22 November – 19 December 2022
International Telecommunication Union (ITU) Centre of Excellence (CoE) at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Information Technologies, Ss. Cyril and Methodius University in Skopje, will conduct eLearning course on “5G-Advanced Mobile Broadband Internet and New Services” from 22 November to 19 December 2022, within the framework of ITU Centre of Excellence Network for Europe, and it will be delivered through the ITU Academy: https://academy.itu.int
Head/Coordinator of ITU Centre of Excellence at the Faculty of Electrical Engineering and Information Technologies in Skopje is Prof. Dr. Toni Janevski (tonij@feit.ukim.edu.mk).
This course will focus on 5G-Advanced Mobile Broadband Internet and New Services, including technologies, regulation and business aspects. It will start with mobile broadband Internet, including IPv6 mobility, 4G/4.9G (LTE/LTE-Advanced-Pro) and its Evolved Packet System (EPS), QoS, QoE and KPIs for mobile broadband Internet, then NB-IoT and eMTC, mobile spectrum management, as well as regulation of the mobile broadband Internet. The course will also include 5G New Radio (NR), 5G Core (5GC) and Software-Based Architecture (SBA), edge computing, network slicing, 5G QoS and slicing QoE, ITU’s OTN (Optical Transport Network) for 5G, spectrum management for 5G NR, as well as 5G business and regulatory aspects. Further, it focuses on future mobile broadband, including 5G-Advanced enhancements, Integrated Access and Backhaul (IAB), AI (Artificial Intelligence) / ML (Machine Learning) use in 5G-Advanced, interworking of 5G and future WLAN (WiFi 6 and WiFi 7). In addition, the course will include Non-Terrestrial Network/Satellite evolution for NR and IoT, 5G FWA (Fixed-Wireless Access), 5G/5G-Advanced private (non-public) networks, as well as business and regulatory aspects of future mobile broadband. Finally, the course will cover new 5G/5G-Advanced mobile services, including new 5G voice (VoNR, EPS Fallback), evolution of 5G multicast and broadcast, 5G XR (eXtended Reality) with application awareness, and evolved Mobile Broadband (eMBB) for OTTs. It will also include massive MTC/IoT services, URLLC for Industrial IoT over NR, Advanced V2X, 5G-Advanced services vs. Internet network neutrality, as well as business and regulatory aspects for new 5G-Advanced services.
This course is targeted at managers, engineers and employees from regulators, government organizations, telecommunication companies and academia, who are interested in understanding, implementation and regulation of 5G-Advanced Mobile Broadband Internet and New Services, including technologies, regulatory and business aspects. Other institutions and individuals that are dedicated in building their capacity related to 5G-Advanced Mobile Broadband Internet and New Services.
