Samsung сообщил об одобрении стандарта мобильных сетей 5G консорциумом 3GPP





21 декабря консорциум разработчиков спецификации для мобильной телефонии – 3GPP (The 3rd Generation Partnership Project), в рамках ежеквартальной пленарной встречи в Лиссабоне (Португалия) представил новый стандарт NSA 5G NR финальной версии Release 15.
Стандарт 5G NR (5-е поколение – New Radio) одобрен всеми участниками мирового сообщества телекоммуникационных компаний 3GPP. 
Ранее в этом году представители телекоммуникационной индустрии уже одобрили ускоренную стандартизацию 5G, ради чего процесс было решено разделить на две фазы. Приоритетным стал анонс неавтономной версии Release 15 NSA (Non-standalone).
Этот релиз, по сути, стал объявлением о завершении первой фазы стандартизации 5G, которая считается наиболее важной для разработчиков и производителей оборудования.
Принятие полных спецификаций Release 15 Full (с автономными характеристиками) перенесли на 2018 год, ориентировочно на июнь. В рамках этой версии стандарта будет обеспечена эксплуатация пользовательского и управляющего автономного оборудования 5G NR с базовыми станциями поколения 5G (5G next-generation core network, NGC).
Поскольку автономные и неавтономные (SA и NSA) релизы базируются на одинаковых характеристиках физического уровня, ожидается, что оборудование NSA будет полностью совместимо с техникой SA после её стандартизации в наступающем году.
Так называемый «неавтономный» NSA (Non-standalone) режим стандарта 5G нормирует использование расширенного мобильного широкополосного доступа (enhanced Mobile BroadBand, eMBB) в сетях стандарта LTE. 
В свою очередь, стандарт 5G NR подразумевает использование новых частотных диапазонов, обеспечивающих увеличение скорости обмена данными при снижении латентности. Именно этот режим разработан в качестве фундамента на первые годы развития и внедрения сетей 5G. 
Финальные спецификации 5G описывают поддержку нескольких частотных спектров для мобильных сетей нового поколения. Низкочастотный спектр включает частоты в диапазоне 600–700 МГц. Среднечастотный спектр включает частоты в диапазоне 3,5 ГГц. Высокочастотный спектр располагается в районе диапазона 50 ГГц.
Официально скорости обмена данными для пользовательских устройств нормируются на уровне до 20 Гбит/с на приём и 10 Гбит/с на передачи, при этом сеть 5G должна держать нагрузку не менее 500 тысяч абонентских подключений на один квадратный километр площади.
Принятие финальной спецификации фактически даёт отмашку всей телекоммуникационной отрасли, обеспечит ускорение разработки и внедрения оборудования нового стандарта с целью коммерциализации первых продуктов уже в 2019-м году.
Одной из первых (если не самой первой) будет запущена в коммерческую эксплуатацию мобильная сеть 5G в Южной Корее, её готовят к началу зимних Олимпийских игр в 2018 года. В Японии запуск коммерческих сетей 5G запланирован к началу летней Олимпиады 2020.
Выступая на заседании 5G-консорциума в Лиссабоне, глава мобильного подразделения Samsung Ди Джей Ко (DJ Koh) сказал: «Будучи мировым лидером в мобильной индустрии, Samsung сотрудничает со всей отраслью, чтобы достичь этой важной вехи в стандартах 5G. С завершением стандартизации 5G NSA NR мы сможем ускорить коммерческое развёртывание 5G, включая чипсеты, устройства и сетевое оборудование. Samsung продолжит прилагать все усилия, чтобы доставить полные стандарты Rel-15 NR. Rel-15 NR и его дальнейшая эволюция станут ключевой вехой в отрасли для удовлетворения растущего глобального спроса на расширенные услуги мобильной широкополосной связи и изучения новых бизнес-возможностей и услуг, вдохновлённых 5G».

AT&T, BT, China Mobile, China Telecom, China Unicom, Deutsche Telekom, Ericsson, Fujitsu, Huawei, Intel, KT Corporation, LG Electronics, LG Uplus, MediaTek Inc., NEC Corporation, Nokia, NTT DOCOMO, Orange, Qualcomm Technologies, Inc., Samsung Electronics, SK Telecom, Sony Mobile Communications Inc., Sprint, TIM, Telefonica, Telia Company, T-Mobile USA, Verizon, Vodafone, and ZTE have made a statement that the completion of the first 5G NR standard has set the stage for the global mobile industry to start full-scale development of 5G NR for large-scale trials and commercial deployments as early as in 2019.
On February 27, 2017 in Barcelona, global mobile industry leaders announced their support for the acceleration of the 5G NR standardization schedule, which introduced an intermediate milestone to complete the first implementable specification for Non-Standalone 5G NR operation. As a result of this announcement, the schedule acceleration was agreed at the 3GPP RAN Plenary Meeting on March 9 in Dubrovnik, Croatia. This first specification was completed as part of 3GPP Release 15.
This standard completion is an essential milestone to enable cost-effective and full-scale development of 5G NR, which will greatly enhance the capabilities of 3GPP systems, as well as facilitate the creation of vertical market opportunities. 3GPP plans to continue to develop Release 15, including the addition of support for Standalone 5G NR operation also agreed upon by 3GPP in Dubrovnik. The 5G NR lower layer specifications have been designed so that they can support Standalone and Non-Standalone 5G NR operation in a unified way, to ensure that 3GPP benefits the global industry with a large-scale single 5G NR ecosystem. We express our appreciation for the tremendous efforts that 3GPP has dedicated to accomplishing this challenging standardization schedule.
