1 7 5G TESTING The 3 primary use cases identified by IMT 2020 eMBB URLLC and mMTC also drive the need for different ways to measure QoE especially in the RAN Expanded test methodologies are needed that include new parameters that incorporate higher frequencies and wider bandwidths accounting for machine tomachine communications As 5G networks grow to support applications like connected cars network performance will become absolutely crucial Delay jitter and other network issues can literally have disastrous results so testing of 5G QoE needs to be verifiably traced and transparent to certified international standards bodies as opposed to proprietary NEM specifications or techniques Work in Progress Given the enormous frequency range and high bandwidth services inherent to 5G technology standardization of best practices will continue to progress as the technology tools and applications develop Without question there remains a great deal to be done before standards bodies will finalize their work on 5G and both service providers and vendors are diligently working with industry organizations to develop strategies for the long term success of 5G networks The reality is that standards bodies play a vital role in providing a neutral place in the ecosystem including test and measurement vendors to collaborate and ensure that mission critical applications on 5G networks are developed built and deployed safely and securely for individuals communities and enterprises n Resources and Notes 5G Test Measurement and Assurance VIAVI https www viavisolutions com en us 5g testing Kashif Hussain is the Wireless Solutions Director for VIAVI Solutions He has more than 20 years of experience in mobile networking and wireless technology Follow VIAVI Solutions on Twitter @ ViaviSolutions For more information please visit https www viavisolutions com en us 5g testing A Aerial has serviced the Communications Construction Industry since 1984 Products include Fiber Blowers Fiber Pullers Lashers Pole Line and Underground materials Featuring products from GMP Condux Maclean OshKosh Alumaform Bashlin Ripley RKI Gas Testers Jameson Tools Hubbell Dura Line Allegro Klein Tools Milwaukee Tools and many more AERIAL UNDERGROUND TOOLS MATERIALS Click or Call Today www linemen tools com TOOLS AERIAL HARDWARE D E C E M B E R 2 0 1 9
