MEC – Applications Deployment and TCP Testing Using Simu5G
Dhulfiqar A. Alwahab, Norbert Pataki · 2023
Multi-Access Edge Computing (MEC) is a brand-new paradigm for application development since it is installed between the client and the conventional remote server to provide cloud computing services at the network’s edge and closer to the consumers. Particularly high bandwidth, low latency, real-time access to radio networks, position awareness, and flexible and expandable architecture for the services are advantages of this novel approach. This work analyses the performance of the MEC edge computing network without TCP and with TCP algorithms (TCP Reno, TCP NewReno, TCP Dump) under a 5G network. The performance analysis is done using a Simu5G tool. Results show that TCP NewReno is more compatible with MEC-5G network in terms of signal strength, and queue utilities.
