LTE Network Virtualization Feasibility Study

As cloud computing emerges as the next novel concept in computer science, it becomes clear that the model applied in large data storage systems used to resolve issues coming forth from an increasing demand, could also be used to resolve the very high bandwidth requirements on access networks, core network equipment and long communication paths between users and servers in the today´s cellular networks. Also, today´s with the development of wireless access technologies (3/4 G, LTE and WiMAX), the standard for wireless communication of high speed data for mobile phones and data terminals, are set to power the cloud computing world as well and will see the emergence of a combine that will power business operations. This Paper gives a survey of applying the cloud computing model in mobile devices MCC, and LTE-based cellular systems architecture which helps have an overview of cloud computing, MCC and LTE architecture including the definition, architecture, and applications. In addition, the advantages and disadvantages of MCC are discussed.
