INTRODUCING NETWORK-BASED SERVICES

whitePaper | February 27, 2023

The future is digital, and the race is on. Businesses across the world are approaching a crucial juncture where those who have the ability to adapt their operations to a rapidly evolving landscape will have the edge over their competitors. The number of devices communicating across the network has been growing exponentially, but that number is about to explode as the Internet of Things (IoT) continues to become a reality. As a result, it has never been more important to ensure that the edge of a business’ network is robust, secure and can be upgraded with the speed needed to capitalise on changing business environments.

5G is gathering momentum at a pace not experienced with legacy technologies such as 3G and 4G. In fact, a growing number of operators that have existing LTE networks have now launched 5G, according to the GSA. We’ve already seen a great deal of investment in 5G, and we’ll see a growing number of operators targeting the enterprise market to support applications in agriculture, manufacturing, automotive and healthcare. It is anticipated that an acceleration of 5G roll-out will take place throughout 2020, particularly with non-standalone (NSA) designed to work with existing 4G networks.

As they deploy 5G, telecoms operators around the world are experimenting with cloud¬native core networks, which offer greater flexibility, scalability and automation than conventional telecoms networks. This paper explores how telecoms operators could go about implementing a cloud¬native 5G core network. Most early movers are taking one of two approaches to deploy a cloud¬native 5G core:

The pandemic crisis has highlighted the need to transform healthcare, reduce inequalities in access to medical care, and provide a more personalized and humane experience. Patients and caregivers have recognized the convenience and effectiveness of telehealth during the crisis. In addition, the health sector is accelerating the digitalization of its services and transforming its hospitals into smart hospitals. Medical records are now stored electronically, and the sector is using an increasing number of IoT devices, which are inherently unsecure. However, this transformation exposes healthcare providers to significant data breaches and growing cybersecurity risks while they must demonstrate compliance to standards that protect sensitive health information such as HIPAA

Wireless telecommunications technology has undergone a tremendous evolution in the last few decades, from making simple phone calls (1G) and sending text messages (2G), to connecting to highspeed internet (3G) and providing multimedia and entertainment services (4G). Futuristic technologies such as remote robotics and virtual reality are emerging quickly and are likely to see mass adoption, while 4G cellular networks have reached capacity limits and are incapable of supporting the uninterrupted operations of these services. It is estimated that data will reach 175 zettabytes worldwide by 2025, up from 1.2 zettabytes in 2010, when 4G was first being deployed globally. 5G therefore provides a much-needed mobile bandwidth infrastructure for a world of connected objects and smarter cities.

One of the overarching goals of the ETSI Industry Specification Group (ISG) F5G on Fifth Generation Fixed Network is to establish a regular rhythm of evolution for the fixed telecommunications network. This technology enhancement corresponds to the series of generations defined for the wireless network. So far, F5G has published technical specifications on use cases, generations definition of fibre networks, architecture, and more. As it continues, these documents will be enhanced and revised to describe the fifth generation of fixed networks more fully. Therefore, we need to consider the evolution of F5G. This White Paper describes the drivers, dimensions, and technologies of the F5G advanced and beyond.
