Title
No limits – smart cellular edges for cross-border continuity of automotive services
Author
Abstract
One of the major challenges in 5G-based Cooperative Connected and Automated Mobility is to ensure continuity of a service that is deployed on the network edge and used by a moving vehicle. We propose enablers for smart cellular edges, which support service continuity in cross-border scenarios by the timely preparation of a service instance in an anticipated topologically closer target edge, and by connecting the vehicle to such service instance before the cellular handover occurs. In this paper, we use the edge data centers of a German and Austrian mobile operator to showcase two main enabling pillars for edge service continuity, i.e., i) transparent edge bridging by means of a programmable data plane to serve a vehicle from the target edge before the vehicle performs handover to a different operator, and ii) smart applications, which apply data analytics to boost orchestration decisions for target edge preparation.
