Abstract
AbstractThe fifth-generation (5G) technology promises to provide agile, scalable, and programmable network services in order to respond to the myriad of applications and connected devices of vertical industries. It aims to boost the network capacity, throughput, energy, and spectral efficiencies while reducing latency for sub-milliseconds. In order to fulfill the diverse requirements of industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) applications, drastic changes have been proposed by several telecommunication bodies for the radio access network (RAN) and core. In this chapter, we aim to study comprehensively the 5G architectural frameworks proposed by telecommunication bodies and standards for public and private 5G networks. Furthermore, this chapter provides an in-depth study on the key 5G enabling technologies such as software-defined network (SDN), network functions virtualization (NFV), network slicing, artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML), and multi-access edge computing (MEC). Moreover, 5G simulators and projects are explored and compared considering features, advantages, and limitations.KeywordsFifth generation (5G)Radio access networks (RAN)Software-defined networking (SDN)Network functions virtualization (NFV)Network slicingMulti-access edge computing (MEC)
