Multi-domain anomaly detection in a 5G network
With the advent of 5G, mobile networks are becoming more dynamic and will therefore present a wider attack surface. To secure these new systems, we propose a multi-domain anomaly detection method that is distinguished by the study of traffic correlation on three dimensions: temporal by analyzing message sequences, semantic by abstracting the parameters these messages contain, and topological by linking them in the form of a graph. Unlike traditional approaches, which are limited to considering …

Cost-Efficient Design for 5G-Enabled MEC Servers under Uncertain User Demands
Mobile edge computing (MEC) enhances the performance of 5G networks by enabling low-latency, high-speed services through deploying data units of the base station on edge servers located near mobile users. However, determining the optimal capacity of these servers while dynamically offloading tasks and allocating computing resources to meet uncertain user demands presents significant challenges. This paper focuses on the design and planning of edge servers with the dual objectives of minimizing …

However, it also brings frequent and unnecessary handover challenges to high-speed mobile user equipment (UE), resulting in unstable communication and degraded quality of service. Traditional handovers ignore the type of target next-generation Node B (gNB), resulting in high-speed UEs being able to be handed over to any gNB.

We prove many new slope inequalities involving $u_f$ and some other invariants of the fibration. As applications: (1) we prove a new Xiao-type bound on $u_f$ with respect to $g$ for non-isotrivial fibrations: \[ u_f< g\frac{5g-2}{6g-3}. \] In particular this implies that if $f$ is not locally trivial and $u_f=…
