The subcontractors are: the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.consorzio-cini.it\/index.php\/it\/\">CINI<\/a> Consortium (skilled in security and in virtualization techniques based on containers), the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.unipd.it\/\">University of Padova<\/a> (skilled in manage and orchestration platforms of elements of virtualized network) and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.athonet.com\/\">Athonet<\/a> (enterprice that developed 5G technologies).<\/p>\n<p>The VIBES project aims at developing a test bed, which will be useful to validate 5G use-cases, where satellite either complements or replace the default terrestrial backhaul. On the other hand, VIBeS pursues the integration of the satellite specific VNFs, grouped as a virtual PEP (vPEP) application, with a 5G-ready Core Network (CN) in order to demonstrate the deployment of a 5G end-to-end service \u201cslice\u201d including satellite resources.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, vPEP solution foresees technology solutions tailored to optimize performance of the most common TCP\/IP applications (i.e. Web browsing, M2M, Web streaming) as well as to enable cutting-edge satellite-based services, such as capacity bonding, dynamic and seamless flow migration and caching. Definitively, vPEP will allow to enable a satellite component as the advanced application when useful to fulfil specific service requirements.<\/p>\n<p>The status of the project is concluded with the validation and performance testing of the solutions identified. The test bed is ready, operational and it can be used to validate 5G architectures and solutions. The next 12 months period the testbed will be online and at ESA disposal. The figure shows the test bed architecture.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/artes.esa.int\/projects\/vibes\">Link to project site<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-3909\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nitel.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/vibes-diagram.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"921\" height=\"589\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nitel.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/vibes-diagram.png 921w, https:\/\/www.nitel.it\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/02\/vibes-diagram-480x307.png 480w\" sizes=\"(min-width: 0px) and (max-width: 480px) 480px, (min-width: 481px) 921px, 100vw\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>2017- The project is program financed ESA, the goal is to design, fulfil and assess VNF-PEP virtual network element which allows the management optimization in 5G. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":3910,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2744","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-projetcs"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nitel.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2744","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nitel.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nitel.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nitel.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nitel.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2744"}],"version-history":[{"count":6,"href":"https:\/\/www.nitel.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2744\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":3921,"href":"https:\/\/www.nitel.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2744\/revisions\/3921"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nitel.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/3910"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.nitel.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2744"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nitel.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2744"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.nitel.it\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2744"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
