Voice over 5G Standalone (VoNR)

( Duration: 4 Days )

Voice services are a fundamental offering for mobile operators, and when performed using a 5G Standalone (SA) network, it is called Voice over New Radio (VoNR). The ability to complete VoNR calls will be an important step in the global mobile industry’s evolution from non-standalone to standalone, as it will allow operators to deliver high-quality voice service without having to rely on VoLTE (voice over LTE) or an LTE anchor.

VoNR is anticipated to become increasingly more valuable to enterprise and consumer segments coincident with the growth of next-generation applications, especially those involving immersive technologies such as augmented, virtual, and mixed reality.

This Voice over 5G Standalone (VoNR) training course covers VoNR basic concepts, VoNR architecture, VoNR network nodes, VoNR protocols, VoNR interfaces, session handling, media and control, VoNR frameworks and profiles, VoNR operational scenarios, QoS, security, emergency services, SMS, charging and roaming. This course covers all aspects of VoNR, the next innovation in the 5G Standalone (SA) deployment, 5GC in conjunction with IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) and SIP to deliver various services such as voice, SMS, video and other services such as IM and Presence. This course describes the end-to-end 5G network (5GC, NG-RAN and IMS) and related operations for implementation of Voice over New Radio (VoNR). It provides key features and functionalities for the VoNR service including descriptions of the signaling procedures for IMS registration, Call Setup and release. The course also provides the description and signaling required for EPS fallback to VoLTE and procedures for emergency calling in 5G.

By attending Voice over 5G Standalone (VoNR) workshop, delegates will:

  • Learn the key concepts behind architecture for voice services in 5G NSA and SA
  • Describe VoNR vs. EPS fallback services
