D3.2 Design and Prototyping of SliceNet Virtualised 5G RAN core Infrastructure

Download

Abstract

This document reports all the activities related to the design and prototyping of a virtualized 5G Radio Access Network (RAN)-Core infrastructure, as part of the SliceNet end-to-end slicing-friendly infrastructure. A slice-friendly RAN-Core infrastructure leverages two open source ecosystems, namely, the OpenAirInterface (OAI) and Mosaic5G. OAI is an open-source, software-based, standard-compliant LTE ecosystem for prototyping 5G Mobile Networks. Building on top of OAI, Mosaic5G serves as an open-source lightweight 5G service delivery platform. In order to provide a virtualized infrastructure deployment that covers the SliceNet use cases, different methods for deploying a virtualised 5G infrastructure are highlighted via several examples for the deployment of OAI-based 5G services.
