NGN & Converegence Technologies 2 day training programme examines the concepts of Next Generation Networks (NGN) and presents the standardisation activities currently being proposed by industry bodies such as ITU and ETSI.

NGN architecture and operation is included as well as a detailed examination of NGN services, the architecture required for services and the operation of NGNs in respect of those services. Since IMS is a likely candidate for the service control layer for NGN services, an overview of IMS architecture and operation is also covered. Both the core network and access networks requirements/capabilities are studied in this programme including aspects of the transport layers and Quality of Service management. The final session covers regulatory issues that may have to be considered in building and operational Next Generation Network. Overall, this programme will give the attendee a comprehensive and detailed look at all aspects of NGN systems including the evolution processes for both fixed and mobile networks.



Why should you attend this course?

Attend this highly regarded 2-day technology programme and you will be able to:

  • Identify the primary benefits of NGN systems
  • Identify the main standards bodies and influences for the NGN standardisation processes
  • Draw a high level NGN system and identify the main component requirements
  • Explain the main functions of NGN elements found in the ETSI and ITU architectural standards
  • Show where the differences and similarities lie with NGNs from different standards bodies
  • Show how subscriber data is handled and used within NGN for service access
  • List the main requirements for NGN service support
  • Draw the IMS architecture and explain the basic aspects of its operation for NGNs
  • Show how certain services such as multi-media conferencing may be supported by NGN
  • Explain how 3rd parties may interwork with NGNs via APIs such as OSA Parlay
  • Identify the principle technologies required by the core network of NGNs
  • Show how different access networks may interoperate with NGN core networks
  • Identify regulatory issues that may impact the operation of NGNs
