Grab the 5G! Ericsson launches 5G end-to-end commercial products

The 5G standard is still under development, and major manufacturers have started research and development of related products. On the eve of MWC2017 (World Mobile Conference), Ericsson announced the launch of end-to-end 5G commercial products covering core network, transmission network and wireless access. It is reported that Ericsson is the first in the world to launch end-to-end 5G commercial products. .

According to the relevant plans of 3GPP, the first version of the 5G standard will be launched in 2017, and the complete standard will need to be determined by 2019; in China, the IMT-2020 (5G) promotion group plans to conduct 5G technology R&D tests in 2017. The product development test will not be launched until 2018.

There is no doubt that Ericsson's 5G commercial products have been released before the standard dust settled.

True end-to-end 5G commercial products

Compared with 4G, 5G can bring about 1000 times capacity increase, 100 times bandwidth growth and short-to-millisecond delay, which can meet the needs of large-scale physical and physical communication, and conform to the trend of communication application scenarios moving to massive data applications. Therefore, it is expected to create a new "blue ocean" market for operators. For the size of this “blue ocean” market, Ericsson expects to be 582 billion US dollars by 2026. With the deployment of 5G technology by telecom operators, digital technology will flourish and 5G will be global in 2026. Manufacturing a market value of $582 billion, for operators, means an increase of 34% in revenue.

In order to seize the 5G market opportunity, the world's major operators have not been able to wait for the ITU's estimated 2020 5G commercial time point: Verizon plans to commercialize 5G in some cities in 2017, and Korea KT will launch 5G pre-commercial test in early 2018 to support Pyeongchang Winter Olympics. In China, although the 5G commercial plans of the three major operators are consistent with the ITU, some 5G technologies have been applied to 4G networks in advance to improve the performance of 4G networks. Because the transition from 4G to 5G is not achievable overnight, but requires a gradual process, and the best time to start this transition is perhaps the moment.

Ericsson's end-to-end 5G commercial products are designed to meet the needs of 5G pioneers. "4G to 5G will undergo a revolutionary evolution, and it will take some time from now 4G to 5G, so many operators at the forefront are already considering building 5G networks. Ericsson is the first to introduce relevant solutions to the market. There is a smooth evolution of the network to the next generation network," said THOMAS NORÉN, vice president and head of network products at Ericsson Group.

It is reported that Ericsson's new 5G platform includes 5G core network, wireless and transmission product portfolio, as well as digital support systems, transformation services and security systems. It is a true end-to-end 5G product.

Most importantly, Ericsson has ensured that the product can fully support future 5G technologies through a number of forward-looking designs. This means that operators will not need to purchase new hardware until the 5G standardization technology is developed. Support for future 5G through software upgrades based on hardware products. This not only enhances the network capabilities of operators, but also reduces unnecessary investment by operators at this stage.

Introduced network slicing technology to support full frequency band and eCPRI standard

Ericsson's complete 5G products include core network, transmission network and wireless access. From the perspective of the core network, network slicing for allocating appropriate resources for different services is the key to 5G. In this regard, Ericsson has launched a 5G core network system based on network slicing and supporting 5G use cases. With network slicing, operators can provide a dedicated virtual network on a public network to provide specific functionality to a service or a customer. According to THOMAS NORÉN, Ericsson is the first company to be prepared for the future 5G on the core network side.

It is reported that network segmentation can automate service connection setup, ensure service quality, save costs, and speed up service listing. The 5G policy and user data of network slicing can ensure users can obtain appropriate service quality and data integrity. It is worth mentioning that Ericsson also introduced 5G roaming joint network slicing technology, extending this concept to the visited network, enabling operators to provide global network services, ensuring that enterprises can obtain global services without signing agreements with individual operators. Experience. For example, in the recent successful cooperation between Ericsson, Deutsche Telekom and SK Telecom, the three parties jointly created and demonstrated the world's first intercontinental 5G trial network, which can be used in each other's networks.

In addition, network function virtualization is also the only way to evolve the 5G core network. Ericsson introduced NFV and SDN for networking and programmable management, bringing super-scalability, programmability and automation to the network.

According to THOMAS NORÉN, at the wireless access level, Ericsson has expanded its support for IF and HF and introduced new 5GNR devices based on the world's first 5G NR radio base station, the AIR6488, launched last year. Correspondingly, Ericsson introduced a more advanced multi-antenna technology, from the previous 64 transceivers to 512 transceivers. Because the new wireless device can be used in all frequency ranges, it can support more carrier choices, so it can provide users with a better communication experience.

On the transmission side, Ericsson also considered support for the latest prequel standards. THOMAS NORÉN said that after the arrival of the 5G era, the network structure will undergo revolutionary changes, more processing resources will be transferred to the antenna side, and the increase in bandwidth will make the pre-transmission network face greater challenges. In response to this situation, the major vendors led by Ericsson, Huawei, Nokia and NEC are currently researching a new generation of pre-transmission structures and developing the next-generation pre-event standard eCPRI. It is reported that the current eCPRI standard is about to be finalized. Compared with the previous cPRI standard, eCPRI can support 5 to 10 times the advancement capability.

According to THOMAS NORÉN, Ericsson's latest 5G end-to-end commercial products support the eCPRI standard, and Ericsson is the only one that currently supports the eCPRI standard.
