Tech Papers 2018: This paper examines 5G deployment challenges and solutions for seamless outdoor-to-indoor connectivity, covering service use cases, handovers, architectures, spectrum considerations, and cost implications for client equipment.
Abstract
This paper will explore the 5G solutions direction from the Outside House In and Inside House Out perspectives, answering the following questions:
• What services will emerge that are outside only, versus those that are inside only?
• What happens in the hand over from one network to the next?
• What architectures are emerging?
• What solutions make sense to provide seamless connectivity?
This paper will review the use of Line-of-Sight (LOS) and Non-Line-ofSight (NLOS) solutions as well as compare the sub 6 GHz versus millimetre wave 5G considerations. It will also explore the sensitive cost points of customer client equipment to support multiple 5G options – for both outside and inside while shedding a light on some of the key decisions ahead.
