  5. #ONESummit Diverse Service Requirements ITS IVI • P2P (sidelink) •

    Low latency & High reliability ☞ DSRC / Cellular V2X Safety • Cloud access (downlink) • High interactivity ☞ Cellular User Experience IoT • Cloud access (uplink) • Big data capacity • Leverage of latency allowance ☞ WLAN and Cellular Capacity
  6. #ONESummit Capacity Issue • Regional business forecast around 2025 Enterprise

    Telco Real-time Non-real-time Core BIG DATA Transaction: 60PB/month Connected car: 3M units* * Assumption: 12% global share and 25% regional ratio Traffic: 20GB /(month*unit) LBS FOT HDMAP Situation Emotion Assumption: 10GB/sec 2 month+ just for storing data Source: Our estimate

    core ③ Opportunistic Data Transfer ② Edge Computing ① Collecting Data in Need edge Load L M H Today’s Focus
  9. #ONESummit Automotive Edge Computing Consortium Cross-industry ecosystem for next generation

    connected cars and mobility services Launched in January 2018 as a NPO in the U.S. AUTOMOTIVE MOBILE COMMUNICATION CLOUD & BIG DATA ANALYTICS APPLICATION & SERVICES Members as of September 2020
  10. #ONESummit Challenges in Realizing Automotive Edge Computing • Edge Infrastructure

    • Mobile Network Connectivity • Edge Cloud Infrastructure • etc... • Edge Application • Distributed Application Design • Application Deployment • Edge Resource Management • etc... Operators Interest Lots of Standardization and implementation (ex. Akraino) End Users Interest Not much implementation yet?
  11. #ONESummit • Availability and scalability of each edge cloud is

    limited • Demand for communications and application processing between vehicles and edge cloud drastically changes by time and location • Significant delays and service outages may occur in the event of sudden local spikes in demands Challenges in Edge Cloud Application - Our Perspective
  12. #ONESummit Possible Approaches • There are various possible approaches to

    the problem • In this talk, two approaches are presented • Simple implementation and experimental results to check the feasibility of the approaches (1) Scale-out to adjacent edge clouds (2) Vehicle data upload control
  13. #ONESummit clustered Approach (1) Scale-out to Adjacent Edges • Idea

    • Clustering multiple edge clouds in the same region • Automatically scale-out to adjacent edge if a sudden local spike happens edge edge edge
  14. #ONESummit PoC Demo Implementation • Kubernetes and Knative for Serverless

    Computing for Multiple Adjacent Edge Sites • Knative https://knative.dev/
  15. #ONESummit Approach (2) Vehicle data upload control • Idea •

    Measure the number of vehicles connected to the edge cloud in real time • Adjust the amount of data sent from the vehicles according to the number of connections edge edge High data upload frequency High video resolution Low data upload frequency Low video resolution
  16. #ONESummit PoC Demo Implementation UEs eNodeB SPGW-U SPGW-C Video Recognition

    App Data Upload Control App • Prepared mobile network (LTE) emulation environment to provide MEC • with COMAC (ONF’s open source project) https://www.opennetworking.org/reference-designs/comac/ • Two applications (data upload control app, video recognition app) deployed as MEC applications • Data upload control application • Video recognition app (just as an example) Central Office MME HSS COMAC software based emulation MEC Applications
  17. #ONESummit Experiment Scenario UEs eNodeB SPGW-U SPGW-C Video Recognition App

    Data Upload Control App Central Office MME HSS (1) Notify # of current connected vehicles (2) Request vehicles to adjust upload data size by changing upload frequency and video resolution (3) Send recorded video from all vehicles to video recognition app
  18. #ONESummit Experimental Results • The amount of traffic into the

    edge application (face recognition app) was measured when the number of vehicle connections was increased by one every 40 seconds • It was confirmed that the traffic into the edge app remained constant Note: This graph should be used as just one example only because the emulation software was unstable during the experiment, that might affect data.
  19. #ONESummit What We Learned from 2 PoC Experiences • Open

    Source Accelerates Innovation! • In the past, we needed the help of carriers and telecom equipment vendors to conduct these kind of experiments • With the open networking technologies, end users like us can now build and experiment with mobile networks on our own
  20. #ONESummit Summary • Use cases and challenges of connected cars

    • How edge computing is expected to be the technology to solve the challenges • Challenges in realizing automotive edge computing • Possible approaches and simple implementations
