Description
Summary:With network slicing, Mobile Network Operators can accommodate on a common network infrastructure various customized services from Service Providers (SPs). Usually, the Service Function Chains belonging to a slice are deployed on a best-effort basis. Nothing ensures that enough infrastructure resources can be allocated to satisfy the demands of SPs. This paper introduces a radio resources provisioning approach to satisfy the demands of slices with radio coverage constraints. By provisioning, we ensure that enough resources are reserved for further SFC deployment. Numerical results show the effectiveness of the proposed provisioning framework for a slice deployment on a mobile network infrastructure satisfying a minimum data rate for users in the geographical areas where services have to be made available.
