Low-latency Function-dedicated Network Providing Sustained and Stable Services.

NTT is investigating a function-dedicated network (FDN), which consists of a combination of optical and wireless networks with edge computing, to provide services meeting various network requirements simultaneously on the same infrastructure. NTT Access Network Service Systems Laboratories has been researching and developing a low-latency FDN to achieve continuous and stable service provision by meeting the service-performance requirements of low latency and low jitter. This article provides an overview and features of our low-latency FDN. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
