Abstract EN
The fifth generation (5G) of cellular networks promises to be a major step in the evolution of wireless technology.
5G is planned to be used in a very broad set of application scenarios.
These scenarios have strict heterogeneous requirements that will be accomplished by enhancements on the radio access network and a collection of innovative wireless technologies.
Softwarization technologies, such as Software-Defined Networking (SDN) and Network Function Virtualization (NFV), will play a key role in integrating these different technologies.
Network slicing emerges as a cost-efficient solution for the implementation of the diverse 5G requirements and verticals.
The 5G radio access and core networks will be based on a SDN/NFV infrastructure, which will be able to orchestrate the resources and control the network in order to efficiently and flexibly and with scalability provide network services.
In this paper, we present the up-to-date status of the software-defined 5G radio access and core networks and a broad range of future research challenges on the orchestration and control aspects.
