Multiple slices create multiple virtual network instances.

Unique Quality of Service can be allocated to a given slice.

Specific resources can be allocated to a given slice.

Network Slicing is a way to physically partition the common network infrastructure.

Security + Cloud isolation

Resource + Security isolation

Transport + Cloud isolation

Resource + Traffic isolation

5G will generate a huge amount of data and Information Technology will provide the computing platform with analytics and AI.

5G provides the connectivity (bandwidth, latency and reliability) needed to exchange data for OT and IT functionality.

5G brings nothing to Industry 4.0.

5G will generate a huge amount of data with mMTC and IT platforms are expected to suffer from this.

Support of up to 1 billion of IoT and sensors devices per km2

Lower Time Transmission Interval (TTI)

Higher spectral efficiency

Edge Clouds

When it serves a given customer for a specific purpose, such as a national energy network.

When it cross all the network layers from the radio up to the core.

When it serves a given common purpose, for a use case with a defined QoS (eg a use case in transportation, in energy).

When it operates on the same layer of the ISO/OSI model.

The “sweet spot” for industry 4.0 is the intersection of URLLC, eMBB and mMTC.

The “sweet spot” for industry 4.0 is a double-digit revenue growth.

The “sweet spot” for industry 4.0 is a deployment strategy for delivering the required capacity and coverage for industrials.

The “sweet spot” for industry 4.0 is the intersection of operational, information and communications technologies.
