Abstract
The present disclosure provides embodiments in which computing (e.g., edge computing) is part of base station (BS) capability. These embodiments may enable conducting computing offloading between a user equipment (UE) and BS in the radio access network (RAN), for example, compute in the RAN, and deliver “true” edge computing user experience. Other embodiments may be described and claimed.
Claims12
One or more non-transitory computer-readable media (NTCRM) having instructions, stored thereon, that when executed by one or more processors cause a user equipment (UE) to:
- perform a workload offloading capabilities exchange with a base station (BS);
- perform a radio link (RL) establishment with the BS;
- initiate workload offloading to the BS;
- and
- offload computational tasks to the BS for execution.
