CUDA-supported 5G multi-access edge computing modifications on 5G-air-simulator

In the recent years, 5G radio and core networking researches have become very popular because of its potential to be one of the promising technologies in the future with its unique use cases. Because of the specific nature of the 5G radio and core infrastructure, researchers in this area need special simulators and development sets to evaluate their hypothesis. However, these tools are not enough to cover the needs of the research areas of 5G architecture, and there are open areas. With this work, we are trying to improve one of the commonly used 5G simulator’s, 5G-air-simulator [1], simulating abilities by adding GPGPU capable MEC (Multi-access Edge Computing) support to it, which is a first in the literature.
