B. 5G Interfacing Options
In order to facilitate migration toward 5G, NGMN foresees
that LTE/ LTE-Advanced and Wi-Fi, as well as their evolution,
should be supported by the new 5G network design. Thus, the
access-agnostic network functions should accommodate any
new RATs, as well as LTE/ LTE-Advanced, Wi-Fi and their
evolution. This way, the network function design can fully
benefit from the new technologies without backward
compatibility constraints, and still would allow operators to
benefit from the new design using existing radio deployments.
VI. CONCLUSION
5G will expand the capabilities of the network far beyond
what is possible today, exploiting the latest technologies both
in the radio and network domains. This will enable various use
cases that will transform the society for better productivity,
sustainability and well-being. To support divergence of use
cases and business models in an efficient manner, the
foundational 5G system will need to support on demand
composition of network functions and capabilities, thereby
creating 5G network slices utilizing the same 5G infrastructure.
While the foundational technologies, design principles and
basic concepts to achieve such a system in 5G were
summarized in this paper, 5G should leverage an eco-system
that is truly global, free of fragmentation and open for
innovations. The industry is called to develop a single 5G
standard based on the principles of open and global standards.
The goal of NGMN is to make commercial 5G systems
fulfill the NGMN requirements. To realize this goal, NGMN
will continue to develop on the requirements and concepts,
e.g., consolidation, prioritization, and documentation, and
closely communicate with the relevant stakeholders to ensure
availability of 5G by 2020.
