Abstract:
During these last two decades, Core Network has undergone profound changes that have provided a catalog of diversified services and applications to customers. In the context of succeeding 5G network, the next evolution will represent an important rupture with legacy networks, and will be constituted of new scenarios that can be completely virtualized. This implies a series of challenges related to new 5G core network function specificities and how to map these entities into a set of virtual networks, named Network Slices. In order to better understand these challenges, we present the evolution of cellular core network functions from 3G to 5G and of their mapping requirements. Proposing new levels of orchestration decisions based on 3rd Generation Partnership Project technical reports, we also introduce different aspects that must be taken into account in designing and modeling such virtual networks.
