Advantages of Co-Deployment of C-RAN and MEC in 5G

The fifth generation of mobile networks (5G) posterior network framework will be more advance than the fourth generation of mobile networks (4G) providing lower latency with no lagging in connection. This can be achieved by merging the Cloud-Radio Access Network (C-RAN) and Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) via Network Function Virtualization (NFV). This will make the network reliable, flexible, and more efficient. The application will be hosted on a cloud-based framework at an edge providing centralized access to data. This will also enhance the delay-sensitive applications by putting them at an edge where the user can access them within nanoseconds. This co deployment will take place by managing two Management orchestration (MANO) systems. The merging of these two technologies will allow the development that was needed in 5G with unlimited Long Term Evolution (LTE). This new enhancement will form 5G and give the telecommunication network a better path for data communication via virtualization on an edge. This type of enhancement will be a step further towards the beginning of a new era of technology that will get better and better in the coming years.
