5G RAN Slicing for Verticals: Enablers and Challenges [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE 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

Serving HTC and Critical MTC in a RAN Slice [PDF]

open access: yes2021 IEEE 22nd International Symposium on a World of Wireless, Mobile and Multimedia Networks (WoWMoM), 2021
We consider a slice of a radio access network where human and machine users access services with either high throughput or low latency requirements. The slice offers both eMBB and URLLC service categories to serve HTC (Human-Type Communication) and MTC (Machine-Type Communication) traffic.

Going Green in RAN Slicing

open access: yesCoRR, 2023
Network slicing is essential for transforming future telecommunication networks into versatile service platforms, but it also presents challenges for sustainable network operations. While meeting the requirements of network slices incurs additional energy consumption compared to non-sliced networks, operators strive to offer diverse 5G and beyond ...

The Impact of RAN Slice Bandwidth Subpartitioning on Slice Performance

open access: yes2022 International Wireless Communications and Mobile Computing (IWCMC), 2022
Network slicing in 5G RAN enables building logical networks on top of physical infrastructure. In case of RAN spectrum resources are divided into small bandwidth parts then, the network function in core network, namely Network Slice Admission Control Function (NSACF) enables to limit the count of user equipments (UE) and packet data unit (PDU) sessions
