Unified Fog Computing Architecture Integrating O-RAN, MEC, and OneM2M

Fifth-generation (5G) networks and the Internet of Things (IoT) demand unprecedented levels of scalability and ultra-low latency. Addressing these needs requires not only advanced radio technologies but also a cohesive integration of diverse architectural standards. In this paper, we present a unified fog computing framework inspired by ETSI and OneM2M technical literature that merges the Open Radio Access Network (O-RAN) architecture, Multi-Access Edge Computing (MEC), and the OneM2M IoT standard. This approach enables real-time resource allocation, reduces end-to-end latency, alleviates network congestion, and streamlines interoperability across heterogeneous deployments. Through a simulated testbed, we demonstrate how MEC and OneM2M elements can use near-RT RIC intel to optimize service delivery. The results highlight the feasibility and potential performance gains of an integrated O-RAN-MEC-OneM2M environment, paving the way for more robust, scalable, and efficient 5G IoT solutions.
