Titel
SDN Orchestration to Optimize Meshed Millimeter-Wave Backhaul Networks for MEC-Enhanced eMBB Use Cases
Abstract
This paper presents a novel concept for enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB) communication using millimeterwave radio technologies enhanced by mobile edge computing to support a new class of applications requiring low latency and high data rates at the same time. The concept developed in the joint European/Japanese collaboration project 5G-MiEdge [1] builds on meshed backhaul topologies using millimeter wave links with beam forming capabilities and smart routing units for dynamic route, link and power management to be orchestrated by SDN. It is shown that dynamic changes in the topology at run time can be realized without experiencing losses in latency or throughput.
