Strategies for UPF placement in 5G and beyond networks
Irian Leyva Pupo
Abstract:(English) This doctoral thesis focuses on the design of strategies (i.e., exact and heuristic-based methods) to optimize the placement and reconfiguration of user plane functions (UPFs) in 5G and beyond networks. These solutions seek to ensure QoS satisfaction while reducing the expenditures associated with deploying and operating 5G services. To this end, we study the UPF placement problem (UPP) using three lines of research: static placement, dynamic placement, and reconfiguration scheduling. For each, we co… Show more
