Abstract

This research compares the performance of two widely used open-source 5G core (5GC) platforms, Free5GC and Open5GS, in a resource-constrained private network environment. While previous studies have mainly focused on feature comparison or large-scale deployments, performance under limited computational resources has received less attention, particularly for small-scale enterprise use cases. In this work, both platforms are integrated with UERANSIM to emulate end-to-end 5G communication and evaluated under dynamic user equipment (UE) scaling. Each 5GC instance and simulator component is allocated one CPU core and 2 GB of memory. Performance is assessed using key Quality of Service (QoS) metrics, including throughput, latency, packet loss, and resource utilization (CPU and memory), under both TCP and UDP traffic. The results show that Open5GS consistently provides better performance than Free5GC. It achieves up to 10.58 Mbps throughput compared to 9.22 Mbps and maintains lower latency around 0.72–0.73 ms, while Free5GC reaches up to 1.20 ms as the number of UEs increases. In addition, Free5GC reaches high CPU utilization earlier under increasing load. These differences are mainly related to its microservice-based architecture, which introduces additional processing overhead.

Abstract

Software-defined networking (SDN) is becoming increasingly popular because of features such as programming control, embedded monitoring, fine-grained control, flexibility, support for many tenants, and scalability. Problems with the prior design, known as the conventional network, include the need to configure each network device individually, decentralized control, and a persistent issue with tenant enforcement for multitenant support. Tenants are unable to administer their networks without disturbing their neighbours. In this research, network slicing on SDN will ensure tenant isolation using FlowVisor and an SDN controller. Flowspace, which is part of FlowVisor capable of implementing network isolation, is for isolation in this research. Multitenancy is supported in SDN via the network slicing technique. Two types of renters were employed, and two testing procedures connectivity and functionality were run to meet the research objectives. This research produced several findings, including that all hosts were correctly linked, and the connection was achieved without turning on FlowVisor. The host function can only send and receive data from hosts with the same tenant. The research results show that FlowVisor can be applied for isolation enforcement. As a result of each tenant utilising their slice of the network without being interrupted by other slices, this research finds that utilising FlowVisor to construct Flowspace can segment the network to allow multitenancy. Expanding the number of slices for more study and testing in a real-world setting is possible.
