Deterministic Layer-2 Ring Network with Autonomous Dynamic Gate Shaping for Multi-Service Convergence in 5G and Beyond

We propose autonomous dynamic gate shaping and rerouting according to real-time traffic-state for enhancing IoT-traffic throughput on deterministic Layer-2 network that also accommodates latency-sensitive mobile front-haul. System-level demonstrations show throughput improvement from 3.9Gbps to 7.9Gbps.
