Hello Ajitkumar. well that seems very interesting experience. yes, UE testing and defining test specifications are the apt skills pertaining to RAN5 works of 3GPP specifications.
Of course also RAN4 group of 3GPP with the RF performance and Optimizations are in the scope.

Hi @Miika P. Most of the time I have worked on both RRC and NAS layers.

09 May, 2022 08:20

Got it, so your experience is on layer 2 and above.

Hello @Rajesh B. Thanks for sharing such great information. May I know any specific skills which I need to work on and need to develop for any specific role?

09 May, 2022 08:22

At Nokia we also look into the future and develop 6G as well: https://www.bell-labs.com/research-innovation/what-is-6g/

09 May, 2022 08:23

@Miika P. Yes, Correct. I believe this skillset and experience will be useful for working in RAN side also?

09 May, 2022 08:24

Definately yes.

09 May, 2022 08:24

@Malgorzata G Thanks for sharing the information, I will have a look into it. Cheers

09 May, 2022 08:25

Hello Ajitkumar. in addition to technical skills of RAN on performance, Signalling protocols, beam forming etc... it is good to develop skills on writing whitepapers/publications and creating IPRs.

09 May, 2022 08:25

@Miika.P @Rajesh B Thanks for all the inputs you have given. Want to ask if any current role/opening which I can apply?

09 May, 2022 08:26

Your comeptences are also very relevant if we look forward to 6G, Ajitkumar. We currently study (on a research level) several options for re-designing NAS for 6G.

09 May, 2022 08:28

@Rajesh B Sure, I will work more on the RAN skills, as well as other shared topics which will be very much helpful. Thanks

Hello @Christian M
May I know which all things need to be studied on as research level that can help me in designing?

09 May, 2022 08:30

@Rajesh B Thanks for sharing the information, I will have a loot into it

09 May, 2022 08:32

@Ajitkumar
Indeed, there are several research questions associated to that topic, one of them being the issue of introducing service-based architecture principles also to NAS or, more generally, a more cloud-native design approach for better scalability and flexibility, following the principles that we have already introduced for the core network in the 5G era

09 May, 2022 08:37

@Christian M. Thanks for sharing the information, I will explore on to it. Have a good day ahead

09 May, 2022 08:38
