Abstract

Virtualization technology supports the execution of software unrelated to the hardware environment through the decoupling of software and hardware. Additionally, it enables network slicing, allowing one physical device to be divided and used by a function or service by supporting sharing with isolation. Virtualization enables flexible platform use, allowing a variety of services to be launched without changes or additions to the hardware platform. We describe virtualization technology trends in satellite/mobile communication systems. Basic concepts and technical definitions are included, and the current status of research and development by domestic and foreign organizations, including the Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute, is analyzed. Finally, future prospects and implications are discussed.
