Abstract
Systems and methods provide an intelligent vehicle to everything (iV2X) service that ensures robust communication of teleoperations and other data. An edge slice proxy system is used to incorporate edge platforms into network slicing considerations. A network device may receive a request for a connection from an end device, such as a vehicle requiring the iV2X service, via wireless signals. The network device may detect that the request is a request for an iV2X service and assign the end device to a network slice that supports stateful and robust iV2X services. The network slice may include one of the virtual network functions executed on the edge platform.
Claims20
A method, comprising:
- generating, by one or more network devices in a wireless core network, network slice data for each network slice available via a wireless station, wherein the network slice data includes availability of virtual network functions executed on an edge platform;
- receiving, by one or more network devices, a request for a connection from an end device via wireless signals;
- detecting, by the one or more network devices, that the request is a request for an intelligent vehicle to everything (iV2X) service;
- and
- assigning, by the one or more network devices, the end device to a network slice that supports the iV2X service, wherein the network slice includes one of the virtual network functions executed on the edge platform.
A system, comprising:
- one or more network devices including one or more processors to execute instructions to:
- generate network slice data for each network slice available via a wireless station, wherein the network slice data includes availability of virtual network functions executed on an edge platform;
- receive a request for a connection from an end device via wireless signals;
- detect that the request is a request for an intelligent vehicle to everything (iV2X) service;
- and
- assign, the end device to a network slice that supports the iV2X service, wherein the network slice includes one of the virtual network functions executed on the edge platform.
The system of claim 15, wherein the one or more processors are further to execute instructions to:
- send the model to the end device for implementation.
A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium storing instructions executable by a processor of a network device, which when executed by the processor cause the network device to:
- generate network slice data for each network slice available via a wireless station, wherein the network slice data includes availability of virtual network functions executed on an edge platform;
- receive a request for a connection from an end device via wireless signals;
- detect that the request is a request for an intelligent vehicle to everything (iV2X) service;
- and
- assign, the end device to a network slice that supports the iV2X service, wherein the network slice includes one of the virtual network functions executed on the edge platform.
