5G PPP projects @IEEE BSMB’18

6 June 2018 - 8 June 2018

The IEEE International Symposium on Broadband Multimedia Systems and Broadcasting 2018 will feature a wide technical and industry program covering the latest research and innovation in multimedia systems and broadcasting.

The conference will include several workshops focusing on 5G. A main 5G workshop approaching the last innovations and research activities in 5G PPP is organised. Moreover, the conference will hold specific workshops organized by one Phase 1 project and several 5G PPP Phase 2 projects: 5G-Ex (Phase 1), 5G-XcastIoRL5G-Transformer5G-CORAL5G-ExBluespaceNGPaaS and 5G-MEDIA (Phase 2 projects).

5G PPP Main Workshop. Phase 2 in 5G PPP: from Theoretical Studies to Proof-of-Concepts and Technology Demonstrators. The workshop includes the following topics:
• 5G New Radio: novel techniques in modulation, coding and waveform.
• Beamforming and massive MIMO.
• 5G Radio Access Network design.
• 5G Core Network design.
• Network Slicing for dynamically adaptable 5G networks.
• Proof-of-concepts, prototypes and demonstrations for 5G.
• Technology advancements for specific verticals such as M&E, IoT or automotive.

Workshop S1. on “Point-to-Multipoint as Key Technology Element for 5G Systems” is organised by 5G-XCast. The workshop will accept papers related to PTM for next generation 5G networks. More particularly:
• 5G Radio Access Network design for point to multipoint transmissions. • 5G Core Network Design for broadcast technologies. • Seamless convergence of fixed, mobile and broadcast networks.
• Evolved Multimedia Broadcast Multicast Service (eMBMS) and 5G New Radio.
• Novel techniques in modulation, coding and waveform.
• Technology prototypes and demonstrations for broadcast in 5G.
• Advanced techniques for other digital terrestrial systems: DVB, DVB-WIB or ATSC 3.0.

 

Workshop S2 on ” A Scalable and License Free 5G Internet of Radio Light Architecture for Services in Homes and Businesses” is proposed by IoRL. The main topics in this workshop are: • Broadband communication solutions for buildings. • Integration of IoRL technologies. • The broadband capacities of mmWave. • VLC technologies and the flexibility of SDN/NFV. • Design of radio-light solutions • Proof-of-concept and demonstration on radio-light.

 

5G-Coral

Workshop S3 on “Control and Management of Vertical Slicing including the Edge and Fog Systems” is provided by 5G-Transformer (Phase 2), 5G-Ex (Phase 1) and 5G-CORAL (collaborative project).

The workshop will gather the following list of topics:
• Mobile and fixed Transport Network Architecture
• Multi-domain service and resource orchestration.
• Business mechanisms and economic framework for network slicing.
• Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC).
• Protocol and API developments for network slicing.
• Security threats and control mechanisms in network slicing.
• Policy enforcement on sliced infrastructures.
• Migration from existing operational networks towards sliced environments
• Novel designs for Edge, Fog and Cloud integrated systems including orchestration and control.

 

Workshop S4 on “5G Infrastructure: Requirements and Enablers from Broadcasting and Multimedia Applications” is organised by Bluespace and focuses on:

• 5G infrastructure
• Requirements and Enablers from Broadcast/Multicast.
• Spatial Division Multiplexing in the RAN.
• Compact and reconfigurable infrastructures.
• Network Function Virtualization (NFV) paradigms.
• Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC).
• Passive Optical Networks (PONs).

NGPaasWorkshop S5 on “Accelerating Microservices: Design and Development” is proposed by NGPaaS. Topics of interest include, but are not limited to the following:

• Cloud-native microservice architectures including RAN, CORE, xHaul, Applications.
• Hardware acceleration and abstraction.
• Re-programmable infrastructures.
• Automation and verification.
• Resource orchestration.
• High performance development and operational environments with simplified and accelerated production.

Workshop S6 on “Media delivery innovations using flexible network models in 5G” is organised by 5G-MEDIA. The workshop seeks previously unpublished technical papers on the topics:
• Architectures for SDN/NFV to enhance media delivery towards 5G.
• Applications using flexible networks in the media domain.
• New media applications using flexible/ virtualized networks towards 5G.
• New mechanism for media delivery in 5G which can benefit from flexible network models.
• QoE / QoS approach in flexible network models.
• Improved CDN models.
• Infrastructures proposal to run media experiments on 5G.
