Overview

The 5G approach takes advantage of containers, virtualization, SDN and NFV. The course covers the design motivation and underlying technology of 5G service-based architecture as well as new vocabulary terms. The course covers all the details about 5G radio so participants can understand the differences between 4G and 5G. The course also enables participants to explore the 5G core in action. Sample message flows of typical 5G processes are also covered message by message as part of the course.
