SaT5G: Edge delivery & offload via satellite multicast
This SaT5G demonstration centres on providing efficient multicast/broadcast delivery to network edges for content such as live broadcasts, ad-hoc broadcast/multicast streams, group communications, MEC VNF update distribution. The demonstration addresses digital divide resorption for public event management.
In terms of 5G functionalities, SaT5G investigates:
- Satellite access for self-backhaul.
- Support of Network slicing, SDN/NFV, Edge computing, Network Management and orchestration.
- Traffic steering between unicast and multicast resources.
- Secure multicast delivery with caching.
- Scheduled prefetching and dynamic real time video demos.
- Demo as edge MEC as part of MNO delivery to 5G network and for caching at a regional basis for backhaul or local at individual cells.
