Mathieu Bouet, Vania Conan, Hicham Khalife, Kevin Phemius, Jawad, Seddar

TL;DR
This paper introduces MUREN, an architecture that integrates SDN, SDR, and MEC to efficiently manage traffic and adapt radio parameters in multi-radio edge networks, enhancing service delivery at the network edge.
Contribution
The paper presents a novel multi-radio edge node architecture that combines SDN, SDR, and MEC, with a proof-of-concept implementation and experimental validation.
Findings
Centralized MEC intelligence enables adaptive radio reconfiguration.
The architecture guarantees edge service requirements under varying wireless conditions.
Proof-of-concept demonstrates effective traffic management and radio adaptation.
Abstract
To meet the growing local and distributed computing needs, the cloud is now descending to the network edge and sometimes to user equipments. This approach aims at distributing computing, data processing, and networking services closer to the end users. Instead of concentrating data and computation in a small number of large clouds, many edge systems are envisioned to be deployed close to the end users or where computing and intelligent networking can best meet user needs. In this paper, we go further converging such massively distributed computing systems with multiple radio accesses. We propose an architecture called MUREN (Multi-Radio Edge Node) for managing traffic in future mobile edge networks. Our solution is based on the Mobile Edge Cloud (MEC) architecture and its close interaction with Software Defined Networking (SDN), the whole jointly interacting with Software-Defined Radios…
