Press Release
- Nokia introduces Nokia 5G Digital Design concept, which uses AI
to simulate 5G use cases to accelerate real-world network design
and ensure 5G networks meet business goals
- Launches Cross-Domain Architecture service enabling operators
to quickly transform multivendor end-to-end networks to 5G
- New Site Evolution Service provides faster and efficient
evolution of LTE and 5G site rollouts while assuring leaner,
simpler and more sustainable sites
12 June 2018
5G World 2018, London - Nokia is launching new services to
help operators prioritize their 5G investments and bring 5G-based
services to market faster. Network slicing, cloudification and 5G
New Radio technology pose different challenges for operators, and
the new networks will require an end-to-end approach to meet the
demands of new 5G applications. Nokia is introducing additions to
its 5G Acceleration Services, including a disruptive, use
case-driven concept - Nokia 5G Digital Design - as well as
Cross-Domain Architecture and Site Evolution Services to smooth the
rollout of 5G networks. These services will deliver lower total
cost of ownership (TCO) and speed up time-to-market by several
months.
Nokia 5G Digital Design is a unique, patent-pending
concept that will dramatically change the way future networks are
designed. Utilizing the Nokia AVA cognitive services platform and
machine learning algorithms, it will simulate the impact of 5G use
cases on networks. In the future, it will also use digital twin
technology* to quickly and accurately show the technological and
cost impacts of real-world 5G implementation, and provide automated
recommendations for action. This will enable operators to roll out
their 5G networks faster, while optimizing CAPEX spending.
Nokia also addresses the detailed deployment considerations of
5G rollouts with new Cross-Domain Architecture and Site
Evolution Services. They help translate 5G business plans into
clear and concise technical requirements across all domains,
regardless of vendor. Cross-Domain Architecture simplifies the
complexity of multivendor and legacy networks, providing
architecture and design solutions tailored to operator-specific 5G
use cases. Comprehensive testing ensures that networks deliver the
required latency, throughput and reliability.
Site Evolution Services help operators to evolve their 2G-4G
networks to 5G quickly and cost-efficiently, saving both CAPEX and
OPEX. Efficiencies are achieved with the reuse of existing site
infrastructure and minimizing the number of site changes and
visits, and quality is assured with field-proven site solutions
tested with Nokia 5G equipment. Nokia's site solutions are designed
to maximize sustainability, with energy efficient solutions and
renewable energy options. Nokia's Site Evolution Services will
leverage automated project management processes, real-time field
collaboration and the future use of augmented reality technologies
to assist installation and commissioning procedures.
John Delaney, Associate Vice President, European Mobility,
IDC, said: "Operators see that 5G can open up new
opportunities, but making the business case for investment can be
very complex. Help with handling that complexity can contribute
significantly to ensuring that 5G networks are developed in the
right direction."
Sanjay Goel, President, Global Services at Nokia, said:
"5G network evolution is not only about the radio, but the entire
cross-domain architecture and how operators can manage it. It's
about where to invest first - and how to keep the investments and
total cost of ownership under control. Nokia's use case-focused 5G
services recognize that operators might initially want to use 5G
for different purposes: some to offer consumer services, others
focusing more on industrial applications. Leveraging Nokia's
artificial intelligence, automation and multivendor expertise can
help operators prioritize their investments based on their 5G
strategies."
In addition to launching three new services, Nokia is expanding
its end-to-end 5G portfolio by introducing full Software Defined
Network and virtual private networks capabilities within the Nokia
Wavence microwave transmission system. This will enable the
creation and dynamic management of separated network slices for
user groups in microwave segments in a 5G network.
Visit the Nokia stand #5G450 at 5G World - part of TechXLR8 2018
- at the ExCel London, 12-14 June, to see highlights of Nokia's
end-to-end 5G offering.

Note to editors: * Digital Twins are digital replicas of
physical assets, processes and systems that also interact with the
real system - with the digital replica mimicking changes as they
occur in the actual physical system. The concept has been around
for some time now, but it is only thanks to the availability of
cloud computing and the resurgence of Artificial Intelligence that
it's become cost effective to implement.
