How to build the best 5G core

Future-proofing policy, signaling and testing in a dynamic new network environment

With a standalone 5G network, operators will be able to employ a service-based architecture that can support web scale technologies, open source software and high levels of automation. This paper explores why this architecture needs to be reinforced and enhanced to handle the demanding challenges faced by public telecoms networks, particularly in environments where 4G and 5G are working alongside each other.

It considers the case for a converged 5G policy solution, how a service communication proxy can support 5G signaling and the benefits of moving to an automated framework for 5G testing.

In summary, operators need flexible, yet robust and highly automated policy, signaling and testing solutions that are both versatile and efficient.
