Assure 5G - Operationally Assure 5G Opportunities with Advanced Testing

This third in the Spirent 5G testing series explores how Service Assurance in the operational environments is an enabler for assuring 5G delivers the new revenues, new savings and experiences 5G promises.

The opportunities generated by 5G touch nearly every aspect of operations: We’ll see new revenue streams, new services and user experiences, new cost savings that reduce both Capex and Opex, introduce new goals, or KPIs. The potential of 5G is immense, with the 5G value chain estimated to be worth $3.5 trillion by 2035 (IHS & Qualcomm). A recent study by Ericsson and the consultancy firm Arthur D. Little found that CSPs could draw an additional 34% revenue from 5G-enabled market opportunities by 2026. Because Spirent has been early out of the gate with test and assurance solutions for 5G technologies, we understand the challenges of operationally assuring that 5G delivers on its potential. This paper will examine the changes that are coming in each of these business aspects and suggest testing solutions that service providers and enterprises can access right now to align their operations for success in the 5G operational environment.

Topics covered include:

• Exploration on how 5G can deliver:

  • New revenue opportunities

  • New savings and efficiencies

  • New experiences for customers

• Recommended active test and service assurance practices for operationally assuring 5G delivers the new revenues, savings & experiences:

  • Lifecycle Service Assurance (LSA) and automation

  • Active test and monitoring

  • User experience evaluation
