Web Services for Radio Resource Control

Mobile Edge Computing (MEC) supports network function virtualization and it brings network service intelligence close to the network edge. MEC services provide low level radio and network information to authorized applications. Communication between MEC services and applications is according to the principles of Service-oriented Architecture (SOA). In this paper, we propose an approach to design application programming interfaces for MECWeb Services that may be used by RAN analytics applications to adapt content delivery in real-time improving quality of experience to the end users. Web Service interfaces are mapped onto network protocols.
