Background

With the advance of 5G network construction, in order to reduce network construction and operation and maintenance cost and improve network benefits and asset operation efficiency, co-construction and sharing become more and more common knowledge for operators to carry out infrastructure network construction.

Multi-access Edge Computing (MEC) is a novel network architecture concept, and can provide cloud Computing capability and an IT service environment at the Edge of a cellular network.
