Abstract :
In this paper, we propose a new architecture for LTE/EPC network by leveraging the Openflow technology. We focus on making detail procedures for initial attach and default bearer setup in Openflow-enabled LTE/EPC network. By numerical analysis, we show the reduction of the signaling load of this procedure in our architecture compared to that in the traditional LTE/EPC architecture.
