D3.2: SPEED-5G enhanced functional and system architecture, scenarios and performance evaluation metrics

Abstract

This deliverable contains a detailed description of the use cases considered in SPEED-5G, which will be used as a basis for demonstration in project. These use cases are Dynamic Channel selection, Load balancing, carrier aggregation. This deliverable also explains the SPEED-5G architecture design principles, which is based on software-defined networking and network function virtualisation. The degree of virtualisation is further illustrated by a number of novel contributions from involved partners. In the end, KPIs for each use case are presented, along with the description of how these KPIs can support 5G-PPP KPIs.
