Abstract
Embodiments for network virtualization of user equipment (UE) in a wireless communication network. A trigger may be received from a user equipment (UE) indicating potential UE mobility away from a remote virtual machine (VM) instance on a host server collocated on an eNodeB in the wireless communication network. One or more identifiers (ID) of one or more potential host servers collocated on one or more alternative eNodeBs may be determined for receiving the UE. VM replication may be provided to the one or more potential host servers to enable continuation of the remote VM instance.
