Radio Enhancements from 2G/ 3G/ 4G/ 5G

Radio has always remained as one of crucial resources to wireless technology.
They are always first to go into factory to look upon and improve the existing design/ architecture/ philosophies to give better user experience of the core/ back-haul capabilities.

NSSF - an 5G network function to support the network slicing

NSSF - Network Slice Selector Function The 5G System architecture (3GPP TS 23.501: 5G SA; Stage 2) consists of the following network functions (NF). - Authentication Server Function (AUSF) - Core Access and Mobility Management Function (AMF) - Data network (DN), e.g. operator services, Internet access or 3rd party services - Structured Data Storage network function (SDSF) - Unstructured Data Storage network function (UDSF) - Network Exposure Function (NEF) - NF Repository Function (NRF) - Network Slice Selection Function (NSSF) ======>>> our focus - Policy Control function (PCF) - Session Management Function (SMF) - Unified Data Management (UDM) - Unified Data Repository (UDR) - User plane Function (UPF) - Application Function (AF) - User Equipment (UE) - (Radio) Access Network ((R)AN)

SMS-SG on LTE/ MTC networks

SMS with LTE  (SG-SMS) SMS (Short Messaging Service) was quite popular among people during 2G/3G, but now with the advent of 4G losing the shine/ attraction. With 4G people are moving to always-on kind of data connectivity and thus market rising with many application options to provide the messaging capabilities. The examples are such as whatsapp, snapchat etc Now here we are going to discuss, “can an SMS possible in LTE technology ?” and if so “how?” One possibility of using IMS framework and delivering SMS to/from UE. IMS provides the data (e.g. data, media-voice/video) usage overlaid on LTE technology. The bigger question and climax is on market pace in adapting and deployment of the IMS. To address the feature availability, an interim solution (SG interfaces) are suggested in specs. (its similar on the lines on how CS fallback option before LTE supporting Voice calls) Lets revisit the past (2G) on how SMS are delivered. SMS is delivered over signaling channel...
