5G PPP Trials Results 2022 - Key Performance Indicators measured in advanced 5G Trial Sites

This white paper is a natural conclusion of the Test, Measurement and KPIs Validation (TMV) Working Group work powered by 5G PPP, a joint initiative between the European Commission and European ICT industry (ICT manufacturers, telecommunications operators, service providers, SMEs and researcher Institutions). 

The results presented in this white paper are based on the work carried out by 15 Phase 3 5GPPP R&I projects that engaged in 5G-enabled trials in 2022 and early 2023. These fifteen projects performed field measurements in 36 distinct 5G Trial Sites constructed across 14 European countries, during which a total of 50 vertical use cases were tested and validated by implementing about 80 distinct trial scenarios. A large variety of diversified 5G technologies, features and settings were used across the different projects, covering outdoor and indoor scenarios as well as stationary and mobile, different operational frequency bands and 5G system releases, architecture and configurations, and complementary technologies. The extensive set of parameters and configuration used during the 5GPPP Phase 3 trials proves the versatility of 5G networks and offers cumulative insights about the expected 5G performance in diversified scenarios.

This white paper concludes the TMV WG’s reporting on 5G PPP trial KPIs, but the valuable experience gained, the lessons learned, and best practices accumulated over its long operation will be inherited by follow-up R&I programmes aiming to develop 6G applications.
