Unlocking the true potential of Mobile Edge Computing in Mobile Networks

Despite the extensive interest in MEC, widespread deployment faces major hurdles as previously available MEC solutions implement proprietary non-3GPP standard solutions in order to maintain compatibility with security, legal intercept, charging, paging. These solutions require deep changes in operator network architecture, which is challenging for operators and are yet unable to provide highly secure and reliable low latency services (e.g. Industry4.0) that must operate independently of backhaul
