基于区块链的移动互联网卸载NextGen服务架构
Blockchain-Enabled NextGen Service Architecture for Mobile Internet Offload
摘要:
全球不同代移动蜂窝网络的融合为最终用户带来了不同的数据速度体验。目前,对于一个移动网络运营商(MNO)的订户使用WiFi提供商的服务,没有适当的定义机制。蜂窝和数据服务提供商也没有标准化的程序来安全地相互交互,并允许他们的订户在现收现付的基础上使用第三方服务。本文提出了一个基于区块链的卸载框架,允许移动运营商的用户暂时使用另一个MNO或WiFi提供商的高速网络。智能合约允许各种实体,如MNO,经纪人和WiFi提供商自动执行相互协议,以安全和受控的方式利用第三方基础设施。为了测试所提出的框架,用户从3G/4G/4G-LTE/5G网络卸载到固定宽带WiFi网络,并对结果进行分析。卸载框架使用ns-3网络模拟器实现,以太坊区块链智能合约功能用于结算发票。
英文摘要:
The amalgamation of different generations of mobile cellular networks around the globe has resulted in diverse data speed experiences for end users. At present there are no defined mechanisms in place for a subscriber of one mobile network operator (MNO) to use the services of a WiFi provider. Cellular and Data Service providers also have no standardized procedures to securely interact with each other, and to allow their subscribers to use third party services on a pay-as-you-go basis. This paper proposes a blockchain-based offloading framework that allows a subscriber of a mobile operator to temporarily use another MNO or WiFi provider's higher speed network. Smart contracts allow diverse entities such as MNOs, Brokers and WiFi Providers to automatically execute mutual agreements to enable the utilization of third party infrastructure in a secure and controlled manner. To test the proposed framework, the offloading of a subscriber from 3G/4G/4G-LTE/5G networks to a fixed broadband WiFi network was carried out and the results analyzed. The offloading framework was implemented using the ns-3 network simulator, and the Ethereum blockchain smart contract features were used for the settlement of invoices.
