Abstract

The main drivers for the mobile core network evolution is to serve the future challenges and set the way to 5G networks with need for high capacity and low latency. Different technologies such as Network Functions Virtualization (NFV) and Software Defined Networking (SDN) are being considered to address the future needs of 5G networks. However, future applications such as Internet of Things (IoT), video services and others still unveiled will have different requirements, which emphasize the need for the dynamic scalability of the network functionality. The means for efficient network resource operability seems to be even more important than the future network element costs. This paper provides the analysis of different technologies such as SDN and NFV that offer different architectural options to address the needs of 5G networks. The options under consideration in this paper may differ mainly in the extent of what SDN principles are applied to mobile specific functions or to transport network functions only.

广义移动网络架构中SDN和NFV的融合

移动核心网演进的主要驱动力是服务未来的挑战，并为需要高容量和低延迟的5G网络铺平道路。不同的技术，如网络功能虚拟化(NFV)和软件定义网络(SDN)正在考虑解决5G网络的未来需求。然而，未来的应用，如物联网(IoT)、视频服务和其他尚未公布的应用，将有不同的需求，这强调了对网络功能动态可扩展性的需求。有效的网络资源可操作性的手段似乎比未来网元成本更重要。本文分析了不同的技术，如SDN和NFV，提供不同的架构选择，以满足5G网络的需求。本文所考虑的选项可能主要在SDN原则应用于移动特定功能或仅应用于传输网络功能的程度上有所不同。
