Patent attributes
Systems and methods for distributed edge computing to deliver multi-access edge computing (MEC) and cellular access on a mobile network. The edge computing platform reduces latency and increases network throughput to devices by locating edge server nodes in close proximity to the devices. The systems and methods include a network of edge platform nodes operable to provide enhanced mobile coverage and accelerated content delivery for private and/or public mobile network operator (MNO) customers. The present invention is operable to create a private cellular network, wherein the cellular wireless network is also accessible by devices of mobile networks outside of the private cellular network. while still maintaining necessary privacy and quality of service. The present invention is also operable to create a public cellular network using the same node infrastructure and edge computing platform. At least one node is registered in a global registry using a hypertext transfer protocol (HTTP) POST request to a global service address, and the global registry is associated with the at least one platform.
