Modal verbs terminology In the present document “shall“, “shall not“, “should“, “should not“, “may“, “need not“, “will“, “will not“, “can“ and “cannot“ are to be interpreted as described in clause 3.2 of the ETSI Drafting Rules (Verbal forms for the expression of prov

Introduction Mobile-Edge Computing provides IT service environment and cloud-computing capabilities within the Radio Access Network (RAN) in close proximity to mobile device. MEC aims to reduce l

18、atency, ensure highly efficient network operation, service delivery and ultimate personal experience. The term “Edge“ in this context means the radio base station itself (eNodeB, RNC, etc.), and servers within the radio network (e.g. at “aggregation points“). The presence of MEC server at the edge o

19、f the RAN allows exposure to real-time radio and network information (such as subscriber location, cell load, etc.) that can be leveraged by applications and services to offer context-related services; these services are capable of differentiating the mobile broadband experience. The Mobile-Edge Com

20、puting environment creates a new value chain and an energized ecosystem, which in turn can create new opportunities for mobile operators, application and content providers whilst enabling them to play complementary and profitable roles. Based on innovation and business value, this value chain will a

21、llow all players to benefit from greater cooperation and better monetize the mobile broadband experience. Mobile Operators can open up the radio network edge to third-party partners, allowing them to rapidly deploy innovative applications and services towards mobile subscribers, enterprises and othe

22、r vertical segments. For application developers and content providers, the RAN edge offers a service environment with ultra-low latency and high bandwidth as well as direct access to real-time radio and network information. Mobile-Edge Computing allows content, services and applications to be accele

23、rated, increasing responsiveness from the edge. The customer experience can be proactively maintained through efficient network and service operations, based on insight into the radio and network conditions. Network vendors and technology providers can provide RAN equipment and base stations enhance

24、d with cloud-computing capabilities, by offering more powerful and flexible network elements able to satisfy the increasing needs of the communication world. The goal of the present document is to describe some service scenarios that can be delivered through the use of Mobile-Edge Computing. These s

25、erve as examples of how MEC can stimulate innovative services and applications that would create a better quality of experience for the end user. MEC will enable a large number of new kinds of applications and services for multiple sectors (such as consumer, enterprise, health, etc.). ETSI ETSI GS M

26、EC-IEG 004 V1.1.1 (2015-11) 5 1 Scope The present document introduces a number of service scenarios that would benefit from the introduction of Mobile-Edge Computing (MEC) technology. Mobile-Edge Computing enhances the Mobile Access Network with MEC servers that enable applications to run in the mob

27、ile edge. Due to the proximity of the server into the Access network, there is a latency reduction of delivering such applications or services. Such applications can expose information that can be used to optimize the network and services, reduce latency, and support creating personalized and contex

28、tualized services. Moreover, new and innovative analytics services enable the operator to monitor usage and service quality. Internet of Things (IOT) applications or enterprise communications can benefit greatly from MEC, as it allows service delivery in close proximity to the actual terminal device

29、s. The focus of the present document is to introduce or provide a non-exhaustive set of service scenarios. It is not the intent nor does the present document provide any requirements. 2 References 2.1 Normative references References are either specific (identified by date of publication and/or editi

38、rio 4.1.1 Description of scenario Eliminating mobile content delivery inefficiencies by guiding sources as to real-time network capacity. A Radio Analytics application located at the RAN provides the video server with an indication on the throughput estimated to be available at the radio downlink in

39、terface. The information can be used to assist TCP congestion control decisions and also to ensure that the application-level coding matches the estimated capacity at the radio downlink. 4.1.2 Motivation Improve the end users Quality of Experience (QoE) by reducing the contents time-to-start as well

40、 as video-stall occurrences, and guarantee maximum utilization of the radio networks resources. 4.1.3 Problem statement The behaviour of the Transmission Control Protocol (TCP), which assumes that network congestion is the primary cause for packet loss and high delay, can lead to the inefficient use

41、 of a cellular networks resources and degrade application performance and user experience. The root cause for this inefficiency lies in the fact that TCP has difficulty adapting to rapidly varying network conditions. In cellular networks, the bandwidth available for end devices can vary by an order

42、of magnitude within a few seconds due to changes in the underlying radio channel conditions, caused by the movement of devices, as well as changes in system load when other devices enter and leave the network. 4.1.4 Relation to MEC Figure 1 shows an example of the intelligent video acceleration serv

43、ice scenario. In this scenario, a Radio Analytics application, which resides in a MEC server, provides the video server with a near real-time indication on the throughput estimated to be available at the radio downlink interface. ETSI ETSI GS MEC-IEG 004 V1.1.1 (2015-11) 7 Figure 1: Intelligent Vide

44、o Acceleration The video server may use this information to assist TCP congestion control decisions, for example in selecting the initial window size, setting the value of the congestion window during the congestion avoidance phase, and adjusting the size of the congestion window when the conditions

45、 on the “radio link“ deteriorate. In other words, with this additional information, TCP does not need to overload the network when probing for available resources, nor does it need to rely on heuristics to reduce its sending rate after a congestion episode. This information may also be used to ensur

46、e that the application level coding matches the estimated capacity at the radio downlink. The aim of all of these improvements is to enhance the end users quality of experience by reducing the contents time-to-start as well as video-stall occurrences, and to guarantee maximum utilization of the radi

47、o networks resources. Mobile-edge Computing allows the Radio Analytics application to be deployed on top of platforms implemented by different vendors and across multi-operator networks. This ensures efficient utilization of the network resources in addition to enhanced quality of experience for the

48、 vast majority of end users. 4.2 Video stream analysis service scenario 4.2.1 Description of scenario Consider a video based monitoring system such as vehicle license plate recognition for example to monitor vehicles entering and exiting an area of the city, car parks, for security purposes, etc. Li

49、cense plate information can be captured and sent to a cloud based monitoring service. It may be useful to extract other information from such video streams. 4.2.2 Motivation Moving the video analysis away from the video camera reduces the cost of such cameras, especially when numerous cameras need to be deployed. Furthermore, performing the analysis locally, i.e. close to the mobile base station, mitigates the need to transmit high data video streams when only small pieces of information are required to be extracted from these video streams. 4.2.3 Problem statement Cur
