Experimental Assessment of Drone Computing Offloading in Real 5G Operator Networks
The core message of this article is that the feasibility of offloading computationally intensive drone applications to 5G edge computing platforms depends on the specific network architecture and configuration, and that a private carrier-grade 5G standalone network with co-located edge resources can provide significantly better performance compared to a commercial 5G non-standalone network with semi-centralized edge resources.
