How 5G network slicing works: part 2

1 week ago | 5gtechnologyworld.com | Aharon Etengoff

Network slicing, which makes private networks possible, provides enterprises with dedicated network resources. It works by interacting with a set of network functions. Part 1 of this series covered how 5G network slicing enables operators to deploy, modify, and scale customized virtual networks, along with key slicing techniques and connectivity models.
Overcome Open RAN test and certification challenges

1 week ago | 5gtechnologyworld.com | Ian Y Wong |Martin Rowe

LaaS Testing can streamline deployment and enhance efficiency for reliable Open RANThe race to build 5G networks has gone on for several years, extending coverage and providing access to advanced services. Initiatives such as Open RAN make for high-performing, robust, and agile mobile infrastructures that are in the interest of consumers and businesses, as well as the wider economy.
OFC 2025: Interoperability demos

2 weeks ago | 5gtechnologyworld.com | Martin Rowe

The Ethernet Alliance and Optical Networking Forum featured interoperability demonstrations at data rates up to 800 Gbps. San Francisco — With so many companies and products comprising the optical networking ecosystem, interoperability is paramount. All those semiconductors, optical modules, switches, routers, servers, test equipment, and the software that makes them function must first provide their compliance to standards and then prove themselves in real-world situations.
How 5G network slicing works: part 1

2 weeks ago | 5gtechnologyworld.com | Aharon Etengoff

Network slicing, which makes private networks possible, provides enterprises with dedicated network resources. It works by interacting with a set of network functions. The 3GPP defines network slicing as a core 5G feature. It partitions a single physical network into multiple virtual network slices. Each slice operates as an independent end-to-end network optimized for specific applications and services.
How does mobile edge computing work?

3 weeks ago | 5gtechnologyworld.com | Jeff Shepard

Mobile edge computing (MEC), also called multi-access edge computing or simply multi-access computing, is part of the confluence of the Internet of Things (IoT) and mobile devices. MEC doesn’t mean processing data on mobile devices. MEC simply processes data closer to its origin. Instead of sending data to the cloud, MEC utilizes edge computing resources like nearby servers or cell towers.
Sequans announces production of latest LTE module

4 weeks ago | 5gtechnologyworld.com | Redding Traiger

Sequans announces that its Cassiopeia CA410 module will enter mass production in the first week of April 2025. This LTE Cat 4 module has secured certifications with Southern Linc and Anterix, and complies with CBRS requirements, underscoring its readiness for deployment across diverse utility applications. In addition to the Anterix’s 900 MHz spectrum and the CBRS band, the CA410 module supports all North American public LTE bands.
How does a 5G core work?

1 month ago | 5gtechnologyworld.com | Jeff Shepard

A 5G core (5GC) provides the central control and management for a 5G network. It roughly corresponds with the Evolved Packet Core (EPC) that supports converged voice and data services on a 4G Long-Term Evolution (LTE) network. The 4G EPC is a flat architecture using point-to-point connectivity and is limited in scalability. The 5GC is cloud native and is a service-based architecture (SBA). The use of the cloud supports independent network functions (NFs) in the form of containerized microservices.
What is the 5G protocol stack?

1 month ago | 5gtechnologyworld.com | Jeff Shepard

The 5G protocol stack is the architecture of protocols within a 5G network that perform specific functions like managing data transmission, error correction, and resource allocation. It exists as two separate elements: the control plane (CP) and the user plane (UP). It’s more complex than the 4G protocol stack due to the numerous advanced features and technologies added in 5G.
FAQ on the Butler matrix for beamforming: part 2

1 month ago | 5gtechnologyworld.com | Bill Schweber

This passive beamforming topology is not well known but is widely used – a common situation in the RF world. Part 1 was an introduction to the electronic steering of an antenna beam and the Butler matrix; this part continues the investigation. Q: The Butler passive arrangement seems simpler; why not use it in all cases? A: A Butler matrix represents a passive, beamforming-feed network for phased-array antenna elements.
