NETWORK SLICING FOR 5G AND BEYOND 5G: A COMPREHENSIVE SURVEY

Abstract

With so much conjecture regarding the performance of a new wireless communication standard (5G), further study was required to take into consideration the difficulties it poses. 5G is regarded as a multi-system support because of its capacity to supply the benefits of vertical industries and the huge interconnection of devices. We must provide the infrastructure to link the wide range of devices and applications we have today. Because of this, network slicing has become a vital technology for the communications network to meet its requirements. Of better understand the many approaches to cutting the next-generation mobile network (NGMN) into smaller, more manageable pieces, this article looks at the use of technologies like "Network Function Virtualization (NFV)" and "Software Defined Networking (SDN)." ML methods to network slicing for networks beyond 5G and the benefits of resource management and mobility prediction by applying ML techniques are also discussed and addressed in detail. ML approaches are also studied and explored.
