This course provides a condensed overview of the 5G Core Network as defined in the R17 3GPP standards.

It is intended to give a quick and concise summary of improvements and new concepts when comparing with the 4G EPC.

“5G Core Network in an Hour” provides a birds-eye view of the topic, focusing on the principles of the Service Based Architecture design and on the new network features intended to facilitate handling of the modern services, with high demands on the transport network resource guarantees.

It has been designed to be fully covered by students within one hour. This course also has a one day and a full three-day version.

NOTE: This course is not delivered with the FoldOut methodology.
