NWDAF will play an essential role in the monetisation of 5G and the realisation of autonomous networks. By leveraging NWDAF to standardise data for use and analysis by 5G applications, service providers can proactively manage the level of service and improve the 5G experience for end users. NWDAF is network-aware and can interface with various control and data plane network functions to collect events that are of interest for analysis. As network slicing becomes standard, NWDAF monitors all aspects of each network slice for compliance with relevant service-level agreements.
Enabling the Dawn of Autonomous Networks
3GPP-Compliant Standalone NWDAF
A purpose-built standalone Network Data Analytics Function uniquely designed in accordance with 3GPP specifications to provide a fully standards-based 5G analytics capability. Not merely an API connection to a central analytics platform, Amdocs & Openet have expanded our 5G suite to introduce NWDAF as an independent functional component within the 5G core, allowing the analytics outputs to be actioned more efficiently and more dynamically – Realising the full potential of NWDAF and the creation of new automations.
WHY OPENET?
We have a long history of openness and rapid service development. This is backed by extensive experience with cloud and a broad portfolio of 5G functions including: Charging, Policy, Data and Analytics. We also bring decades of transformation and partner ecosystem experience.
What is Network Data Analytics Function for 5G?
- Consumes statistics, metrics and events from 5G network functions
- Retrieves management statistics from OAM
- NF discovery and identification
- Performs ML modelling on refined streamed data
- Initial use cases defined by 3GPP standards
- ML model developed based on ingested statistics
- 5G relies on autonomous networking to deliver:
- 5G network optimisation, cost efficiency and resource management
- 5G monetisation and ROI with guaranteed Quality of Experience and Quality of Service for customers
