Towards 5G: An Empirical Evaluation of Software-Defined End-to-End Network Slicing
indicators including network delay, data rate, reliability as well as security. To meet these criteria, 5G aims to provide network slices, i.e., virtually independent architectures on top of a single, unified [...] (LTE) Radio Access Network (RAN) down to individual User Equipments (UEs). Thereby, a prototypical 5G end-to-end slicing solution is designed and implemented. The system enables independent management …
