5G is Real: Evaluating the Compliance of the 3GPP 5G New Radio System With the ITU IMT-2020 Requirements

Samer Henry –  Ahmed Alsohaily  – Elvino S. Sousa

Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering, University of Toronto

 

ABSTRACT.   The 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) submitted the 5G New Radio (NR) system specifications to International Telecommunication Union (ITU) as a candidate fifth generation (5G) mobile communication system (formally denoted as IMT-2020 systems). As part of the submission, 3GPP provided a self-evaluation for the compliance of 5G NR systems with the ITU defined IMT-2020 performance requirements. This paper considers the defined 5G use case families, Ultra Reliable Low-Latency Communication (URLLC), massive Machine Type Communication (mMTC) and enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB), and provides an independent evaluation of the compliance of the 3GPP 5G NR self-evaluation simulations with the IMT-2020 performance requirements for connection density, reliability, and spectral efficiency for future mobile broadband and emerging IoT applications. Independent evaluation indeed shows the compliance of the 3GPP 5G NR system with the ITU IMT-2020 performance requirements for all parameters evaluated by simulations.

Readings / “What the Administration is Missing About Huawei & 5G”

“What the Administration is Missing About Huawei & 5G”

 

“…[T]he impact of adding Huawei to the BIS [Bureau of Industry and Security] list was to prohibit U.S. companies from sharing sensitive technologies with the Chinese companies. By way of collateral damage, it also placed SSOs [Standards Setting Organizations] in the position of either barring Huawei from participating in their activities – since the disclosure of technology is sometimes necessary to standards development – or radically changing their processes and rules in order to fit within either of two existing exemptions, neither of which (publishing and conferences) were very direct or useful fits. SSOs have been struggling ever since with how to adapt, especially since interim guidance provided by BIS some months later proved not to be very useful….”

Outdoor Power Equipment

The appearance of lawns and gardens contributes mightily to pleasant campus atmospherics that, in turn, supports the educational mission, philanthropic goals and brand identity.  Playgrounds provide the opportunity for children to practice skills that will ultimately play a role in adult competencies such as the ability to collaborate with others, develop decision making skills, and successfully take on leadership roles, persevere in the face of distractions, and generate creative ideas.   Many colleges and universities have botanical gardens that are open for instruction and public enjoyment.

The Outdoor Power Equipment Institute (OPEI) is one of the first names in standards setting in this domain.  The landing page for its standards-setting enterprise is linked below:

OPEI Standards Listing

Note that OPEI develops its suite according to the ANSI/NIST-ITL Canvass Method.*

OPEI has released the following title for public consultation:

OPEI B175.5-202X (N9) – (Standard) for Outdoor Power Equipment et. al

Canvass Committee response to the first draft is linked below:

OPEI B175.5 Canvass Summary

Comments are due July 23rd.

We encourage our colleagues in exterior grounds and landscaping units to participate directly as a User interest in the OPEI standards development process.   OPEI Standards Staff Contacts are listed on the OPEI Standards landing page.  Start with Greg Knott (gknott@opei.org)

Noteworthy: OPEI is also ANSI’s US Technical Advisory Group administrator and the Global Secretariat for ISO TC/23 Tractors and machinery for agriculture and forestry.  This makes sense since the machinery manufacturing has long since been a global industry.  The landing page for that committee is linked below:

ISO/TC 23/SC 13 Powered lawn and garden equipment

We maintain OPEI titles on the standing agenda of our Sport and Bucolia colloquia.   See our CALENDAR for the next online meeting; open to everyone.
