Reference architecture for slicing in LoRAWAN networks
Abstract
This document describes the basic functional architecture of the Intelligentisa project. This document reviews all the elements necessary to run a LoRAWAN network and the associated functions. The objective is to integrate the functional architecture into an orchestration framework, possibly by virtualizing some fundamental functions, such as LoRAWAN network Servers (LNSs). This requires to identify basic functional blocks, in particular telemetry exploiting metrics from the substrate virtualized infrastructure as well as supported LoRAWAN networks, and orchestration functions for the deployment and the optimization of LoRAWAN networks to achieve some performance objectives. In a first step, all these issues are considered without slicing considerations and in a second step, the concept of slicing in the context of LoRAWAN networks is introduced.
