cific scenario. Ericsson and Far EasTone Telecommunications (FET) from Taiwan demonstrated a solution where smartphone applications interact with different network slices, based on the QoS requirements. Here, dynamic network slice selection provides an added level of flexibility in the mobile application design and architecture, as shown in Figure 13.3. 5G Network Slicing Device Example: Communications app category binding to App Category (Others) network slices App Category (Gaming) App Category (Work application) (191) URCP LAYER: Bind app to slice and DNN Modem chip Figure 13.3 - A selection of a network slice This type of solution allows policy-based selection of a network slice that is most optimal for an application. For instance, a smartphone user may use the generic broadband slice for regular mobile services and a different slice for gaming applications. However, the same smartphone device could be used for enterprise applications. In this case, a highly secure network slice is used for enterprise applications such as secure video conferences with a field technician. In this case, the user experience and reliability of the enterprise applications on a smartphone are improved via network slicing. Such a use case is becoming increasingly important, due to the increasing use of Bring Your Own Device (BYOD) policies in the corporate world as well as remote work, as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Network slicing provides a capability bridge between public network flexibility and the benefits of standalone networks. In order to capitalize on the opportunities provided by 5G network slicing, CSPs have to look at their priorities for investments. These priorities will be dictated by the type of demand they see in their customer base. Figure 13.4 shows how the adoption of 5G and its use cases will grow. CSPs have to look at the opportunities in the near future for monetization while keeping long-term growth in mind. Initially, a few slices may suffice for meeting the near-term requirements of its enterprise c
