Ingabe i-sweet spot ye-5G SA iyanyamalala?

UDavid Martin, umhlaziyi ophezulu kanye nenhloko ye-telecom cloud kwa-STL Partners, utshele uFierce ukuthi nakuba "izithembiso eziningi" zenziwe ngabasebenza ngokusatshalaliswa kwe-5G SA ngo-2021 no-2022, eziningi zalezo zithembiso azikafezeki.

"Abasebenzi bacishe bathula ngokuphelele kulokhu," kusho uMartin. Sifinyelele esiphethweni sokuthi, empeleni, okuningi [kokuthunyelwa okuhleliwe] ngeke kuqedwe.” Ngokusho kwe-STL Partners, lokhu kungenxa yezinto eziningi ezahlukene.

Njengoba u-Martin achaza, opharetha kungenzeka ukuthi bebebambezela ukuthunyelwa kwe-5G SA ngenxa yokungaqiniseki okuzungeze ukuthunyelwa kwe-SA uqobo, okuhambisana nokuntula ukuzethemba ekukhipheni i-5G SA efwini lomphakathi. "Kuwuhlobo oluthile lombuthano ononya, ngomqondo wokuthi i-SA iwumsebenzi wenethiwekhi ofaneleka kahle ukuthunyelwa kumafu omphakathi, kodwa ngokuqondakalayo abaqhubi abaqiniseki kakhulu ngemiphumela ebanzi yokwenza lokho ngokwemithetho, ukusebenza, nokuphepha. , ukuqina nokunye,” kusho uMartin. UMartin waphawula ukuthi ukuzethemba okukhulu kumacala okusebenzisa i-5G SA kungaqhuba opharetha abaningi ukuthi bawathumele efwini lomphakathi. Kodwa-ke, uthe, ngaphezu kwamandla okusika inethiwekhi, "ambalwa kakhulu amacala awusizo athuthukisiwe futhi athengiswa."

Ngaphezu kwalokho, o-opharetha sebevele bezabalaza ukukhiqiza imbuyiselo kusuka ekutshalweni kwezimali okukhona ku-5G engazimele (5G NSA). I-STL iphinde igqamise izinguquko kubahlinzeki bamafu omphakathi ngokwabo. Iphawule, ngokwesibonelo, ukuthi kube nokungabaza ngokuzibophezela kweMicrosoft efwini le-telecom ngemuva kokuthi ihlele kabusha ibhizinisi layo lenkampani yenethiwekhi ukuze ifake imikhiqizo ewumongo weselula okuhlanganisa namasethi emikhiqizo e-Affirmed enqanyuliwe kanye ne-Metaswitch. "Ngicabanga ukuthi lokhu kubangela opharetha ukungabaza okukhulu ngoba i-AWS isesimweni esihle sokusebenzisa leli thuba futhi isungule ubuholi nokubusa emandleni enethiwekhi yomphakathi anikwe amandla ngamafu, kodwa opharetha ngokusobala abafuni ukuthi i-AWS ibuse futhi kungase kudingeke balinde kuze kube abanye abadlali bayakhuphuka futhi bakhombise ukusebenza nokuqina kwengqalasizinda yabo yamafu, ”kusho uMartin. Ukhombe i-Google Cloud kanye ne-Oracle njengabathengisi ababili "abangakwazi ukugcwalisa igebe." Esinye isizathu sokungabaza mayelana ne-5G SA ukuthi abanye opharetha kungenzeka manje bafuna ubuchwepheshe obusha obufana ne-5G Advanced kanye ne-6G. UMartin uthe i-5G Advanced(ebuye yaziwe ngokuthi yi-5.5G) ayidingi ukusetshenziswa yodwa, kodwa waphawula ukuthi ubuchwepheshe beRedCap abuhlukile ngoba buncike ekusikeni kwenethiwekhi ye-5G SA kanye nokuxhumana okukhulu kohlobo lomshini ( noma eMTC) amakhono. "Ngakho-ke uma iRedCap yamukelwa kabanzi, ingasebenza njenge-catalyst," esho.

Inothi loMhleli: Ngemva kokushicilelwa kwalesi sihloko, u-Sue Rudd, umqondisi ophethe we-BBand Communications, uthe i-5G Advanced ibilokhu idinga i-5G SA njengemfuneko, hhayi nje i-RedCap 'ngaphandle'. "Zonke izici ezithuthukile ze-3GPP 5G zithuthukisa ukwakhiwa okusekelwe kusevisi ye-5G," esho. Ngesikhathi esifanayo, uMartin uyaqaphela, opharetha abaningi manje sebesekupheleni komjikelezo wokutshala izimali we-5G, futhi "bazoqala ukubheka i-6G." UMartin waphawula ukuthi opharetha be-Tier 1 asebevele bekhiphe i-5G SA esikalini "manje bazofuna imbuyiselo kulokhu kutshalwa kwezimali ngokwakha amacala okusebenzisa inethiwekhi," kodwa wathi "uhlu olude lwabasebenzisi abangakaqali i-5G SA kungenzeka. manje linda eceleni, mhlawumbe uhlole i-5.5G futhi ulibazise ukuthunyelwa kwe-SA unomphela."

Ngesikhathi esifanayo, umbiko we-STL uphakamisa ukuthi amathuba e-vRAN kanye ne-RAN evulekile abukeka ethembisa kakhulu kune-5G SA, lapho i-vRAN ichazwa njengethobelana namazinga e-Open RAN kodwa ngokuvamile inikezwa umthengisi oyedwa. Lapha, u-Martin ukwenza kucace ukuthi ama-opharetha akudingeki avumelanise ukutshalwa kwezimali ku-5G SA naku-vRAN/Open RAN, nokuthi utshalomali olulodwa alunqumi kusengaphambili olunye. Ngesikhathi esifanayo, uthe opharetha bebengaqiniseki ukuthi yikuphi ukutshalwa kwezimali okubili okufanele kubekwe phambili, futhi bayabuza ukuthi i-5G SA iyadingeka ngempela ukuze "isebenzise ngokugcwele izinzuzo ze-Open RAN, ikakhulukazi mayelana nokuhleleka kwe-RAN ekusikeni kwenethiwekhi kanye ukuphathwa kwe-spectrum." Lokhu futhi kuyisici esiyinkimbinkimbi. "Ngicabanga ukuthi abashayeli bebelokhu becabanga ngale mibuzo iminyaka emibili noma emithathu edlule, hhayi nje nge-SA, kodwa siphatha kanjani ifu lomphakathi? Ngabe sizothatha imodeli egcwele amafu amaningi?

Zonke lezi zinkinga zixhumene, futhi awukwazi ukubheka enye yazo ngokuzihlukanisa futhi ungayinaki isithombe esikhulu, "wanezela. Umbiko we-STL uphawula ukuthi ngo-2024, amaphrojekthi abalulekile e-Open / vRAN avela ku-opharetha abakhulu kuhlanganise ne-AT & T, i-Deutsche Telekom. , I-Orange ne-STC kulindeleke ukuthi iqale imisebenzi yezohwebo ngezinga elithile uMartin wanezela ukuthi imodeli ye-vRAN "inamandla okuba imodeli ephumelelayo ye-5G evulekile ye-RAN." ukusebenza kahle kanye nekhono lokukhombisa ukuthunyelwa kwayo ngendlela evulekile." Kodwa ngicabanga ukuthi amandla e-vRAN makhulu kakhulu," esho.
