This article documents one of the world's first standards-compliant pre-commercial end-to-end 5th generation (5G) systems. Focus is on a standardized 5G architecture which includes the underlying 3GPP components but also the ETSI Network…

Next-generation systems are anticipated to be digital platforms supporting innovative services with rapidly changing traffic patterns. To cope with this dynamicity in a cost-efficient manner, operators need advanced service management…

The provision of services by more than one operator over a common network infrastructure, as enabled by 5G network slicing, is analyzed. Two business models to be implemented by a network operator, who owns the network, and a virtual…

The advent of novel 5G services and applications with binding latency requirements and guaranteed Quality of Service (QoS) hastened the need to incorporate autonomous and proactive decision-making in network management procedures. The…

In order to meet the increasing demands of high data rate and low latency cellular broadband applications, plans are underway to roll out the Fifth Generation (5G) cellular wireless system by the year 2020. This paper proposes a novel…

Network function virtualization is a promising technology to simultaneously support multiple services with diverse characteristics and requirements in the fifth generation and beyond networks. In practice, each service consists of a…

Recent studies showed that network slices (NSs), which are logical networks supported by shared physical networks, can experience service interference due to sharing of physical and virtual resources. Thus, from the perspective of providing…

The fifth generation of communication technology (5G) revolutionizes mobile networks and the associated ecosystems through the integration of cross-domain networks. Network slicing is an enabling technology for 5G as it provides dynamic,…

To implement the next Generation NodeBs (gNBs) that are present in every Radio Access Network (RAN) slice subnet, Network Function Virtualization (NFV) enables the deployment of some of the gNB components as Virtual Networks Functions…

Mobile networks are embracing disaggregation, reflected by the industry trend towards Open RAN. Private 5G networks are viewed as particularly suitable contenders as early adopters of Open RAN, owing to their setting, high degree of…
