What will you learn?

5G NR TDD (Time-Division Duplex) networks require precise timing and synchronization to function optimally.

Timing refers to the accurate representation of time across multiple network elements and synchronization ensures that these elements are operating in unison. This is crucial for 5G NR TDD because the TDD mode of operation demands that uplink and downlink transmissions be timed precisely to avoid interference and ensure optimal resource utilization.

With stringent requirements demanded by 5G NR TDD networks, what role does timing and synchronization play for service reliability and user experience?

What testing processes are required to help identify and resolve potential issues on the timing and synchronization systems?

In this panel, we will examine the importance of ensuring proper implementation of timing and synchronization in 5G NR TDD networks for enhancing the overall performance and reliability of the wireless network.

Lab and manufacturing testing

As 5G deployments pick up pace, and the variety of 5G use cases evolves, the need for high quality, high performing devices which support the network and these new services grows too. We seek to explore the latest updates and solutions regarding quality assurance, meeting standards and regulations and getting devices to market faster to enable 5G at scale.

Field network testing


With new technologies, new frequencies and new equipment, testing the network can be as complex as designing it. We dig into the detail on topics such as preparing to deploy standalone 5G, the need for robust fiber testing, automated test solutions and tackling challenges such as PIM and RF interference.

Service assurance

As carriers look to deploy enterprise private networks, sometimes with hyper-specific requirements, service assurance becomes ever more critical. Consumers are also demanding more from their providers and so quality of the consumer’s experience also comes into play. Key stakeholders will come together to discuss the challenges of SLAs, QoS and the solutions which can help carriers ensure network quality and performance and achieve excellent customer service.
