Abstract
Fifth generation (5G) mobile system is designed to support mission critical communications which requires significantly reduced delays and high reliability. Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) technology, as a key component of 5G, may satisfy the strong requirements for network resilience and latency. The most benefit from the advantages of MEC may be achieved in case of MEC deployment as close as to the network edge. In this paper, we consider two MEC deployment scenarios for mission critical communications, and estimate the latency introduced by the control plane in provisioning of real time radio network information.
