A Workflow for Onboarding Verticals on 5G/NFV Experimental Network Facility

摘要

5G is a major technology in creating and enhancing industry use cases such as autonomous driving, immersive gaming, remote robotic surgery and augmented reality. Vertical industries have addressed their connectivity and communication needs with dedicated or industry specific solutions. The European initiative 5G PPP has the vision to “empower the verticals” and thus defined key 5G network KPIs that can be accessed and used by vertical industries. This paper proposes a workflow that prepares a vertical towards seamless onboarding on a target experimental 5G network facility with the goal to access and validate 5G KPIs.
