5G RRH Phase Synchronization Challenges January 13, 2026 12:10 pm – 12:30 pm Speakers Ullas Kumar (Rakon) Description The 5G architecture splits the radios physically from the base stations. Synchronization in radio is primarily based on packet synchronization techniques. The 5G requirements demand strict phase synchronization requirements, especially for radio heads in clusters. This paper […]
Ensembling Primary Reference Clocks in a Network: cnPRTC January 13, 2026 11:50 am – 12:10 pm Speakers Lee Cosart (Microchip) Description This paper introduces the coherent network primary reference time clock (cnPRTC) a topic recently taken up by Q13/SG15, the synchronization expert group at the ITU-T. The coherent network PRTC connects primary reference clocks at […]
Simulation of a Chain of Hybrid Clocks January 13, 2026 11:30 am – 11:50 am Speakers Kishan Shenoi (Qulsar) Description With the advent of 5G, not only is the need for more base-stations/access-points increasing, the density and location of deployments is getting more complicated. The synchronization requirements are getting stricter and the number of indoor […]
Moving Towards Higher Performance Boundary Clocks January 13, 2026 11:10 am – 11:30 am Speakers George Zampetti (Microchip) Description On path support for PTP transport to deliver a given timing service performance requires that the appropriate time error budget be allocated to each Boundary Clock in the path. With the continual trend towards tighter overall […]
Networking Break January 13, 2026 10:40 am – 11:10 am
Network Slicing: Hype and Hypothesis January 13, 2026 9:50 am – 10:10 am Description The visionaries have grand ideas about what 5G should be. It’s a universal network to connect anything, wirelessly, reliably, with low latency and high bandwidth, with billions of endpoints. It connects anything from a temperature sensor, to a warehouse stock tag, […]
Synchronization Architecture in 5G Networks January 13, 2026 9:30 am – 9:50 am Speakers Karim Traore (Microchip ) Description This paper discusses the synchronization challenges in 5G networks and the different synchronization architectures that can be deployed to address those challenges. Synchronization is a key feature in 5G networks with even tighter requirements than in […]
