The future of mobile and internet technologies are manifesting advancements beyond the existing scope of science. The concepts of automated driving, augmented-reality, and machine-type-communication are quite sophisticated and require an elevation of the current mobile infrastructure for launching. The fifth-generation (5G) mobile technology serves as the solution, though it lacks a proximate networking infrastructure to satisfy the service guarantees. Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) envisages such an edge computing platform. In this survey, we are revealing security vulnerabilities of key 5G-based use cases deployed in the MEC context. Probable security flows of each case are specified, while countermeasures are proposed for mitigating them.

Multi Access

This paper proposes a potential enhancement of handover for the next-generation multi-tier cellular network, utilizing two fifth-generation (5G) enabling technologies: multi-access edge computing (MEC) and machine learning (ML). MEC and ML techniques are the primary enablers for enhanced mobile broadband (eMBB) and ultra-reliable and low latency communication (URLLC). The subset of ML chosen for this research is deep learning (DL), as it is adept at learning long-term dependencies. A variant of artificial neural networks called a long short-term memory (LSTM) network is used in conjunction with a look-up table (LUT) as part of the proposed solution. Subsequently, edge computing virtualization methods are utilized to reduce handover latency and increase the overall throughput of the network. A realistic simulation of the proposed solution in a multi-tier 5G radio access network (RAN) showed a 40–60% improvement in overall throughput. Although the proposed scheme may increase the number of handovers, it is effective in reducing the handover failure (HOF) and ping-pong rates by 30% and 86%, respectively, compared to the current 3GPP scheme.

Network programmability and edge computing as key features of next generation communications enable innovative services. While the programmability is focused on the core network of the fifth-generation system, the edge computing moves the network intelligence to the radio access network. This paper presents a study on the programmability of connectivity control as a function of radio access network using Multi-access Edge Computing. The capability of using more than one radio access technology simultaneously enhances reliability and increases the throughput, especially in dense networks. Opening the radio access network interfaces for programmability of multi-connectivity enables analytics applications to control the device connections to multiple radio links simultaneously based on information of radio conditions, user location or specific policies. The research novelty is in opening the radio access network interfaces for edge applications to access connectivity control.
