BT & Huawei Research 5G Network Slicing quoting : "lightreading"

Ahead of the upcoming Mobile World Congress 2017 (MWC 2017), Huawei has launched its Cloud Enterprise Private Network (CloudEPN) solution for enterprise interconnection. According to market research and a survey carried out by Analysys Mason, a large proportion of carrier revenue is generated by enterprise leased line services. After devices are sent to customers through express delivery, enterprise customers only need to connect power and network cables to the devices received. Enterprise leased line services have become the core for carriers to increase revenues. The solution helps carriers to provide on-demand and cost-effective enterprise leased line services with cloud-based visualized O&M.

Network slicing allows specific 'slices' within an IP-based network to be ring-fenced for particular activities. BT and Huawei today announced new research into how 'network slicing' – a method of carving out specific 'slices' of an IP-based network for dedicated purposes – may be used to support services delivered over tomorrow's 5G networks. Huawei is very pleased to be working with BT on investigating how to implement network slicing technologies in the UK."BTHuawei Technologies Co. Ltd. New 5G slices can also be 'spun up' in an agile way according to customer needs. Today's announcement builds on the wide-ranging 5G collaboration agreement signed by the two companies in December, and marks the first area of specific research activity for the team, based at the BT Labs in Adastral Park near Ipswich, and in other locations across the UK.
