An Integrated, Virtualized Joint Edge and Fog Computing System with Multi-RAT Convergence
2018
Notably, developing an innovative architectural network paradigm is essential to address the technical challenging of 5G applications' requirements in a unified platform. Forthcoming applications will provide a wide range of networking, computing and storage capabilities closer to the end-users. In this context, the 5G-PPP Phase two project named “5G-CORAL: A 5G Convergent Virtualized Radio Access Network Living at the Edge” aims at identifying and experimentally validating which are the key technology innovations allowing for the development of a convergent 5G multi-RAT access based on a virtualized Edge and Fog architecture being scalable, flexible and interoperable with other domains including transport, core network and distant Clouds. In 5G-CORAL, an architecture is proposed based on ETSI MEC and ETSI NFV frameworks in a unified platform. Then, a set of exemplary use cases benefiting from Edge and Fog networks in near proximity of the end-user are proposed for demonstration on top of connected car, shopping mall and high-speed train platforms.
