Transport network support of IMT-2020/5G (October 2018)
In this issue
Mobile traffic directed onto transport networks has specific requirements in support of IMT-200/5G networks. Transport Network Support of IMT-2020/5G (October 2018) outlines those requirements with reference to 5G wireless architecture, the synchronization distribution architecture, interfaces, management and control, multi-service support, and the support of 5G slicing in the transport network. The report addresses the evolution of wireless transport architecture from 4G to 5G, synchronization requirements, and capacity, latency and network-reach requirements. Additionally, the report offers a set of deployment scenarios for those making the transition to 5G wireless architecture.
