A detailed look at 5G core protocols
- At the heart of 5G, lies the complex, yet fascinating architecture of 5G core protocols. Join us in this lesson, as we go in to demystify these protocols. In this video, we'll explore protocol stack for user and control plane, including interfaces between base stations, base station, and core network. By the end of this video, you will be able to describe the main protocols of 5G system, and explain their functionalities. We've already overviewed the main protocols for 5G radio. Now let's start talking about core network protocols and the overall system. To begin with, a look at 5G system user plane protocols and interfaces. Here we have, user equipment, 5G base station, and UPF, the core network. We've already observed protocol stack for radio interface between the UI and base station, so base station use GTP-U protocol over UDP and IP for N3 interface, to have a connection with UPF, UE has IP address connectivity with UPF, because UPF is actually responsible for handling user…
