Abstract:
The value of data transmission has surprisingly increased in the past years. Years ago, transmission of a few by telegraph systems satisfied human needs. But the amount of data transmitted increases exponentially and that is where engineers face real challenges. In the first generation of mobile networks, the voice was transmitted using Analog technology but in the second generation it switched to digital systems. In third and fourth generation systems data rate and quality of service was increased. A big change from the third to fourth generation networks was being an all IP network, meaning everything including voice and data were transmitted in packet switched networks. This creates challenges for voice and video systems since they are really sensitive to delay, jitter and packet loss. IP multimedia service was designed in order to handle these traffics. On the other hand, virtualization is a new technology in 5G networks with serveral benefits for operators. In this thesis we create a platform for testing virtual IMS and coduct several tests including auto scaling and livemigration on this platform and will discuss the results
