Abstract

In recent trends, multi-access edge computing (MEC) is becoming a realistic framework for extensive social networking. The rapid proliferation of internet of things (IoT) devices has led to an unprecedented increase in data generation, placing significant strain on conventional cloud computing infrastructure. MEC also supports ultra-reliable and low latency communications (URLLC) by delivering information and computational resources more quickly to mobile users. As a result, the need for low-latency and reliable communication has become paramount. This paper proposes an MEC architecture that integrates software defined networking (SDN) and virtualization techniques, where MEC enables the orchestration and organization of mobile edge hosts (MEH). Furthermore, the proposed MEC-SDN design minimizes latency while ensuring consistent ultra-low latency communications. The result analysis clearly demonstrates that the proposed MEC-SDN model achieves latency of 6-14 ms, bandwidth of 5.2 Mbits/sec, and SDN-BWMS of 5.4 Mbits/sec, outperforming the existing SDN-Mobile Core Network model. Mobile edge systems are enabled in this research to provide mobility support for users.
