Cloudscape presentation 1 Control Plane Data Characterisation for a 5G NFV Environment Cristoffer Leite University of Brasília
Cloudscape presentation 2 Use Cases: Expand 5G on Remote Areas
Cloudscape presentation 3 • ETSI NFV Model • Used by 5G-PPP Projects o 5Gcar, NRG-5, 5G 5G- MoNArch, etc • Open Source MANO o Orchestrator • OpenStack o VIM • Raspberry Pi 3B/3B+/Zero Network Function Virtualisation
Cloudscape presentation 4 Interfaces Requirements Objective:  Deploy long range (10-15 km) and low energy consumption virtual infrastructure control communication for power constrained devices VIM Communication (Control) VNF Communication In-band
Cloudscape presentation 5 Control Plane Data Characterisation • Principal Factors: o Long distances o Small control messages o Power Efficiency Mini-ITX RPi ~~ Approach:  Use of emerging Low-Power Wide Area technologies such as LoRa
Cloudscape presentation 6 Preliminary Experimentation: Results Throughput(Bits/s)Throughput(Bits/s) Sent Data Received Data Controller to Compute Compute to Controller DNS service VNF Router/AP VNF Router/AP VNF RPi RPi NFVI VPN server Mini-ITX Physical link Virtual link 5GC VNF RPi Router/AP VNF SIP Core VNF NAT 5GRange GW VNF VPN Scenario: VNF Creation
Cloudscape presentation 7 Preliminary Experimentation: Results Throughput(Bits/s) Total Throughput - Peak: 3.99 kbps - Median: 0,35 kbps - Peak Median • Min: 1.36 kbps • Max: 1.64 kbps - 5378 requests on 20 min - 4.5 requests per second First Impression - Low Data Rates - High number of requests - Periodic peaks
Cloudscape presentation 8 • Define Better Samples o VNF shutdown o Keep-alive messages • Run Reliability Tests • Run Throughput Comparison Tests o Wi-Fi x LoRa Next Steps
