Full-dimensional definable network capabilities by Congshan FAN, Xu ZHOU, Yifang QIN, Taixin LI

“…To solve the problems of single form of existing network capabilities, poor dynamics, low efficiency, and difficulty in adapting to the needs of specialized and personalized services in complex scenarios in the future, a full-dimensional definable network capability model was proposed.Based on the design concept of “network centric”, each layer of the network is opened up to realize the definition of full-dimensional network capabilities such as communication subjects, network functions, network resources, and security, and supports dynamic loading and evolutionary development.Through self-mapping of service requirements and self-organization of network capabilities, it can flexibly adapt to service development needs, and actively output diversified network endogenous capabilities to terminal services in a variety of interface forms, which will naturally adapt to the complex and uncertain evolution of future services.…”
