Network Slicing in 5G
TPR1027d | On-Demand | 5G Core | 2
Course Duration: 4 hours
Network slicing is one of key components that provide logical virtual network slices to support diversified services like mobile broadband, massive IoT, and ultra-reliable low latency services by leveraging the technology of SDN and NFV. This course provides an overview of Network slicing across Core, RAN and Transport networks in 5G, its operation and deployment. The course also provides an insight into how Network slicing in 5G works better as compared to techniques used in 4G LTE.
Intended Audience
A high-level technical overview to personnel involved in product management, marketing, planning, design, engineering, and operations
