Cover Story: The figure illustrates a video monitoring platform for wide rural areas not covered by Internet access. The platform comprises a backbone mesh network and a number of video transmitter devices.
The backbone network is an SDN/NFV flying ad-hoc network (FANET), whose nodes are drones equipped with computing units, each hosting an NFV infrastructure (NFVI) point of presence (POP) to run the virtual service elements constituting the platform at the application level.
Video transmission is realized with video transmitter drones and fixed wireless IP cameras, all sending video transmissions of portions of the considered rural area. Receivers of the video monitoring service are people who access the platform through a smartphone, tablet or personal computer to monitor one or more portions of the rural area.
