Abstract :
Adapting virtualization concepts to satisfy many of today´s network telecommunication challenges receives more and more attention. We have developed virtual environment design to allow the coexistence of virtual networks and their respective operators. In our approach, virtualized wireless access equipment are deployed to provide users more flexibility to access their services delivered by the allocated virtual networks. In this paper, we describe how we improved virtual network urbanization by including virtualized access point equipment. We developed this approach for supporting wireless network advantages such as mobility, coverage areas, installation speed and simplicity. The relevant results of the deployment are exposed.
