The 5G-CRESCA project will develop a 5G NSA/SA hybrid and private MPN (Mobile Private Network) which will allow new capabilities to deliver smarter, more efficient, and resilient services with enhanced security and privacy required in applications such as eLearning, health and industry.

The network is characterised as private – it will provide dedicated coverage to the areas of the project and will allow private access to terminals equipped with designated SIM cards- and as hybrid – it will also allow private terminals to access the coverage areas of the public network with a special profile, to guarantee the performance necessary for the use cases, and the coverage provided within the project areas will be also used to extend the public one, still guaranteeing that private applications receive the expected performance.

The MPN’s ability to customize network parameters and allocate resources based on specific requirements allows for optimized performance tailored to the unique demands of applications like immersive learning and data analytics.

It will also enable private terminals to access public network coverage areas with a special profile, ensuring the performance required for the use cases. Additionally, the coverage provided within the project areas will be used to extend the public network while guaranteeing that private applications receive the expected performance.
