Test & Measurement Forum

Delivering on QoE and Performance of 5G and 5G Advanced Networks

As networks continue to evolve from classical, monolithic architectures to cloud-native, disaggregated networks, the way we test networks needs to evolve too in this more software-centric environment, to ensure that new 5G-specific services can be guaranteed for end users.

Join the Test & Measurement Forum on April 30th to explore the latest innovation in testing next-gen networks - from lab and manufacturing testing to field network testing and service assurance.

Panel: Delivering on QoE for the next wave of 5G - the critical role of testing

Time: 9:35 AM - 10:15 AM EDT

Stakeholders will come together to discuss the challenges and solutions to overcome network complexities and a new operating environment:

• With the shift towards highly software-centric networks and the skills required to manage such networks, what are test and measurement providers doing to bridge that gap?
• What new solutions are being developed to help support carriers deliver guaranteed SLAs and private network solutions?
• Transitioning to 5G SA and the role of RedCap
• Dealing with issues of latency and delivering seamless connectivity
• Network densification, beamforming and massive MIMO, network slicing considerations
• New spectrum bands and open architectures - innovation in test to overcome operational challenges
• End to end test solutions for holistic network management

Presentation: Service assurance in the era of 5G, cloud, edge, and AI

Time: 12:35 PM - 12:55 PM EDT

As the initial investment phase in 5G concludes for numerous carriers, the focus is shifting towards monetizing this technology through offering innovative services and optimizing network performance. The successful integration of service assurance is pivotal in leveraging the full potential of 5G and the cloudification of network functions.

Key highlights of this session include:

• Reengineering assurance platforms to cope with exponential traffic growth
• Preparing for orchestrated networks and closed loop fault resolution
• Accelerating the introduction of new services such as slicing, private 5G, and fixed-wireless
