Systems and Methods for Providing Customized Virtual Wireless Networks Based on Service Oriented Network Auto-creation
First Claim
1. A network management entity for providing a customized virtual wireless network, the system comprising:
- a service-oriented virtual network auto-creation (SONAC) module executed by a computing device that is connected to a wireless network, the SONAC module configured to receive service requirement data from the wireless network and create a service customized virtual network (VN) according to the service requirement data, the service requirement data describing one or more service requirements;
wherein the SONAC module comprises an interface to interact with;
a software-defined topology (SDT) component, the SDT component used by the SONAC module to determine a service customized logical topology;
a software-defined resource allocation (SDRA) component that maps the logical topology to physical network resources within the wireless network; and
a software-defined protocol (SDP) component that determines an end-to-end data transport protocol for communication between a first device and a second device via the wireless network.
