Original Title:
Ανάλυση αρχιτεκτονικής αυτόνομου και μη αυτόνομου συστήματος πέμπτης γενιάς (5G) και υλοποίηση σε cloud περιβάλλον
Translated title:
Stand alone and non-stand alone fifth generation (5G) system architecture analysis and implementation in a cloud environment
Summary:
Modern technological developments require the revision of network architecture to their satisfaction. 5G systems are a candidate technology that is expected to solve both connectivity and data traffic problems. This thesis deals with the architecture of 5G in the versions that have been launched to be implemented but also in those that are already being studied for the future, so that they can be applied in cases such as those defined by the triptych ”low latency, machine communication and broadband communications”.
Introducing the above at the beginning of the thesis, we delve into the core network which is the first of the two general entities that constitute a telecommunications system and in particular a 5G network. The cases of building such a network and interconnection between entities are analyzed. Also, in the third chapter we analyze the 5G access network in terms of communication protocols, and its operation in general, and presents its architecture and some structural features.
Innovative approaches to a 5G system make it different from previous
telecommunications networks. A number of such technologies and techniques are highlighted in the fourth chapter, which concludes with the presentation of protocols that serve the operation of the system.
The second part of the thesis, is the practical part where the steps of implementation of autonomous (stand alone) and non-autonomous (non-stand alone) 5G system are recorded with open source projects, with real devices but also with simulators depending on the case of implementation. The analysis of the results and the conclusions drawn from the implementations are summarized in the last chapter.
Closing the thesis, reference is made to the improvements that the stand alone 5G network can make, as well as to the needs that will lead us to the next generation, the sixth generation (6G) or the more future networks (Beyond) and it will be understood that all this systems are not just an improvement on previous networks but a new beginning, a revolution, an opening to the future.
