Накратко на български

Мобилните мрежи се изследват чрез създаване на архитектура, при която устройствата се свързват към общ ресурс от предаватели, вместо към една точка. Това помага за намаляване на времето за реакция и подобряване на устойчивостта на 5G връзките.

Single Point Of aTtachment communications empowered by cLoud computing and bIG data analytics running on-top of massively distributed and loosely-coupled Heterogeneous mobile data neTworks

The mobile network ecosystem has changed dramatically in the last few years and now includes: i) a handful of network operators with heterogeneous RATs, ii) small cells that are randomly deployed by the end users, iii) a dense multitude of ubiquitous wireless objects, a.k.a. ‘things’, with diverse functional capabilities, iv) divergent traffic patterns among different networks, markets, and user types, and v) diverse processing, communication and storage capacity at the edge network. Besides, the operational capacity of the network core has dramatically increased due to the pooling of shared communication, computing and storage resources. This drastic transform of the mobile network ecosystem has revealed key vulnerabilities and performance limitations inherent to handling the connectivity of mobile terminals by a single point of attachment at the network edge. Towards addressing these vulnerabilities and setting the foundations of the 5G and beyond mobile data network, in SPOTLIGHT we analyze, design, and optimize the performance of a disruptive new mobile network architecture: the SPOTLIGHT architecture. This architecture aims to break performance limitations of the currently loosely inter-connected, resource-fragmented and isolated in operation mobile network ecosystem, by transforming the existing multi-layered set of attachment points to a flat coalition of massively distributed transceivers utilizing a common pool of energy, radio, computing and storage resources that are optimally handled by a cloud-empowered network core. To further reduce response time and enhance network resilience, all functions necessary for mobile communications will be subject of: i) massive parallelization in cloud platforms at the network core (cloud-empowered network management), and ii) big data analysis on-top of a virtual pool of shared energy, radio, computing and storage resources at the network edge (fog-inspired network optimization).

Цел на проекта

To handle the unprecedented demand for mobile data traffic, different vendors, operators and research programmes have aimed to develop radio access technologies (RATs) that boost physical-layer link capacity, utilize millimeter wave radio, or further densify network topology. Notable steps have also been made towards shifting baseband processing from the (currently) ultra dense network edge to a central location where coordinated resource management will be performed. Nonetheless, the today’s mobile network ecosystem includes vastly heterogeneous, evidently overlapping (in coverage) and fully isolated (in operation) attachment points that still handle most of the functions necessary for mobile data communications independently. Aiming to meet and surpass the requirements set for the 5G-and-Beyond mobile data network, in SPOTLIGHT we will create a fully-integrated and multi-disciplinary network of Early Stage Researchers (ESRs) that will analyze, design, and optimize the performance of a disruptive new mobile network architecture: the SPOTLIGHT architecture. This architecture promises to break performance limitations present to the currently loosely inter-connected, resource-fragmented and isolated in operation mobile network ecosystem, by transforming the currently loosely-coupled multitude of heterogeneous and multi-layered RATs to a flat coalition of massively distributed antenna sub-systems that are optimally orchestrated by a cloud-empowered network core. Our primary aim will be to support for the first time self-including yet ultra-reliable radio communications at the edge network. To further reduce response time and enhance network resilience, all functions necessary for mobile communications will be subject of i) massive parallelization in cloud platforms at the network core and ii) big data analysis running on-top of a virtual pool of shared energy, radio, computing and storage resources at the network.
