Proposed Signalling Service-Based Architecture

Performance Evaluation
Convergence of 3GPP 5G and N3BN in SSBA
Conclusion, Acknowledgement, and References VI. CONCLUSION In this paper, we have proposed a signalling service-based architecture for MBS that offers enhanced flexibility to select a delivery method based on resource availability, and results in improved network scalability by handling UE signalling as a service. Besides, it also facilitates the convergence of 3GPP 5G cellular broadband and N3BNs in the landscape of B5G. The simulations and performance evaluations were performed to demonstrate that the proposed SSBA outperforms 3GPP 5G architecture, exhibiting enhanced modularity, scalability, and a reduced number of signalling messages in the MBS session establishment procedure. In the future, we would like to perform the evaluation of the converged SSBA mobile network.
