Initial specification and implementation of the building blocks

D41 will provide system design specification of 5G core network for industrial applications MEC Cloud including MEE VNF and NFV infrastructure and 5G RAN system composed of CPE and gNB which comply with the 3GPP standard of eMBB and URLLC features On the one hand D41 will detail the development of a 5G core prototype including basic functions like AMF SMF AUSF UDM and UPF and a NFVlike lightweight orchestration framework to handle network virtualization VNF placement and lifecycle management The NFV infrastructure which is composed of OpenStack and SDN networks will be developed On the other hand D41 will provide subsystem design specification which defined architecture modules and mechanisms for the MEC Cloud These components will fuel the lab integration reported in D51
