5G RAN Slicing for Verticals: Enablers and Challenges [PDF]
IEEE Communications Magazine, 2019 This article investigates the slicing concept in the 5G RAN with the related challenges and research problems. The objective is to identify the plausible options for implementing the slicing concept at the RAN level by the mobile network operator to respond to the needs of verticals. We start by identifying the different slice granularity options, that
