NGMN Alliance publishes white paper on 5G requirements

2015-03-03 13:05:00| Telecompaper Headlines

(Telecompaper) The Next Generation Mobile Networks (NGMN) Alliance has released its white paper on 5G at the Mobile World Congress, outling the operator requirements intended to support the standardisation and subsequent availability of 5G by 2020. The NGNM started work on 5G last year, setting up a team of over 100 industry experts to research the white paper. The group will discuss the paper and industry developments further at a conference later this month in Frankfurt. The white paper's vision for 5G includes new use cases and business models building on the extended network capabilities of the next generation of networks. 5G networks will support much greater throughput, lower latency and higher connection density. To cope with the growing number of use cases and business models, 5G must provide a high degree of flexibility and scalability by design, the paper said. In addition, it should show foundational shifts in cost and energy efficiency. While the commercial introduction of 5G is expected to vary from operator to operator, the NGMN encourages industry players to work towards availability of global and commercial products by 2020. The NGMN said will continue to work with its partners on ensuring 5G equipment fulfils the requirements in its white paper.
