Workshop: Integration of Optical and Satellite Communication Systems into 5G Edge Networks (OSCto5G)

19 juliol 2020 // 23 juliol 2020

During the 22th International Conference on Transparent Optical Networks, which will take place next July in Bari, Italy, the i2CAT Foundation will organize the 2nd workshop on ‘Integration of Optical and Satellite Communication Systems into 5G Edge Networks (OSCto5G)’.

The session will focus on optical fiber, satellite systems and enablers like Network Softwarization (NS), which are key technologies to support the 5G vertical requirements. It triggers an enormous effort, at different levels, ranging from the definition of use cases and architectures, physical layer integration, network management and orchestration up to standardization actions, to integrate inhomogeneous communication technologies under a single uniform umbrella.

The aim of this workshop is to present recent research results targeting the integration of the optical and satellite communication systems into 5G edge networks.

Topics of relevance include:

  • Use Cases and Architectures
    • Operators and Enterprise-based Environments;
    • Slices in Constrained Environments (IoT, Edge, etc.);
    • Innovative service and Application;
    • Smart-X slice mobility.
  • Physical Layer Design and Hardware Aspects
    • Advanced Optical Elements for 5G Communications
    • Advanced Satellite Systems for 5G Communications
  • Network Softwarization, Management and Orchestration
    • Virtualization of Satellite and Optical Elements;
    • Software Defined Networking for Converged Technologies;
    • Common operations and API;
    • Inter- and intra-slice Interactions;
    • Lifecycle Management and Orchestration;
    • High Availability and Reliability Techniques.
  • Standardization Trends and Activities
    • Status and progresses in 3GPP/ETSI/IETF/5GAA and other SDOs;
    • Slice-enhanced Networking and Telecommunication Protocols;
    • SDN/NFV Initiatives;
