This study presents a holistic approach for managing diverse 5G vehicular services in the transport industry. It analyzes network KPIs and validates feasibility through experimental investigation of a 5G pilot.
Area of Science:
- Telecommunications Engineering
- Network Infrastructure
- Vehicular Technology
Background:
- The 5G transition enables diverse mobile applications across vertical industries, requiring unified network infrastructure.
- Facilitating distinct service requirements under a single network necessitates a holistic approach to service lifecycle management.
- The 5G-HEART project specifically addresses the integration of 5G for Health, Aquaculture, and Transport verticals.
Purpose of the Study:
- To present a holistic lifecycle management approach for vehicular services within the 5G framework.
- To define and analyze network Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) for vehicular services based on user requirements.
- To experimentally validate the feasibility and effectiveness of a unified 5G pilot for delivering these services.
Main Methods:
- Holistic analysis of vehicular service requirements and lifecycle management.
- Definition and interpretation of network KPIs derived from user needs.
- Experimental investigation and trialling of a unified 5G pilot infrastructure.
Main Results:
- Identification of conflicting and converging network needs for vehicular services.
- Characterization of a real unified 5G pilot's capabilities for service delivery.
- Validation of the theoretical analysis through initial trial results.
Conclusions:
- A holistic lifecycle management approach is crucial for realizing concurrent vehicular services on 5G networks.
- Experimental validation confirms the effectiveness and feasibility of the proposed 5G-HEART framework for transport use cases.
- The study provides a comprehensive overview of requirement analysis, KPI definition, and infrastructure evaluation for 5G vehicular services.
