Abstract

SummaryThis paper describes the use cases and testbed solutions for 5G cellular backhauling via satellite developed within the H2020 5G‐Public Private Partnership (PPP) Phase III project “5G‐VINNI” (5G Verticals Innovation Infrastructure). It presents the end‐to‐end design of the 5G‐VINNI Norway and Luxembourg Facility Sites and aims to showcase the satellite integration into 5G with focus on satellite backhauling solutions. It elaborates on the satellite transport network between the 5G Radio Access Network (RAN) and the 5G Core Network (5GC), where design aspects on the satellite network integration into the standard 3GPP 5GC architecture are detailed. It also addresses the split of the 5GC between the Central Node and the Edge Node, where the Edge Node can be fixed and nomadic. The paper describes also the Management and Orchestration (MANO) and Network Functions Virtualisation Infrastructure (NFVI) features of the 5G‐VINNI Norway and Luxembourg Facility Sites.
