This document focuses on the pre-commercial network trials phase of the NGMN 5G Trial & Testing Initiative which has the following scope:
Developing a testing framework for 5G New Radio (NR), as developed by 3GPP, allowing the harmonization of the testing methodologies between the different parties conducting trials.
Devising a strategy for the trials activities to guarantee efficiency and success of the different trials activities.
Testing 5G capabilities in realistic conditions with pre-commercial equipment.

In March 2017, the project on “Service-based architecture in 5G” was launched. The main target of this work group was to investigate high-level requirements, use cases and guidelines for how operators can efficiently introduce and operate a service-based 5G network, i.e.,
Identify high-level requirements or guidelines on Service-based architecture design in 5G including network function, interface/protocol, API design principle;
Investigate how operators can leverage Service-based architecture in 5G in the best way, e.g., customized network slicing, updating and managing network feature dynamically. Samples, possible approaches and guideline are expected
Investigate how the Service-based architecture can enable network exposure, e.g., expose network and function capabilities to third parties for value-added services.
This White Paper calls for the industry on standardisation, development and promotion of service-based 5G architecture.
The solution architecture presented in this document proposes simplified principles for handling network operations data that can be applied on a large scale. In this white paper, the authors focus on obtaining access to network operations data for the purpose of network monitoring and other applications.

The aim of this work is to highlight what implications and trade-offs related to the delivery of new 5G services are relevant for mobile network operators. Some of these new services, in fact, require extremely low latency and high reliability of the communication link, which have very little in common with the targets that the telecommunications industry has worked towards until today. Mobile cellular networks have in fact traditionally been designed and optimised for the delivery of good voice and data services for mobile broadband customers, so the new 5G requirements now call for a re-think on how the future network will have to be designed and optimised in order to enable the new services.
The purpose of this document is to outline relevant trade-offs that need to be taken into account when delivering 5G services. In particular, the interplay among coverage, packet size, data rate, latency, and reliability, is analysed.

This White Paper builds on the original NGMN 5G White Paper of 2015 and the NGMN Spectrum White Paper of 2017. It addresses in more detail the spectrum and regulatory issues in relation to implementation of 5G networks.
