Abstract: The advent of 5G has ushered in an era of unprecedented connectivity, driven by enhanced Mobile Broadband (eMBB), Ultra-Reliable Low-Latency Communications (URLLC), and massive Machine-Type Communications (mMTC). However, achieving the low latency and computational efficiency required by these services necessitates a fundamental shift in network architecture. Edge Computing in 5G Radio Access Networks (RAN) addresses these challenges by decentralizing processing capabilities, bringing computation closer to end users. This paper explores the integration of Edge Computing in 5G RAN, detailing its architecture, enabling technologies, deployment strategies, and the associated challenges. Key use cases and their implications for future networks are discussed, underpinned by technical insights and industry standards.

Keywords: Edge Computing, 5G RAN, Low Latency, MEC, Network Architecture, URLLC, eMBB.
