“Indoor 5G Network White Paper” released

As the fifth-generation mobile communication network, 5G network has a peak theoretical transmission speed of tens of Gb per second, which is hundreds of times faster than the transmission speed of 4G network. The entire ultra-high quality movie can be downloaded within 1 second.

◊ Introduction to “Indoor 5G Network White Paper”

During the morning news on September 5th, Beijing time, during the 2018 Operational Transformation Summit (OTF 2018), Huawei and Hong Kong Telecom (HKT) and the Global Mobile Suppliers Association (GSA) released the “Indoor 5G Network White Paper” (hereinafter referred to as “White Paper”). From the 5G service requirements for indoor network, inventory network evolution, network construction strategy, etc., the indoor 5G network construction ideas are elaborated.
The “Indoor 5G Network White Paper” points out that more than 80% of the 4G mobile networks are in the room. With the continuous increase of 5G service types and the continuous expansion of industry boundaries, the industry predicts that more mobile services will occur indoors in the future. Therefore, the indoor mobile network in the 5G era is crucial and will become the high value core of operators.

♦ 5G network business analysis

Based on the five types of business characteristics of 5G, the white paper analyzes the network demand of indoor 5G services such as AR, virtual reality, high-definition video, telemedicine and intelligent manufacturing, and clearly puts forward the key indicators of indoor 5G target network. Then, closely following the index requirements of the indoor 5G target network, based on the measured data and theoretical analysis, the challenges of the indoor 5G target network construction are deeply analyzed from the aspects of indoor 5G network networking, capacity, reliability, operation and maintenance, and operation; From the aspects of networking strategy, MIMO technology selection, scheme selection, capacity planning, network reliability, network operation and maintenance, and operation, the indoor 5G target network construction strategy is proposed, which provides a good indoor 5G network construction idea for the industry.

These ideas include: the capacity strategy emphasizes flexible capacity to meet business needs flexibly, and the reliability strategy proposes reliability design for 5G services. The deployment strategy advocates end-to-end digital deployment to lay the foundation for network operation and maintenance. The network operation and maintenance strategy proposes that the indoor 5G network can be controlled and controlled through visual operation and maintenance. The network operation strategy advocates the network operation platform to support the indoor 5G network intelligent operation.

♦ White paper suggestion

Finally, the white paper proposes to use indoor digital distributed base stations above 4T4R, adopting end-to-end digital integrated deployment mode, and planning to build an indoor 5G network with large capacity density, flexible capacity scheduling, and operation and maintenance. The network operation platform realizes the intelligent operation of the indoor 5G network.
