Abstract
This paper assesses the network performance in terms of Quality of Service (QoS) for the enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB) slicing of a private Stand-Alone (SA) network and a base station, identified as Next-Generation Node B (gNB), which is operating at 3.75GHz and using a Software Defined Radio (SDR) device. The contributions of this work are the evaluation of the computational resource allocation of a private 5G SA and the comparison of the QoS performance of the private SA network with a controlled laboratory testbed and a simulation tool, which is known as UERANSIM (User Equipment and Radio Access Network). Additionally, open-source monitoring systems were used in order to collect memory and CPU usage of the network during the experimentation. For the deployment of the SDR 5G SA gNB, the Universal Radio Software Peripheral (USRP) version B210 equipment was utilized. The results also consider the evaluation of QoS metrics i.e. throughput, jitter, round trip time and propagation delay to assess the performance of the private SDR 5G SA network.
