Popis: | Emerging scenarios of vertical industries, such as, adaptive manufacturing, cooperative autonomous driving, and real-time logistics demand for seamless communication among mobile entities, among them ground conveyors, user terminals, cars, or sensors. In practice, this leads to challenging requirements in terms of latency, bandwidth, availability, reliability, etc. that current mobile communications technologies, including cellular networks and IEEE 802-based solutions, do not fully account for. When deployed individually, neither of them fulfills the broad range of requirements, whereas a coordinated co-deployment suffers from the lack of efficient network management solutions as well as from insufficiently defined operating and owner structures for these mixed system deployments. Therefore, this work proposes a concept for an intelligent cross-domain 5G network management system and related optimization functions. In particular, the design of a cognitive, joint management of mobile industrial and cellular networks is outlined. Further, cognitive methods and virtualization techniques are motivated as major enablers. Advantages include an operator-grade network management of local industrial networks as well as a seamless integration with cellular networks. Following 5G design principles, the suggested network management system is also extensible to emerging radio access technologies (RATs) in the 5G context. |
