What You Will Learn
5G System Engineering
- 12 Hours
5G is the next enhancement in mobile communications. This course, aligned to 3GPP Release 17, introduces 5G technology from an end to end, architectural and operational perspective. In so doing, the 5G System architecture is examined in detail, both from a Non Standalone and Standalone perspective. The course then takes a “day in the life” approach to the 5G device, detailing typical activities such as Registration, Security, PDU Session Establishment and Mobility.

5G and Transport Networks
- 4 Hours
The continued rollout of 5G is having a very significant impact on the packet transport networks required to support the technology. This course seeks to clarify the key areas which must be considered when dimensioning the transport network, with focus on factors related to the radio and NG-RAN, as well as other areas such as Network Slicing and MEC. The course will then provide an overview of the packet transport technologies being used today, examining the use of OTN, Ethernet and MPLS.

Introduction to 5G and Cloud Computing
- 3 Hours
5G is a technology which is heavily dependent on cloud based technology to support its operation, with cloud technology influencing many different aspects of 5G network operation, on an end to end basis. This course seeks to introduce some of the key concepts behind cloud, including foundational level information on exactly what the cloud is, as well as some of the key enabling technologies such as NFV, SDN, microservices, containers and Kubernetes. Focus will then be provided on application use cases of the technology, covering the 5G Core, C-RAN and MEC.

Analyzing the 5G Core
- 18 Hours
Building on the foundation of 5G System Engineering, this course provides a detailed examination of the 5G Core Network. Key emphasis is placed on the Service Based network architecture, as well as the main network procedures that occur during a mobile’s typical interactivity with the 5G network. Analysis of the 5G Registration, PDU Session establishment, PDU Session usage, Policy Control , MEC, 4G Interworking and network slicing will be provided as part of this process.
