Abstract: According to the development of the mobile communication technology and artificial intelligence technology,there are more and more mobile inspection equipments which will be used in the surveillance field. That will create tons of data and huge transmission press for the mobile network. MEC (Multi-access Edge Computing) servers may be one of the methods to solve this problem if they will be used in the edge of the mobile network. In this paper, the intelligent and mobile process of the video surveillance is introduced first, and the coordination between the cloud technology and the edge computing technology in video surveillance area is then given in brief. The main topics of this paper are what MEC is and how the MEC technology will be used in the video surveillance service.

Key words: video surveillance, artificial intelligence, edge computing, MEC, 5G
