SCF Cannes Plenary 27-29 Mar 2017

Marketing


On the Cannes Agenda…• Accessing healthcare, hospitality & property

markets• Connectivity & public policy advocacy • Guiding operators to 5G

The Marketing Group considers how best to position small cells within the industry and to the wider public, build use cases, agree common terminology and communicate how the small cell ecosystem is helping to remove deployment barriers.

Chairs: Nathalie Robitaille, iBwave Emma Spiteri, ip.access

Vice-chair: Caleb Banke, Qualcomm

Business Principles


On the Cannes Agenda…• Ownership models for healthcare hospitality & property• IoT use cases for small cells• Value added services• Light/unlicensed spectrum

Investigating the non-technical factors constraining small cell deployment and providing reference models and use case to show how these can be addressed

Chairs: Ray Williamson, Huawei Art King, SpiderCloud

Operational


On the Cannes Agenda…• Enterprise deployment:

MEC-NFV impact on operations• 5G x-haul requirements• GSMA-SCF regulatory alignment• Hyperdense Operations

The Operational group covers the people teams, tools and supporting infrastructure needed to plan, deploy and operate small cell networks

Chairs:Peter Love, Nokia - deploymentPierre Lynch, Ixia - NFV, VirtualisationMirella Doicu, Nokia - Regulatory Julius Robson, SCF - x-haul

Technology and 5G


On the Cannes Agenda…• CBRS and MulteFire• MEC & FOG• Hyperdense HetNet Architecture• Security Task Force

Technologies underpinning small cell HetNets towards 5G, covering radio, network architectures, services API and management systems. Also addresses license exempt, virtualization, multi-operator and neutral host technologies.

Chairs:Prabhakar Chitrapu, AT&T, Mark Grayson, Cisco Neeraj Gupta, NEC

Interoperability


On the Cannes Agenda…• Private EPC PlugFest• HetNet and SON PlugFest

The Interoperability group provides clarity on how, where and when interoperability testing will take place to ensure that deployments function effectively and in accordance with the standards

Chair: Kreso Bilan, Magnum.aiVice-chair Antonio Coricciati, Parallel Wireless

In Cannes, IOP group will be planning the next SCF PlugFest event
