Focused functionality

Focus on eMBB and Ultra Reliable Low Latency (URLLC)


• Basic physical layer capabilities for URLLC
Variety of spectrum bands and band combinations (next slide)
• Ever growing number of bands and combinations
• Low band for coverage, Mid band for capacity, High band for ultra-
densification
Uplink sharing between LTE and 5G
Operators whose request is included in the frequency
Frequency ranges for NR
range
1710-1785MHz (UL)/3.3-4.2 GHz (DL&UL) NOTE1 China Telecom, China Unicom, CMCC, Deutsche Telekom
832-862MHz (UL)/3.3-4.2 GHz (DL&UL) NOTE1 Orange, Telefonica, Etisalat, Deutsche Telekom

703-748MHz (UL)/3.3-4.2 GHz (DL&UL) NOTE1 Orange, Telefonica, Etisalat
NOTE1: The exact frequency range around 3.5GHz may be revised during R15 NR WI
NOTE2: The LTE-NR dual connectivity UE RF requirements with the same frequency ranges can be reused as the
©starting point for the above NR paired band.

Modular RAN architecture

Split Fronthaul with a standardized interface between Central Unit (CU) and
Distributed Unit (DU)

Split Control Plan and User Plane to allow separate dimensioning

 Added flexibility for operators

 Add Slicing -> ready to expand

Timeline

Targeting full IMT2020 capability


• System level URLLC support, including critical IoT
• Expanding beyond 42.5 GHz bands and into unlicensed
bands
• Alternative non-orthogonal access schemes
• Vehicular and Satellite

Internet of Things (IoT)

3GPP is making continuous effort to address the IoT market:

1. LTE-M LTE-based Machine Type Communications (1MHz bandwidth)


Higher data rates, VoLTE support, mobility, multicast, positioning

2. NB-IOT NarrowBand-IoT radio added to the LTE platform


Optimized for Low Power Wide Area
Several power classes, positioning support

5G will address the following segments


• Critical MTC with Ultra Reliability and Low Latency
• Massive MTC – is expected later

Vehicular Communications

3GPP is expanding the LTE platform to support V2X apps

Pedestrian
V2X will include two complementary transmission modes
• Direct communication
Vehicle Network
• High density, synchronization and low latency
• Network communication
• Broadcast from a V2X server to vehicles and beyond V2P

V2V V2I
5G to address potential add-on capabilities
• Low latency and high reliability
Vehicle
• High data rate
• Spectrum above 6 GHz (e.g., 63-64GHz allocated for ITS in
Europe), efficient V2X carrier aggregation
• Advanced positioning

Unlicensed spectrum

Licensed spectrum remains 3GPP operators’ top priority to


deliver advanced services and user experience
Use of unlicensed spectrum will be an important complement
to meet the growing traffic demand
Currently operators have 2 options to offload traffic to
unlicensed spectrum
1. Wi-Fi (via LTE/Wi-Fi interworking)
2. Unlicensed LTE Access aggregation with a Licensed LTE carrier (LAA)
5G will add the capability to support Standalone Unlicensed
Access
• Expected in Release-16 (target Dec/2019)

Satellite and High Altitude Platforms

3GPP will address enhancing 5G for non-terrestrial networks


• Extending the reach to areas that cannot be optimally covered by
terrestrial 5G network.
• 5G service reliability and resiliency for public safety systems
• Connectivity on board airborne vehicles (e.g. air flight passengers,
UASs/drones, etc.), other moving platforms (vessels, trains)

Summary

3GPP will deliver 5G standards as planned…


… but needs industry consensus on the exact functionality…

5G’s true success will depend on successfully


expanding the wireless ecosystem

Architecture expansion is a key vehicle
