11Copyright © 2016 The Fifth Generation Mobile Communications Promotion ForumKey Concepts of 5G
Two Key Concepts of 5G
1. Satisfaction of End-to-End Quality•

5G shall provide satisfactory "End-to-End Quality" required by any kind of application
anytime, anywhere and any use scenes.

•This conceptualization of “Satisfaction of End-to-End Quality” is very different fromprevious generations of mobile communication systems, for which best effort
delivery was seen as sufficient.

2. Extreme Flexibility•5G networks will be required to provide “Extreme Flexibility” In order to produce
this level of End-to-End Quality for the many services 5G systems will be expected tosupport.

2016 Japan-China TDD Forum

12Copyright © 2016 The Fifth Generation Mobile Communications Promotion ForumEnd-to-End Quality in the 5G era• End-to-end (E2E) quality required by applications and/or users will be far morediversified in the 5G era than what we have seen in the preceding generations.

For example, the ITU-R Vision recommendation [1] illustrates a number of usage scenarios in which the capabilities required
are not identical but diversified depending on the expected E2E quality.
[1] IMT Vision – “Framework and overall objectives of the future development ofIMT for 2020 and beyond”, ITU-R, Recommendation M.2083-0, Sep. 2015

• The following figure represents potential 5G applications mapped on a domain of thequality in user experience by the quantity of data.

13Copyright © 2016 The Fifth Generation Mobile Communications Promotion ForumKey Technologies for Key Concepts
Key Technologies Needed to Realize Key Concepts
1. Advanced Heterogeneous Networks

5G will not be made up of a single network, rather it will use advanced heterogeneous
networks, where 5G radio access technologies (RAT), already existing 2G, 3G, LTE,WLAN networks to create an integrated system that can provide support for a variety ofservices with flexibility.

2. Network Softwarization

Network Softwarization is an overall transformation trend in this industry. With
network softwarization, network devices and components can be designed, introduced,
maintained and administered with easily updated programmable software as well as
ensuring that network devices and components can easily and flexibly be used andmaintained.

• 5G systems will be determined based on individual use scene requirements.

• Spectrum needs to be used based on the individual characteristics of each band,from low frequency to high frequency• Evaluate frequency bands from 6GHz to 100GHz from the following viewpoints
Stage1 : Use cases and technology
Stage2 : Sharing or interacting with other systems
Classification of Spectrum Ranges above 6GHz in Stage 16GHz30 GHz

 Building relationships with 5G related organizations internationally; Promoting 5G for potential users in industry.

 5GMF hopes discussions on following actions are successful
in order to speed up the introduction of the necessary
standards and requirements:
 Hold 5G Verification Trials under actual conditions in order to attract relevant industries
to utilize 5G;
 Give demonstrations of 5G characteristics collaborating with domestic and international
partners;
 Consider a platform where service providers will be able to easily offer 5G related
services to their customers;
 Consider the necessary frequency bands for 5G both domestically and internationally,on which 5G’s success depends.
