Not sven sure how this is relevant. First of all the virtualization happens not on a global scale but quite local to whatever you can the base station in technical terms. Secondly there is no requirement in futuure standards to be as strict as LLE on that level. Lastly this is a few years out and obviously specialized hardware would be in place. It's kinda pointless to assume that this has to run on general purpose hardware.
Where does this idea come from that this virtualization has to happen on the other side of the world?

How does that in any way apply to what you transmit over your network? > Where you got the idea that I assume the ENB has to be on other side of the world ? Because your comment about latency implied that.

We are talking about ENB here, core LTE network is already virtualized. >Because your comment about latency implied that. Goal with ENB virtualization is to have single or few server farms per city, unlike today where ENBs are spread all over the city, and such usecase is still problematic with latencies - been there, done that.
