Unlocking the benefits of 5G for the enterprise customer

whitePaper | April 13, 2022

5G, the fifth-generation cellular technology, is being deployed around the world. 5G is a transformational technology designed to provide significant flexibility and support a variety of use cases. This paper describes the emerging infrastructure trends of wireless networks for 4G, 5G, and beyond 5G. These trends provide even more opportunities to service providers for network deployments, network customization, and network optimization. These key trends include (i) spectrum trends, (ii) densification & coverage extension methods, (iii) virtualization and cloudification, and (iv) network customization and intelligence.

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.

The 5G vision, outlined in successive NGMN White Papers [1,2] sets out a framework for enabling digital transformation for society and across industry, with a wide range of use cases and associated requirements. Commercial deployments of 5G are now progressing around the globe, delivering new capabilities and improved performance for customers. For Mobile Network Operators (MNOs), a set of features that underpin 5G, including disaggregation, softwarization, cloud-native design and operation, autonomous and distributed computing and intelligence, and a multiaccess composable core, are enabling new technologies and business models.
