摘要
第五代(5G)移动网络可灵活应对各种新兴用例。无线电虚拟化可使多个异构虚拟无线电在同一硬件上共存,从而提高灵活性。无线电设备虚拟化的一种方法是使用虚拟机和容器在通用多用途无线电硬件上复用软件无线电实施。本文回顾了这方面的安全问题,评估了软件定义无线电(SDR)设备的通信实验界限,并评估了虚拟化对无线电虚拟化性能的影响。这项研究旨在确定虚拟环境是否适合 SDR 应用。结果表明,基于容器的无线电虚拟化性能可与在本地 Linux 上运行的 SDR 应用程序相媲美。
A comprehensive evaluation of software-defined radio performance in virtualized environments for radio access networks
Fifth-generation (5G) mobile networks offer flexibility to address various emerging use cases. Radio virtualization enhances flexibility by enabling multiple heterogeneous virtual radios to coexist on the same hardware. One method for virtualizing radio devices involves using virtual machines and containers to multiplex software radio implementations over generic multipurpose radio hardware. This paper reviews security issues in this context, evaluates the experimental bounds of communication for software-defined radio (SDR) devices, and assesses virtualization’s impact on radio virtualization’s performance. This study aims to determine the suitability of virtual environments for SDR applications. The results indicate that container-based radio virtualization performance is comparable to SDR applications running on native Linux.
期刊介绍:
Annals of Telecommunications is an international journal publishing original peer-reviewed papers in the field of telecommunications. It covers all the essential branches of modern telecommunications, ranging from digital communications to communication networks and the internet, to software, protocols and services, uses and economics. This large spectrum of topics accounts for the rapid convergence through telecommunications of the underlying technologies in computers, communications, content management towards the emergence of the information and knowledge society. As a consequence, the Journal provides a medium for exchanging research results and technological achievements accomplished by the European and international scientific community from academia and industry.
