Course Review

This 5G training course introduces the audience into the existing 5G NR NSA and SA architectures, emphasizing on the network transformation to properly accommodate the transformation from NSA to SA deployment. It explains the NSA architecture, the 5G core transformation from 5G EPC to 5GC, the 5G RAN evolution from centralized NR RAN architectures to virtual RAN architectures and the final network topology deployment. The transport network topology is also discussed with emphasis on back-haul deployment. The course is purely theoretical based on slide presentations.
