Course Details

For 5G network applications such as Voice over New Radio, network slicing and MEC (Multi access Edge Computing), policy and charging control is a critical element of the 5G architecture. This course explores the main concepts behind PCC, before then looking at the specific detail of the 5G PCC architecture, along with key aspects such as non-session and session related policy control. The three main elements of PCC Rule Binding will be discussed, before concluding with an exploration of charging in 5G.
