Multi-Domain Solutions for the Deployment of 5G Private Networks

This article proposes multiple multi-domain solu­tions to deploy private SG networks for vertical industries. Dif­ferent models of deploying SG private networks are presented, covering deployment on local premises as well as their inter­connection with public networks of mobile network operators. Building on a set of industry verticals (comprising Industry 4.0, Transportation and Energy) different deployment models are analyzed and the proposed multi-domain solutions are applied. These solutions are implemented and validated through two proof-of-concept prototypes integrating a SG private network platform (5Growth platform) with public ones. These solutions are being implemented in three vertical pilots conducted with real industry verticals. The obtained results demonstrated both the feasibility and benefits of the proposed solutions.
