Lighting the Path to 5G
• This will vary carrier to carrier and region to region
• Some elements will evolve from 4G and some will be radically new
• Early adopters may rollout components in 2017/2018 with mainstream starting 2020
When
Why
• Meet the market demand for the continued growth in mobile services as
they evolve
• Coverage and Capacity to support increasing need for mobile broadband
• IoT applications: massive M2M and mission critical – connecting everything
What
• An automated programmable E2E network – self-config, self-optimize, self-heal
• Flexible ultra-dense networks with slicing, cloudification, decentralized,
massive scale
• New business models – Network as a Service, New carrier entrants
How
• Operating, Managing and Optimizing the network will be radically different
• Virtualized sensors and agents to capture intelligence and automate decisions
• Self-management closed loop context-aware reacting in real-time

• New business models
• Self-configuration, self-optimization, self-healing
• An automated programmable E2E network
• Cloud-based, virtualized solutions
• Extreme network non-uniformity: 1%
of subscribers and locations generate
50% of network traffic
• Communications verticals and IoT
applications have widely diverse
connectivity/performance requirements
• Networks continue to get more complex,
more dense, more distributed with
intelligence at the edge
• You still need to support the networks of today
