• Analog technology focused on voice
communication.
• Limited data capabilities, poor voice quality,
low data rates.
• Switching : circuit
• Multiple Access System: FDMA [Frequency
division multiple access]
2G(Second Generation):
• Cloud Native
o Services are built to run in cloud environments,
making it easier to scale up or down.
• Containerization
o Containers are used to encapsulate network
functions and applications in 5G networks.
o They enable efficient deployment, scalability, and
consistency across different parts of the network.
• Microservices
o Complex network functions into smaller,
manageable units.
o Each microservice performs a specific task, making
it easier to develop, test, and maintain different
parts of the network.
• Automation
o Automated processes handle tasks such as service
provisioning, scaling, and fault detection, reducing
manual intervention and improving efficiency.
• Orchestration
o Orchestration in 5G involves coordinating the
deployment and management of various
