the security environment employed within 5G networks. It will also be of benefit to those in the wider technical community who have a need to understand the security protocols employed by advanced cellular networks. Prerequisites An understanding of 4G (and legacy 2G and 3G) security procedures would be an advantage as would a basic understanding of 5G and / or LTE network architecture and functionality.
