The concept of Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) is introduced with the intention to improve network performance and quality of experience for end users. MEC brings cloud capabilities at the network edge and thus it helps to reduce the latency, increases network efficiency and security, providing context and radio network information awareness for applications. The MEC deployment closer to the Radio Access Network (RAN) is the best way to receive radio network and location information, to manage the bandwidth, and...

This paper presents a study on deployment of policy based quality of service management at the mobile network edge. The requirements of fifth generation (5G) services for high bandwidth, low latency, reliability and availability can be fulfilled by Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) former Mobile Edge Computing, which distributes cloud capabilities in the Radio Access Network. The paper studies the MEC potential for monitoring of accumulated usage of network resources based on data traffic volume on per session or ...
