AirSlice: A Network Slicing Framework for UAV Communications

Network slicing technology delivers tailored network resources to individual applications on demand. This article first studies the network demands of the most popular UAV applications. These applications are classified according to their quality of service (QoS) requirements. A novel network slicing framework, AirSlice, is designed in the 5G domain to enable differentiated QoS support for UAV applications. Proof-of-concept deployment of AirSlice is presented. AirSlice intends to inspire new businesses, new operations, and new experiences for both operators and UAV service providers.
